Pay More, Get Less: Coffee, Tea, Flour, Soda.....

‎08-29-2011 07:48 PM

I went to the grocery today. I bought Maxwell house Coffee, the can was only 3/4 filled. I've always poured the coffee into my coffee canister and it would fill to the brim. Not today. I bought five pounds of flour and when I got home and weighed it myself on the food scale it was only four pounds. I bought what I thought was 24 cans of Diet Coke only to discover when I got home there were only 20 cans of soda in the box. OK, that was my bad. I should have read the box and the number of cans in the box. The brand of tea I buy is now putting fewer tea bags or sachets in the tea box. The price of these items have all increased. So the consumer is paying more for less product.

Have you noticed this as well? Would going to a warehouse that sells in bulk stop this nonsense, or is it the same? Thanks you in advance.
