Bought a new pack of 32° Heat bas layer pants from Costco. I notice immediately it has changed. The thread count definitely decreased. Older version, like a year ago, it cannot reveal my skin or barely reveal on my knees even under strong light, now this new pair is more like a pantyhose. I guess it won’t be as effective. Might as well change your logo to 40F heat 😤🤷. Quality department at Costco please notice and stop this bs.

Also I'm pretty sure the price increased. I think it used to be around 1.87 now 1.93. Paying more for less

Same price as the previous extra litre. just 75% of the previous size. Surely nobody will notice?

I’ve got cat litter “subscribe & save” set up on Amazon. Noticed that Arm & Hammer had changed the packaging when this month’s box was delivered, and of course I knew what that meant. Sometime between August and October 2026 Arm & Hammer cut 3lbs of litter without changing the price. Both of these cost me $34.99- I got the 37lb box in August and the 34lb box today. SMH. Shame on you, Arm & Hammer.

Can't wait to see that "New Low Price" sign. This just started happening with a lot of stuff at Sam's Club. I'm finding out something's days Out Of Stock, this is the reason

Photo of the bundle, the pack, and the old bundle's cover. Really scummy. I suspected this brand removed some amount of product from the kitchen paper also, I felt that it was smaller in size per sheet than before.

Old up top. New down below

Of course the price was the exact same between shopping trips. This was the last time I buy Tide.

I mean, it's going to happen with the way this year has gone, what with th wars and fuel and weather, JUST STOP FUCKING TRYING TO TELL US INFLATION IS ONLY 3.5% AND THE MARKET IS HEALTHY, A HEALTHY MARKET DOSE NOT RANDOMLY AND REGULARLY PRICE GOUGE CONSUMERS BY 25%

Edit: I know at the end of the day it's something I have to buy maybe four times a year. It's the deceitful deceptive ways they go about it. Changing the container to appear at a glance to be the same size as last time. I bought the new smaller bottle from the buy it again section on Amazon

Looked at the quantity and price per unit changes of 15 items mentioned in the BuzzFeed article 35 Absolutely INFURIATING Photos That Prove Shrinkflation Is Alive And Well

Here's the original posts for each item:

Well, this is just insulting.

Dove deodorant :(

Dawn Dish soap new and Improved bottle!

Not only did they reduce the product by 25% they also DOUBLED the price!

Scotch Shipping Tape RIPOFF - 125 inches LESS per roll

My coffee has shrunk

Simply Ruffles Shrunk!

Oxi Clean subscribe and save notification - Smaller AND more expensive.

Deodorant Shrinkflation (looks like different products but they are same DPCI with size discrepancy between them)

Ferry-Morse at it again

Same price, 2 fewer ounces

Simply small

Just a “new look” right…

It dawned on me today....

Atkins went from 5 to 4 bars after "new look"

Saw these Pringle’s the other day for all of the same price. Fortunately, there was one remaining can with the original amount. It’s crazy that 24grams have disappeared within three iterations of the same product. Disgusting

Jif told the public "no change to the product itself." Their own customer service just admitted to me that the formula changed.

I've eaten Jif Creamy for nearly 60 years. My latest jar (40 oz, UPC 5150072001) tasted wrong — different flavor, different texture. I still had some of the old jar left, so I taste-tested them side by side. Significantly different.

The labels show why:

OLD: Roasted Peanuts, Sugar, Contains 2% or Less of: Molasses, Fully Hydrogenated Vegetable Oils (Rapeseed and Soybean), Mono and Diglycerides, Salt

NEW: Roasted Peanuts, Sugar, Contains 2% or Less of: Fully Hydrogenated Vegetable Oils (Rapeseed and Soybean), Salt, Molasses

The emulsifiers (mono and diglycerides) are gone entirely, and molasses — the ingredient that gives Jif its signature flavor — dropped to last on the list. Same UPC, two different formulas — and Smucker's own spec sheet for this jar still lists the old formula: https://pp.smuckers-afh.marlindev.com/products-pdf/jif-40-ounce-creamy-peanut-butter-8-count.pdf

Smucker's August 2026 press release for the redesign, from their own FAQ: "Is there any change to the product itself? No. The Jif portfolio continues to offer the same iconic taste."

So I called them. The representative took my information, said she would forward it to the proper team — and acknowledged that the formulation had changed.

Sixty years of buying a product gets you a quiet recipe change and a press release that denies it. Read your labels.

If you're a numbers person: $2 for 100g is $2.00 per 100g. Drop to 90g at the same price, and it becomes roughly $2.22 per 100g, so about 11% more per gram.

In countries like Australia, our retailers need to show unit prices, which helps you compare products. However, these labels don't tell you what your favourite block of chocolate used to weigh. More and more Aussies are noticing their childhood favourites weigh exponentially less than their memory serves, but it's not a memory problem...

Do you have any Aussie before-and-after examples?

Despite being taller, the Charmin Mega XL seems to be less total sq ft. First picture is the newer one

I found a picture online showing it used to be 400g

I'll start by saying I attempted to message the mods on the 16th, but so far I heard nothing back. I didn't see much in the rules about this... So here goes...

I’ll be honest, I hate self promotion, so this feels a bit awkward to post. But I built something I think this sub might actually find useful.

It’s called Shrinkflated (https://shrinkflated.com). You scan a barcode in the store, or type the number in, and if the product is on record it shows you the old size, the new size, how much less you’re getting, and where that info came from.

It has 308 products on it so far, mostly Canada and the US, so a lot of what you scan won’t be on there yet. It really only gets better as people use it. If you catch one that’s missing, you can add it with a photo or a link, and the next person who scans that barcode will see it.

It’s free, no ads, no accounts, and it doesn’t collect personal info, just what people choose to submit. It works in any browser, and there’s an Android app on Google Play if you’d rather have that: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.shrinkflated.app

I’m also not totally sold on the design yet. If it feels cluttered or busy or hard to use, tell me. I think the core idea works, but I’d rather hear what would make it better from the people who actually catch this stuff. Some of the records link back to posts from this sub as their source, so if one of them is yours and you’d rather it not be on there, just let me know. I figured it would be okay hopefully with people since it might bring attention to this sub too.

Any suggestions, products you want on it, or things that bug you about it, I’m all ears. I hope you guys like it, since you were one of the inspirations for it. Also my hatred of shrinkflation.

OH I should add I also made it so you can report ingredients that are just getting worse etc as well.

Thanks!

New flavor, smaller size. Same price. New Toasty Nuts 0.5 oz, original 0.68 oz.
