Have you bought a half gallon of Breyer’s Vanilla ice cream lately?
The price is the same but the container is no longer a half gallon size. Guess which way the container volume went - smaller or larger? See, that was easy wasn’t it.

Oddly enough, our local BJs Warehouse has started selling half-gallon size Breyers. They had been selling two 1.75 gallon containers banded together. It was a shock to see a half-gallon size again. I forget the price of either offering but remember the prices seemed reasonable compared to a regular grocery store. Of course, we never bought Breyers at the grocery store unless it was on a deeply discounted sale.
Ice cream is sort of like coffee, regarding the packaging.
I noticed the 1/2 gallon became 1.7 qts and then 1.5 qts.
I recall when a 3-lb can of coffee was actually 48 oz. Then, it dropped to 42 oz. Then, 34 oz. Now, 27 oz.

I joke that local stored had to buy new shopping carts with a smaller distance between the slats because too many products were falling through the old cart slats due to product shrinkage.
Correction...” They had been selling two 1.75 gallon containers banded together. “
Should’ve been two 1.5 gallon containers.
