One of the funniest scene ever. As long as it didn't happen to me.

I worked the overnight shift stocking shelves in ShopRite in N.J. and we suddenly noticed many items feeling differently when we were stocking the shelves. The first item was Chock Full Of Nuts Coffee which I believe went from 16 OZS. too 13 OZS. but the price stayed the same. Others followed but my memory says they were mainly cereal.

As long as the food is available I'm good with things shrinking, what are you going to do? If you need the item you will but the lesser amount for a higher price. Great Subject though.

Just don't sell me less than a gallon of gas for the same money, that wouldn't work for me.
