Has anyone noticed the subtle changes manufacturers are using to cut their costs but still charge you the same.
Dawn foam pump liquid used to be 13 fl oz now its 10 fl oz
Scott blue shop towels used to be 60 sheets now its 55 sheets.
Is this American creativity at its worse here folks????, now it makes you sit up and pay attention to what else they are doing you didnt notice yet.
watch carefully people.

I have noticed. The dogfood I normally buy used to be in a 50lb bag, then it went to a 44lb bag, now it is 40lbs. Still the same price. You will also notice that boxed food it getting thinner, with less in it, but is still the same height and width. That way sitting on the shelf it still looks the same as always.
