Shrinkflation has struck again.
Woolworths Choc Coated Dessert Sticks
Normally anywhere between $4- $4.50, 10 sticks in total 865ml
Not too bad a good size cheap choc wedge type of deal.
Now $5, 9 sticks in total now 648ml
Not happy, and the wife won't be when she has one later.
81% australian water woo
Milk content: 47->39% — looking at the nutrition stats, the overall water % probably increased 10%.
Compound Chocolate: still 20%, but they got rid of the palm oil, so now contains more coconut oil than it does sugar.
They were clearing out the old ones at $1 a box and really enjoyed them.
With the new ones the taste has taken a nosedive as well.
The Aldi ones are still good - please don't mess with these!!

They are +13% made in Australia. With productivity in Australia expect at least 26% reduction in quality. That if you get it before it melts (which aligns with all our infrastructure projects, 2x over budgets and 3x the time estimated to complete)
69% of statistics are made up.
@jollibot: So is our infrastructure projects in this country.
I can see too many infrastructure projects people on here rather than building the infrastructure.

Wife will never be happy with shrinkage
Unfortunately I completely understand that reference.
Only inflation
stiff luck…
Unfortunately I'd knock everything over if it wasn't for shrinkage
Maybe Coles and Woolies get it from the same supplier. - Coles Choc Coated Sticks Have Gone from 10 to 12 in a Box but Decreased from 865ml to 756ml?

Better give her two Dessert Sticks then to keep her happy if you know what I mean….
Sounds like a story for 'A Current Affair' as they love tackling the big issues.
Paracetamol capsules at woolies (homebrand) for 24 pack was about $1.25, Now theyre $1 and "price drop" yet only 16 in a pack now! Still a limit of 2 per transaction that was brought in during covid shortages.
Seems like they are both conspiring too rip us off.
Good pickup! However as the official judge in the case, I still blame woolies - burn them at the stake!
Well it happened, the missus wanted it.
I said honey don't blame me, things have gotten smaller, not as good as it use to be, less bang for buck.
Firstly I was advised were I could stick it, and being so small likely would have
Simple fix don't buy them again I have been told.
So there you have it, never screw with a woman's thing on a stick.
Disappointing ….and we did advise and WW of this travesty of justice.
Yesterday I noticed that the smaller Yogurt tubs have dropped in size …
They say 20% off… I dont think they mean price either.
OP just be happy and buy yourself a Gaytime.
Nope not a fan
UnAustralian

The missus not me,
I think they a absolutely fabulous. :)
Portion control. Too many fatties in this country
