Just buy store brand instead. Vote with your wallet.
Guess I’ll be puttin’ on the “savoury crackers” then
R.I.P. Ritz Biscuits.
2030: What happened to this company?!?
I noticed this with Sainsbury’s own brand cookies. They used to be quite large and now they are slightly larger than the size of my palm.
Just another of yer Brexit rewards, Brits. Elect Nazis and get Nazi shit.
If you are getting 70% for the same price, that’s the same as a **43%** price increase.
Just so you know quite how much you are getting ripped off for.
Did anyone else initially think this was about the hotel?
I was picturing them frantically subdividing to make all the rooms 30% smaller, which was much more fun than the actual story.
Working in a supermarket and occasionally using a backup system that hasn’t been updated on product weights/quantities in packs really showed me how bad shrinkflation is. An enormous quantity of (own and named brand) products now have a few grams less or one fewer item in a pack on the same SKU.
Apparently France are making it law that companies have to state on their packaging when they’ve done this
