I know the answer to this one. At some point they are going to put the 24 pack on sale; so to be able to say "$3.00 off the regular price" they need to have sold that item for the regular pice. At that point when the 24 pack is $6.99 the 12 pack will be $4.99 or higher.

I'm not sure where the legality of it falls, but I know when I worked in retail at a place that sold beds we always had one at 50% off. We would rotate through 4 models so there was always one at 50% off. However we were told that we were never allowed to discount one of the beds that was normally 50% off when it went back up to regular price.
