That seems to be the case with a lot of things. Recently they reduced the size of the Reese’s Miniatures Family Bag and good luck trying to find a full half gallon carton of ice cream anymore.
I agree that the companies seem to think that we are all stupid. I don’t know why they don’t just raise the price for the size we have been buying because they raised the price by making the package smaller anyway. I also think that you can find “Premium” ice cream in hal gallons but you will pay more anyway.
One of the things that bugs me is how the English muffins look good-sized in the package,but after toasting… “What is it, a monocle? Put it in my eye?”
Another trick——using sizes like 9.13 oz, 11.9 oz ect. Hoping we won’t notice when it decreases to 9.3, 11.5. I don’t buy cake mixes any more since they reduced the long-standing size from 18 oz to 15.5. Doesn’t fill the 13 × 9 pan any more. I have many old recipes that call for a box of cake mix. I still have several boxes in my freezer, ought on sale. They’re still good.
More: adding water to canned items to make the weight the same, with less product inside. “Water sufficient for processing” used to be the third ingredient in Friskies canned cat food. Now it’s the first ingredient. You can tell they sliced off some of the food along the inside of the can. Define “sufficient”!
I just use Motorcycle Leather and Vinyl Conditioner and Cleaner. It’s a win win result, I get a clean head, nice and conditioned with a great shine. It also helps with wrinkles and protects from the Suns UV Rays. What more could I ask for ? If I run out I can just rub the top of my head on my saddle bags for temporary relief.

Is Brutus a born loser, or did he marry into it?

And thank you Gladys for wearing a one-piece, although you probably could have a gone with a gay 90s style, with lots of coverage.
