Inflation is everywhere, and it's hitting us right in the rear. Have you noticed some of the items you use daily have started to shrink, but you're paying the same price? It's called Shrinkflation, and it's hitting you right where counts, in this case it's your bum.
So what exactly is Shrinkflation? Paying the same amount for a smaller package, dubbed "shrinkflation," is inflation you’re not supposed to see. The trend has accelerated amid high inflation rates, which hit 8.5% in July.
Angel Soft cut the number of its sheets by almost 25% from 425 to 320 per roll. Each square sheet was also trimmed down to 3.8 inches wide instead of 4 inches. For sure smaller. So keep in mind, products are smaller, we're all noticing it. Maybe to save money you can ration it out in per squares per family member ammounts? I guess the better question is, when is this going to stop hitting us in the rear?
