Comment on Shrinkflation is out of control

Album@lemmy.ca ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

I’m totally with you that shrinkflation is an issue.

But these nofrills packages are intentionally priced at an even value like $10. to the point that the price is written directly on the package not an in store label that they can update. I get things like chicken and sausage patties like this too. So instead of putting in 3 and updating the price to $15 or whatever they just take one out.

Additionally fish is not a staple good, generally fish is sold at “market price” because it’s affected by populations and seasons and prices for fish vary significantly through the years because of this.

But again I agree and the best thing to do is pay attention and not buy things that you don’t think are worth.
