Shrinkflation

B.C.

Angus has an interesting take on that:

Here Angus is surprised to find out that another birthday has rolled around. It’s only what seems like three or four months since the last one. Time, like chocolate bars, seems to have suffered from shrinkflation.

Andy and I can relate to that!

    I can relate to this as well.. I was shocked the other day when I purchased a rather cheap can of biscuits to make a pan of Monkey Bread. I remember being able to cut the biscuit into 4 good size pieces…this time, I had to cut the pieces into three’s. lol

  3. Same size packaging. Less inside. And the price is higher.

    Yes!!! time is going by at a stunning seed lately. The older I get, the faster it goes. There is actually a scientific explanation for this, but I have forgotten what it is.

    That annual wellness visit seems to come around earlier every year.

    It really is incredible.

  7. Linda says:

    Oh, yes. Downsizing.

    Yep, I can definitely relate to the shrinkflation thing.

  9. Smaller package bigger price!

    Bob’s Raisn Swirl bread has fewer slices and is smaller in size, also the bread he likes has lost length, therefore fewer slices. They are doing this to keep the price down, I think. Because people will stop buying if it goes up more.
    years ago they went from 5 lbs of sugar to 4 lbs .. sadly shrinkflation has not hit the charge card debts people are running up
