Recently bought a case of Propel vitamin enhanced water. The case contained 24 x 500 ml bottles. But on the case was printed "24 16.9 FL. OZ. (500mL) Bottles   NET WT. 405.6 FL. OZ. (11.994 L).  I called them and asked why don't they get someone with some intelligence to design the packing. Obviously if we have 25 x 500 mL, we have 12 Liters and Fluid ounce is not a weight, it's a volume. The bone heads they have in some of these companies are truly amazing.
