Geez jay, your gallons are bigger than ours, so quit whining! At least they told you it was 10. You'd have a right to be ticked if all the 12 place cartons only had 10 eggs in them. |

| Noticed the Sports drink bottles used to be 32 oz. now 28 but same price, coffee is still declining in pounds per container, specials at our grocer for the 2/3 sized can if one looks are the same price for the larger can per oz. Wife noted Butter tubs were some 4 oz Less than used to be too while stick butter is still a pound but price went up. |

BFD. Smaller packages for the same price has been going on forever, I remember my parents complaining about it. Price of food is price of food, plan and act accordingly. |

Well, "they" are in business in a capitalistic economy (yeah, kind of). That's what they do, make money. By taking yours. Don't like it, what's your option? There are places to live that control all that kind of stuff, would you like that better? BFD. |
