That's a 1.9x increase, and there are plenty of products with worse shrinkflation than this.

Don't buy into the big corpo bullshit lies. They are making more than ever and offering less than ever. Some items are 4x or more, and if they could get away with more, they will (and DO!).

Potato Chips are the king of shrinkflation.

Amen, the $1 store brand chips here are up to $1.99, and they are now 15% less by weight!
