I'm starting to get really ****** off with this country tbh. We seem to live in some weird social experiment where everyone is trying to see how far they can push their luck beforesomething gets done, and they're getting away with it. The latest one I've noticed is the consistency of my smoothies. I love smoothies and go through at least one a week, but have noticed recently that they're so watered down they should really be called juice. And it's everything, almost every single product in a supermarket is now smaller, and in order to get the normal price, you have to scan your nectar/clubcard/whatever. If you don't, then **** you - that's their attitude.
It's not like they're struggling either, these companies are all posting record profits. This is pure greed, plain and simple. The arrogance of it
I really noticed it a few weeks ago when we drove through France, Belgium and Holland, the stuff you buy there is generally bigger. Even just a packet of gum, each piece was bigger and I got more per pack.
To make matters worse, the French passed a bill stating that if the customer was paying the same for less product, they would need to be informed by a sticker on the shelf.
Our limpdicked government declined that bill because "it helps with obesity" or some other nonsense.
Here's an interesting vid on the subject:
