It’s not your imagination, not only did the packaging for their Bathroom Tissue change, but so did the quantity!

I went to costco yesterday to stock up. when I got the 2 packages next to each other I saw a change. Instead of a quantity of 36, it was 30! That’s 6 less.

Looks like Oreo Cookies got downsized! But wait, that’s not all!
Looks like Dawn shrunk in product size

Shortly after Kleenex reduced the number of sheets. Which was after the 2009 tissue size reduction they put out.

It looks ‘bigger’ but the truth is they redesigned this bottle of hand soap to disguise the fact that they reduced the amount in the bottle!!!!! Just check out the following picture. It went from 11.25 oz to 9.375 oz!!!

It seems that Brawn paper towels got shrunk! Check out the before & after.

Just when I thought things were slowing down, I get a tip from a reader about the pampers diaper shrinkage! Will it ever stop?

Don’t you just love it when the manufacture puts out a lower quantity box when the higher quantity is STILL on the shelf! Makes for an easy photo opportunity.  so yes people, your groceries are shrinking while the prices keep rising!  The older box had 40 bags, the newer box has only 34!  That’s 6 bags missing! egads!

It appears that Gilette raised prices on these razors, then decreased the number in the box! If we do the math, the previous price per unit was $2.75. With the new price and the decreased units its $4.33! Ouch! buying disposable razors might not be worth the price

Even dog food is getting hit by food shrinkray!  Purina One Puppy Large Breed Puppy Formula went from 20 lbs to just 18lbs!!! Yikes  is nothing spared!  at least you dog lovers now know it’s not just you.  The bag of dog food has shrunk!

Kleenex has downsized their individual tissues sizes

It use to be 8.4 by 8.4 now it’s 8.2 by 8.4 inches
Same thing on the 184 tssues:

Of course Kleenex’ talking heads have this to say:

In recent months, we have been faced with escalating prices for pulp and rapidly changing energy costs. Similar to other manufacturers, we cannot absorb these increased costs indefinitely without making an adjustment. While one of our competitors recently increased their price by six percent, we chose to maintain our existing price but decreased the number of sheets in some cartons. This direction allows us to offer lower promotional prices.

Also, we recently adjusted the sheet to a size equal to other tissues currently on the market, standardizing the sheet size in the facial tissue category. –Kimberly-Clark Customer Service
