German humor. (Yes, seriously)

They joke about efficiency/optimization etc. One of them is a man visiting a small grocery shop with the intention of buying some olives.

It start by him asking the price for a glass of olives. What about two? What about 5? etc. prices per glass goes down for each increase.

Then you see him leaving the shop with several large boxes of olives.
