 Where did you guys buy this Tide?  Is it possible you bought it at a store
 that sells overstock items?  Maybe this Tide was meant for Canada, but
 somehow was bought by one of these stores and it was sold here.  We have a
 couple of stores like this in my area, and every so often you see SI
 products meant for Canada sold there.
 
 The box of Tide I have says: NET WEIGHT 187 OZ (11.62 LB) 5.27 kg
 
 It is all in English.  Let me know if what you are buying is a standard size
 or not.

Giant Food, Goshen Crossing Shopping Center, Gaithersburg, Maryland.

Ironic, since Giant (even though owned by Ahold of Holland) is pretty 
anti-metric -- this is the outfit that labels 2 liter bottles of soda "67.6 
oz" on the shelf label.  To Giant, SI doesn't exist.
