Grocery Shrinkage hits again, this time hitting the “BIG Roll” Tp you find at the drug stores like Walgreen’s. Oh sure, they don’t reduce the number of uses, just the max weight.  Wait, does that mean that we have less paper per square? oh that’s not good.  Most people that use that scratchy stuff usually need several squares to properly complete the job.    Oh, and the sale use to be 3 for a buck, now it’s 2 for a buck.  from .33 a roll to .50! Yikes

It started at 16 ounces, now it’s 11 ounces and the coffee grounds are “fluffy” LOL ok?  This video shows how a variety of food products have shrunk over the years, while the price remains the same, and the tricks manufacturers use so we don’t notice the differences.

WOW, not even cheese is safe from shrinkage! Just take a look at this pic.

mini baby bell pre-wrapped cheese was 132 grams, now it’s 120.  The pieces are still 6, just 20 grams per serving instead of 22.  Thoughts?
