Evergreen lawn feed, less for same cost.

Just bought two bags of "Evergreen Complete" lawn feed, but loading it into the car I noticed the bag was smaller than the old one.
The contents are reduced from 14Kg to 12.6 Kg, but cost the same per bag.
However we do get a new design on the bag for free.
Life's dilema do we want to pay more as costs increase, or do we want smaller amounts?

    You can get the same same sort of stuff for about half the price if you buy Wilkinson's own brand. It seems to have the same formulation and has the same coverage rate if (like me) you use one of those push-along spreaders. Focus also do their own brand version for less than Evergreen
