Gutted...bloody tesco

Got my shopping from Tescos this week cause oh wanted the fuel voucher (usually try to avoid them like the plague) Anyway a while ago we used to get the boxes of 8 southern fried chicken to put into wraps but we hadn't had them for ages so I decided to get them this week. Went to make them last night, only to realise there were only 4 in the bloody box and they were the same price as the 8 last time we bought them. Because of this ended up having to make something else for the kids. Don't know why it bothered me so much just annoying they can warrant selling half the amount for the same price. :mad: :mad: :mad:

Everything's shrinking!

Loyd Grosman sauces were 450g, now 325g or something;
Schloer was 1l, now 750ml;
Walkers Sensations were 130g, now 120g.

And on, and on.

They're all at it.

I believe Les Cadburys Fingres are about half the size they used to be. The packets have gradually got smaller over the last 18 months or so.

Seems like they are just trying the BS us they think people won't realise if the prices aren't going up the sizes are going down!!
