• 0:04
  Speaker 1: and the club.

  Speaker 2: On nine four seven.
• 0:06
  Speaker 3: Listen, these companies mustn't think that we are we are
• 0:11
  Speaker 3: blind here, that we are sleeping on, that we are
• 0:14
  Speaker 3: well aware what's going on.
• 0:16
  Speaker 4: You've probably noticed one of two things that the supermarket,
• 0:18
  Speaker 4: either the price of items has gone up or the
• 0:20
  Speaker 4: price has stayed the same, but you're getting less.
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: They call that shrinkflation.
• 0:25
  Speaker 5: They're advertising as if, hey, you're going to get this
• 0:27
  Speaker 5: great value, and.
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: It's not true.
• 0:31
  Speaker 3: Over the past two months, I have monitored something that
• 0:34
  Speaker 3: we live here every single day, and it's just getting
• 0:37
  Speaker 3: smaller and smaller and smaller and smaller. In the beginninging
• 0:42
  Speaker 3: of time, yes, okay, in the beginning, a fried egg
• 0:46
  Speaker 3: would cover your entire toast. Correct, Now you lucky if
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: it covers half a toast. The bread hasn't gotten bigger.
• 0:53
  Speaker 3: So something is going on with eggs. Eggs are getting smaller.
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: But in fact, I feel like even the braid has
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: gotten smaller. Really, yes, the slice of toast isn't as
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: big as it used to be, but you are one
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: hundred percent great about the eggs. Now are the chickens
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: getting smaller? What's the story.
• 1:09
  Speaker 3: What's the story, Cindy, you were eating a chocolate last week?
• 1:12
  Speaker 5: Oh my word, I will actually nearly sent you guys
• 1:14
  Speaker 5: a photo. On Friday, I was having a crunchy. I'm like, guys,
• 1:16
  Speaker 5: when did crunchies get so small?
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: They've like it's like it's like they've become chumps. They've
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: become so much smaller.
• 1:22
  Speaker 5: And somebody on a Facebook group also on the weekend said, guys,
• 1:26
  Speaker 5: what is happening with toilet paper? Why is toilet paper
• 1:29
  Speaker 5: not lasting like it used to, Like eighteen rolls would
• 1:32
  Speaker 5: last your family like a whole month.
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: Now you're buying more toilet paper.
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: But are they're all smaller? Did we investigate this well?
• 1:39
  Speaker 5: I think a lot of people will be saying that
• 1:42
  Speaker 5: you're being sold like it's like this is a good deal,
• 1:44
  Speaker 5: but actually it's probably fewer sheets.
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: There's a term for it, shrink flation.
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: What have you noticed in your life that has gotten
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: smaller but the price has remained.
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: Pringles, I'm looking at you.
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: How those tins are so small? Now you get like
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: five five pringles.
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: And when you open them. Back in the day, you'd
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: open pringles and go to the top.
• 2:05
  Speaker 3: Those twos for fighting to get out now your entire
• 2:08
  Speaker 3: army has to go inside to grab the.
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: First one, which is tough because my hand is too
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: big for that thing.
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and another thing with with with chocolates. They've shrunked them,
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: and then they come and they release one that says
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: super giant size. And that super giant size is just
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: the size it was when it.
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: Was normal, but it's double the price.
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: Now we're watching you.
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: You see they make it small and more smaller, same price,
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: and then they go, here's a big chocolate, the normal size,
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: but it's double the price.

  Speaker 3: As an engineer amongst us, you let us know what
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: is suffering from stringflation.
• 5:30
  Speaker 7: I've got a theory. What's cleaning detangents like you know,
• 5:33
  Speaker 7: laundry soap washing, it's washing liquid and things like that.
• 5:37
  Speaker 7: Absolutely no, So listen, they reduced the concentration and then
• 5:42
  Speaker 7: they release a new and then they call it super
• 5:44
  Speaker 7: Duper Elite, but it's actually the old formula and they
• 5:48
  Speaker 7: charge more for.
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: It, so they make it less potent, and then they
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: release one that's more potent, but it's just what the
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: old buttons used to be.
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: Yes, I agree with you.
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: When last did you have a fully foamed sink when
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: you're washing your dishes. It's just soapy, but it doesn't
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: create the same foam anymore.
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: And then you you use more.
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: On you and then then I don't know what it's
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: called in this, I don't know, like fluff the water.
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: Then you're like the water to get the bubbles out,
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: to get the.
• 6:19
  Speaker 3: Bubbles right, and within three four seconds that the form
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: is gone. Already back in the day, literally you'll your
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: you're sink, you're washing your dish that was overflowing, and
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: then you could just catch glimpses of the dishes.
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: Sink, wash me, wash me, wash me. Now it's like
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: I'm here, wash.
• 6:36

  Speaker 3: you noticed in the product that you're buying? It's gotten smaller,
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: it's shrunk, but it's still the same price.

  Speaker 2: Every I think it's almost every single thing in your
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: in your cupboard I want to say, spices, like the
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: spice boxes and the spice bottles. I still there's less
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: spices in them. Doesn't last as long.
