| From cellphones to the size or packages of food, have you noticed any product being made smaller and smaller as time goes on? | |

| Nice marketing trick. Decrease size while keeping the price the same. But now you need more so you have to buy extra. | |

| Oh, I definitely have. I don't mind it for certain things where I'd rather pay more or have a little less as long as they don't compromise the quality. | |

| Have you seen the size of reeses peanut butter cups lately? Even the Vitamin Water, the bottles have shrunk, especially if you buy them in a 6 or 8 pack. The prices surely have not shrunk though. | |

| I just got a small coffee and a coffee cake muffin at Dunkin' Donuts and it seems both were smaller than in the past.
On a good note (even tho it is costing me money) I got a Milky Way Dark at the checkout line the other day and it seems to be about a third smaller than they used to be. But, I'm not supposed to be eating them anyhow, so less damage to my diet. | |
