Have you noticed the change

October 22 2010

Well I sit here, having had 1 rum tooooooo many and my carzy mind starts wandering. HAVE YOU NOTICED THE CHANGES. Sitting eating Jatz and almost no salt. How about Big Macs, not so big now. And if Whoppers get any smaller I'll be able to say I have a whopper. Barbecue shapes not as much flavour and the list goes on. What can my forum buddies come up with.

    Have shrunk in size and the toppings have diminished. Wasnt there a big hooha in the news a few years ago when a stubby of beer was made marginally smaller? One that was slipped into the general public recently without a whisper was washing powder. All of a sudden we were convinced that the powder was now concentrate. For years we were adding twice as much as needed and now we put half the amount in of the exact same product. Smaller box, bigger price. Some amonst us were not fooled.

    At the risk of sounding like a professional grump, I submitted a complaint to Fair Trading over washing powder. When it became "2 x concentrated", the scoop that they included in the box was actually 3/4 of the size of the old one. That meant that we were getting far fewer washes per box, plus the companies had halved their shipping costs and on top of that, as they all changed at the same time, it seemed to be collusive. I followed up with Fair Trading and they said that they had determined that there was a case to answer and they had sent everything to the lab in Sydney. That was early last year - I'm sure you can guess what's happened since.

    well I just have to say what happened to my favourite little snack the lovely bounty bars...they have reduced so much in size its like putting baby bears chocky into daddy bears wrapper....they tried to replace them with their own brand cool coconut ...but let me tell ya they wont convert me to those cheap imitations made in goodness knows where ....I will switch to cherry ripe at the last minute they will neva convert me.... although I did feel the same about recods and discs and then they just stop making records.....so my suggestion ...like the humble light bulb ...get out there and stock up because it might be the last time you see it.....one lost is one you will neva see again...

    They now count out your toppings- only 8 bits of olive and 16 bits of shredded carrot on a foot long etc etc

    I've noticed the change in the way people treat each other ..... The age of technology has made it so easy to be so impersonal in dealings with each other..... Maybe I'm just an old-fashioned country girl ...... but sometimes this age of technology that can bring so many positives can also hurt....

    I have to say that the biggest change is no change....left when I buy something! | The new economy...money that does not make noise in your pocket.

    Notice you get more ice in your mixed drinks nowadays as well. They get really cheesed off with me when I order Bundy Rum and Coke with no ice.

    But do you drink them just as quick?! Me too...? I don't like my bundy watered down and find it easier not having to sip 'around' the ice..the drink is never around long enough to get warm :P It's funny the people who think you get more alcohol when there's no ice!? Hahaa..? More pre-watered down 'choke' at maccas maybe! And whatever you do, if you do decide you want ice again, watch....and if you see a bartender 'smashes' your glass into the ice, and not using a scoop to scoop it in with...ask for another one, with no ice. Then, you can enjoy your bundy without the risk of internal bleeding. What about when they changed the Bundy bottle to 700mls!!? And the cans alcohol percentage from 5.5 to 5, and now it's 4.8......?!? Bastards. No wonder it takes me more to get pissy these days.....I just thought it was because I'm a rum pig. Hehee...*snort* hehe..*hic*..
