"Oh, food inflation's not that bad."

President's Choice coffee - which the grocery shrink-ray hit, so it's not even a two-pound container anymore - at one of Loblaw's chains here in my town now has a regular price of $26.

$26.

Without trying to be all Get Off My Lawn, I used to pay $6 for a larger container.

It's no longer a half-gallon carton of milk.

It used to be 2 quarts (half a gallon), but now it is only 1.8 quarts.

Their website still shows the old size, when it was bigger.

My wife was tricked. She came home and said she bought a gallon of milk (2 of these cartons), but actually we only received 0.92 gallon for our money.

Motherfuckers. #Shrinkflation has come for your Ritter sport.
Upps. #shrinkflation auch bei Trumpf Edle Tropfen. Gleich mal 4 Pralinen weniger drinnen.
Von 250gr auf 200gr reduziert.
2/ #Enshittification is ruining everything. I generated a long-format essay about just how deep it goes and how #CorporateGreed is leveraging science to control consumers. This is a deep-dive into the depths of corporate deception and deceit. From #Shrinkflation to #BehavioralEconomics multinational corporate giants are seeking not just to compete, but to dominate markets. And they’re employing #surveillance, dark patterns, nudging, dynamic pricing and outright deceit to grow their ill-gotten profits.

The Age Of Enshittification

How Predatory Corporations Weaponize Science to Deceive, Downsize, and Dominate the Modern Consumer Charles McHenry, 06/01/26 I. Intro...

Eindrücke vom gestrigen ersten Tag des #GutesMorgenFestival der #GLSBank in der #Jahrhunderthalle in #Bochum ( #NRW).

Gut: Tolle Workshops, und mehrere Austeller*innen, die dem Namen des Festivals gerecht werden.

Besonders: #SiebenLinden (#Ökodorf in #SachsenAnhalt), #Shiftphones (quasi ein #Fairphone aus #Hessen), #SOSHumanity ( #Seenotrettung), #Syndikatstiftung (Wohnen ist keine Ware), #fairafric ( #Schokolade made in #Ghana, oft #vegan).

Schlecht: Catering mit #Shrinkflation. Yoga Vidya.

Beim Recycling einer alten Hose Mal die Nähe neuer und alter Hosen verglichen.
Die linke Hose von Levis die vor 2 Jahren gekauft wurde und rechts, eine Hose aus den 90gern von Esprit.
Bei beiden gibt es overlock, normale und Jeansstiche. Ich bin auch nur jemand mit ner Nähmaschine aber alleine die Stiche der alten Hose sehen für mich um einiges hochwertiger aus und es sind im allgemeinen mehr Nähte.

2/ Speaning of #enshittification - I recently generated an in-depth, long-format essay on the subject. Posted it to my recently resurrected #blog. Predatory #corporate practices revealed. Discover how #surveillance, ‘choice architecture and behavioral economics are controlling consumer choices; how greedy companies are using #shrinkflation to maximize profits while consumers suffer; and how corporate giants have weaponized science to deceive, downsize and dominate the modern consumer.
