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?

It's everywhere and constant. Joe was just griping about the new blueberry container that has a peel off plastic covering. Now he can't use it to store blueberries after you wash them. I don't know how people with kids are affording this.
How? Me, too. Seems to me we all know what is going on and yet we resign ourselves as powerless to do anything about it.
