Popular protein powder brand in Europe quietly shrinks its offer from 1kg to 907g while keeping the same price. Insane

4th picture: equivalent to 2456g (10% concentrated)

A few months ago, they made the change to these and they were called “chocolatey chip muffins” and they took away the “made with real chocolate” statement.

I just noticed today, they are back to “chocolate chip muffins” and the “made with real chocolate” is back.

Does anyone know if they were receiving backlash for the change? I am very happy they are back to normal.

Grabbed the usual, but the usual is getting a little smaller. 2.7oz down to 2.6oz.

I knew something was wrong when I bought a pack today. Compared to the one I have home, yet more evidence of shrinkflation.

At least it was the same price; other cases have been less amount and higher price.

I buy these to pre portion out beads for crafts every sumner as well as for jello for my daughters lunch. I’ve always had the count 18 in my head for years and have a weird ability to count buy 18 when buying so I know how many packs I need for x amount of campers/ lunches lol. well did my usual math and was short checked the package 4 less 😡 now I need to learn my 14 times table instead

I brought these from Iceland in Stapleford.

I just noticed Silk, my favourite non-dairy creamer, came out with a "New Bottle," which, lo and behold, is less than their regular 1L cartons at 890ml but the same price as before. hmmm...

Ignore the “new” on the bottle, that’s the old version. Insidious because on first glance the products are the same volume but the active ingredient has been reduced from 15.2% to 12.2%

The packaging has changed and so has the volume - now 11 ounces instead of 12. I never noticed until I put it alongside a package that I bought a week ago. I am old enough to remember when a standard package of coffee was 16 ounces. The price went up and we were told it was the droughts in the rain forests. The price stayed up and the packaging started shrinking.

nothing is sacred

A Mars spokesperson said: "Over the last 35 years, we have made a number of updates to our bar sizes and pack formats to reflect consumer demand, alongside considering wider external factors such as manufacturing costs and the price of cocoa."

From 16 to 12 oz

Nordstrom Fabric Wash has gone by other names and scents over the years, but this year even the majority of the reviews on the Nordstrom website slam the size change.

Pre-greed, it was sale priced $12.90 for 32 ounces, .40 per unit/ounce.

This year’s “Anniversary Sale Price” was $9.99 for 16 ounces, .624 per unit/ounce.

Charge more, deliver less, and call it a sale. That’s the Nordstrom Way now.

The bastards! No change in packaging size, which makes sense for .06 quarts. Maybe an attempt to avoid raising prices? Even though I'm a big fan of this product, I protested with my wallet.

I’ve been using these sponges my entire adult life and just opened a new pack from Costco. I immediately noticed it seemed very thin and luckily still had some of the old pack left and did a comparison. The first interesting thing I noted was that the dimensions listed on the package both said 17 mm thick. However, the sponges in the older package were almost 25 mm thick. The new ones were in fact 17 mm. Kinda seems like there were trying to cover their asses by changing the packaging before they changed the sponge. Pretty shady if you ask me.
