So Seth and I went grocery shopping a couple of days ago. It's been a couple months since we've had cold and creamy ice-cream, so we were definitely craving some of our favorite Dreyer's. We each picked out a flavor (Seth--Limited Edition Root Beer Float; me--Loaded Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup; mmmmm) and as we reached into the freezer we noticed something:
THE CARTON IS SMALLER!!!
It's now only 1.5 quarts, instead of 2...but, of course the price is still the same! Downsizing is nothing but a sneaky price increase. And it's happening with everything: cereal, chips, mayonnaise,and even paper towels don't have as many sheets! Do they think we don't notice these things? What's next, buying a gallon of milk in a "convenient" 3 quart size? Am I the only one that's bothered by all of this?
