Re:Shrinkflation.

I noticed a couple of years ago that the measuring cup in my box of laundry detergent was stealthily increased from 60ml to 75 ml so you use more. Despicable really when we are trying to reduce the load on the environment. I only use half what they suggest anyway.

Latest product to fall - Sard Wonder Spray, from 450ml to 420ml. What angers me the most is the blatant discounted 1/2 price advertising of the shrunk product on it's debut in stores. Big W has the 450ml at $4.40. Woolworths has the newly introduced shrunk product of 420ml at 1/2 price of $3.00 for this week. I have just bought my last ever sard wonder spray!!

What everyone forgets is a few years back now, Mars let everyone know they were downsizing the weight their packs of 12. Theyre the size of Fantales since. Maybe Snickers too (I don't remember). 10 points to Mars for their honesty.
