It’s a wretched thing. I only noticed it after the pandemic. They rob us & think we don’t notice. I don’t buy Lurpak but it’s just a swizz. 1 qtr = make it smaller. Qtr2 = put the price up. No one will notice. And eventually folks don’t. Mugs. We’re mugs - ThreadSky

I feel like there needs to be targeted buying. Using butter as an example, everyone agrees not to buy a particular brand. Or not use a particular supermarket for a month. Don't go without but focus the problem on one chain till they address it. Others would be concerned.

Oh I’d love this. I die for a bit of pettiness. However *sighs* not gonna happen will it. We’re such …I’m gonna say it again…mugs

We are, but there are always tipping points. There are more distractions now than ever and getting that group action for sustained periods is hard but there's always a tipping point.

Until then they'll continue to take the piss.

But I’ll bring out my petty ‘nope. Fuck you’ & you will too so there is hope!

There are so many things now that I just don't buy. There were things that were just common buys, that became a bit more expensive, then couldn't see the value, and eventually just became laughably priced and I wouldn't not give them the money.
