While I'm pissed off, here's a cute one.A new tube of toothpaste, but what's this then?
A tube used to be 6oz. I still have a box and tube bought previously.
Same brand, smaller 4 oz tube slipped in the old size box, hoping you won't notice until you open the box and see this:
A mistake? Nope. The box is indeed labelled 4 oz, so this charade was done purposely to hide the shrinkflation from casual observation (unless you knew from memory the old one was 6 oz: I had to check the earlier one in my pantry to know.)
Better yet, the cost of living isn't affected; a tube of toothpaste is still x number of dollars.
Lying bastards. Mainstream behaviour in this country, just lie to us all about how good the economy is doing while they lie about everything else.
Do Americans care?
