[QUOTE="donna723, post: 376794, member: 1883"] This is something that has burned me up for a very long time. Two things that are perfect examples are bacon and coffee. We're used to just grabbing a package of bacon and that was always a one-pound package. Suddenly that package wasn't a pound any more, it had gone down to 12 ounces, but the price stayed the same. And what used to be a 1-pound can of coffee is now 12 ounces too but the price stayed the same. I noticed the same thing with the cat food I buy. What used to be a 4-pound bag is now a 3-pound bag but the price stayed the same. I guess they thought that looked better than just raising the price, or maybe they thought that no one would notice?
