Dear rfs:ers,
 This weekend I had the joy experiencing some beautiful shrinkflation! I
discovered that toothpaste has gone from 100 ml, to 75 ml, to a new record
50 ml tube! Of course keeping the price unchanged!
 On top of that, the dark chocolate bar we use for baking from time to time
has inched down to 90g from around 125g.
 Since I sell consulting hours, I've been thinking about redefining my
hours to consist of 45 minutes instead of 60 while keeping the price the
same. I hope my customers, in the spirit of shrinkflation will accept
this! ;)

I wish this type of shrink inflation would be criminalized. Just horrible.

I agree! But we must have faith in the market! Sooner or later, the ones that go too far will be punished by competitors who up the sizes again!
