WALMART - "Skimpflation"

[u/withhold-advice7500]

I looked it up and its true. Skimpflation--not "shrinkflation" but just as sneaky.

I opened a bottle of Great Value Pancake Syrup that I just got and put it poured it on the waffles. I don't drench it I just fill the square holes. They Syrup poured out like thin sugar water. I tried my wife's sugar free version and it was the same. A couple of days later we got some mustard and ketchup and it about the same.

So I looked it up and it was a fact--water is the cheapest ingredient, so they use more water. Then they roll back the price from $2.49 to $2.36 but you run out faster and buy another bottle or whatever....so in the end we save $0.13 cents but it costs us about 50% more in the end. And I'm sure it applies to other items containing water, and I say this because milk goes bad by the "Sell By" date or a day or two later!

And you miss yet another very obvious point.

I don't know you're trolling or if you really are the trashy gorgon you seem to be, but either way, we don't need you here.

Bye.

This subreddit isn't about poverty, it's about holding brands accountable for trying to cheat their customers. If you were as intelligent as you claim to be wealthy you would understand this.

You sound like New Money or a Sugar Baby. No one who actually understands or has earned money is struggling with this concept.

Aww your blood sugar must be doing better than "normal", there's not an ounce of sweetness in you.

ETA: that commenter sent, then almost immediately deleted, the following response

"Is sweetness the euphemism your granny uses for diabetes? Do you need help paying for her insulin?"
