Marketinh Ploy, or. . .

 You call it.   


Last time (April) I got this product it came in a 16 oz jar at a bit over 19 bucks. The "New look, same formula" jar I bought today contains 1.7 oz at $21.49. 

That, my friends, is fractionally more than one-tenth the amount of product as the earlier purchase at a significantly increased purchase price. I possess maths skills sufficient to calculate the percentage price increase but I have other things to do. Not the least of which is to conclude this little rant.

In how many ways did our consumer-based economy rip you off today?
