1|1|OTHER slimmed down packages (M)|pussecat|pu55ecat@aol.com|11:04:33|09/15/2008|
Other slimmed-down packages include:
A box of Kellogg's Apple Jacks, down from 11 to 8.7 oz.;
A can of Starkist tuna, shrunk from 6 to 5 oz.;
A bottle of Tropicana orange juice, which sports a new snap cap that's supposed to make up for the fact that you're getting 7 oz. less liquid; and
A "half-gallon" container of Breyers Ice Cream, which now holds 48 oz. instead of 64.

Picked up a few Scott Extra soft with coupons a few weeks ago.
When I stacked them in the closet with some others I had from many months ago I noticed the roll is now "narrower". Meaning they are still making the rolls look the same as far as how FAT they are but now they aren't as wide on the TP holder in the bathroom. That's their way to try to "hide" the slim down on their product.

7|1|I've notice cereal boxes have also shrunk in size while the cost has gone up. :(|maraj|maraj64@hotmail.com|21:36:35|09/15/2008|
I think I read somewhere not too long ago that either Kellogg's or GM was going to be decreasing the size of their cereals, *supposedly* to keep the cost down. :-p
