I remember Purina doing that to dog food. Way back when we were 1st married. My wife called and said “ they have our dog food on sale for like $5 off a bag. Things were tight but we decided to buy three bags to save $15. A couple days later we realized the bag was the same size but it had like 8 less pounds in it. Last Purina we ever bought.

Started with icecream 10 years ago. A half gallon went to .375 gallons. Then candy bars. Now, lots of candy bars are "two in a pack" which sounds good except they just took a regular candy bar, cut it in half, and eliminated about 1/2" of candy bar.

It used to be common practice to increase prices. It's become common practice to shrink the size of things being sold.

Stagger your wraps and you will be ok. Just don't buy the cheap stuff, unless you want to get in touch with your inner self.

This is a good analogy for the economy too.

Did u burn the first bag?

My Montgomery Wards microwave (yes, it is old), cooked popcorn perfectly at 3 minutes for 30 years. Now it burns it at under 3 minutes due to less popcorn kernels in the bag!

I just bought 5 bsgs of mulch at HD. When I got home I compared the bags to one left from last year, last years was 2 cubic feet and now they are 1.5 cubic feet and the price was the same as last years sale price. Even my shampoo bottle is a few ounces smaller.

Width isn't as bad as thickness. I hate cheap thin stuff. It sucks when your finger goes through it.
