Me too. And then there’s the incredible shrinking package phenomenon. The price stays the same. But you’re getting less and less product.

Not only that, but the packaging itself is getting worse. Thinner, cheaper, flimsier.

Shrinkage has sure occurred at the local Fuzzy’s, what with enchiladas getting shorter.

Re: Shrinkage!

No kidding. My favorite orange juice now sells "half gallon" cartons that only hold 56 ounces, or a full 8oz glass of OJ less that they used to sell, at higher prices.

And have you noticed canned tuna fish? Long gone are the days of 6oz cans!
