They're too chickenshit to bump up the price, so invariably this is how they handle it.

For those too lazy to do the math, that's an 11.8% price increase. Equivalent to bumping the price to $19.00 on the old pack.

This has been a thing for a long time, they keep the pack the same but the contents are smaller. It's a bastard trick, and fits the jew perfectly.

They make the inner roll slightly bigger so the outer roll of paper stays the same, and the package the same as you said. Shrinkflation.

when you go to buy detergent, make sure to poke the sticker, sometimes the bottle will have a hole going through it thats hidden by the sticker.

bring a knife so you can easily and quickly expose all those holes in all the bottles.

It just occurred to me why so many companies do this: I'm pretty sure the way inflation is calculated doesn't take these changes in packaging into account. It's a way to slip in price changes without the official inflation numbers being affected.

This is it. Chocolate was the most obvious example. There was an old late night video of some star talking about Cadbury eggs and noticing they were smaller, this was before portion size was a discussion topic, so they claimed people were just getting older and bigger. It wasn't until he put a new egg side by side with an old egg that the difference was impossible to ignore.

Lol, the new pack says "Wide Sheets", but the sheet dimensions are identical from the old. That's more jewish than grabbing dimes out of a fountain.

The left side of the old package says "wide sheets" as well.

Ah, yes, shrinkflation. But why the fuck are you blaming the Jews here? Oh, didn't know they controlled the TP industry.

Because jews practice deception as a way of life and this is deception. Most races other than whites value cunning over integrity, so it's possible that some sand jew, chink, or nigger is responsible, but I still think jews are the more likely culprit.

This is literally a thing. Its called shrinkflation. Also, what's wrong with all of you. Have you not learned how to use the 3 shells?

Always be wary of package redesigns. They're usually hiding something and trying to trick you.

I believe the jackasses call it 'shrinkflation' and is characterized by manufacturers opting to lower the amount of product received while keeping the price the same versus raising the price but getting the default amount.

This has been going on for a while, so this is nothing new. Annoyingly, the food industry has done this blatantly by hiding behind the "portion control" argument to deflect from ripping people off.

Not everything is jews. This is just smart business, it's a tax on the stupid.

It's also an opportunity in the marketplace for someone to step in and offer products at value pricing and gain some major market share.

Why do white people know nothing about business?

Deception is not "smart business" except to people who's idea of smart is practicing deception. It's what separates whites from the rest of the world. Asians, Slavs, niggers, jews ... they all value cunning over integrity.

There is a better way of looking at it I think.

There is no such thing as deception. Magic tricks work not because the magician is being deceptive but because the audience wants to be deceived.

There are no lies on the packaging. There is only re-contextualizing of information and leaving information out. Without the ability to leave information out and without the ability to re-contextualize information humans would not be able to communicate.

To put it another way, just like you can teach someone to become a magician, you can teach people the skills necessary to not become deceived.

The question is always the same: why do people not spend the time to research just enough (it doesn't take much) so they are not deceived?

LOL. The jew is strong in this one.

Instead of training the population to be on the lookout for typical jewish behavior, I think it's better to expel the practicioners.

I remember when I was a kid in the mid '60's, and they used to sell Wrigley's gum at 5¢ for a pack of 5 sticks, and then they bumped the price to 10¢ for 7 sticks and they said "You're getting more for your money". Also, the local news reported that pieces of Bazooka Joe bubble gum were smaller for the same penny. I didn't worry much about gas prices back then.

2-things. 1) stop fucking wasting money on toilet paper. Get yourself a bidet. They're affordable and come with varying options for your delicate candy asses.

2) if you insist on throwing your money away on wiping the shit off your hairy ass.. learn some god damned math. it's not "sheets per roll" that matter. it's the fucking total LENGTH of all the rolls you're buying. (it's given in square feet because sheets are equal in height and length, ...for all you math wizards out there.)

Cost of the pack / the total square feet. That's your cost.

Now, hit a website up and start looking at bidets and save yourself a small fortune on feeding your toilet its after dinner napkins.

Those familiar with mathematics can see from the photo that each sheet is 4 inches long and 4.5 inches wide on both packages. That's a total length of 126' 8" for the new rolls and 141' 8" for the old rolls. The old package contains 1593.75 square feet and the new package contains 1,425 square feet.
