Does "5 times cheaper" even mean 1/5th of the price?
To me, 5 times cheaper implies the starting point is not price of the thing being compared to. "5 times cheaper" sounds like it could be 80% of the price of normal methods.
Method A: $1005
Method B: $1000
Method C: $975
Method C seems to be 5 times cheaper than Method B.
