We the consumer keep getting reamed. Bring back the home grown tucker,kill our own poultry,eat more deer.....
Make that jam roly poly at home rather than buy it.

 
Potato crisp packets are less than half full now. Same size pack, just mostly air. The kids open a pack of ready salted and stare in there going WTF! 🤬

The world is mad, yesterday a guy we used to know (bumped into) said he’s been off work and on benefits for a year because of the stress he’s had since Trump was elected…hang on, He’s Scottish and lives in Scotland!! …stress from Trump being elected??? Unreal, and the state actually paid out on that ground so he can, oh wait, use his benefits in Starbucks where we saw him!

That's a symptom of mens bollocks shrinkage!

Happening all over the country... a girl who works for my GF has been signed off for another two weeks with fatigue ffs... she only works 20 hours a week as it is... she's on Facebook looking for a new boyfriend... maybe that's why she's fatigued thinking about it :-|

I've given up buying packets of crisps... the last I purchased was when you could get a family bag of Chiliheatwave Doritos for 99p..
 
I’m not saying I’m a chocoholic, but I am partial to one or too. I save the Celebrations plastic tubs for holding removed bits in the garage - this photo shows to sad decline in size. Now that they cannot reduce the size anymore they have put the price up to the point where I will buy them only on special 😡 855g now down to 500g!

Please don't belittle chronic fatigue. It really is a thing, and it's a bastard to cope with.
If I was employed (rather than self employed) I would have been signed off for the past 5 years, with no hope of that situation ever changing. As it is I soldier on, and some days I'm too weak and exhausted to do anything. No point phoning myself to call in sick though!
 
Mentos we're £1 for a 6 pack. Now £1 buys you a 3 pack.
The shrinkage in weights of box's of Celebrations and alike is truly shocking.
I also see some packs of butter have now gone from 250 to 200 grms

Genuine cases Tim have my sympathy, (even for you too) but many milk it.
My wife had it for years but has slightly improved, but she carried on working. Still is.
Others we know have made a carrier out of it but you'll spot them doing all sorts of activities! Day in day out!!
Genuine victims do so something, usually, like yourself.
A good friend of mine has it, but he still works and found self employment better for him also.
Can be very depressing so respect and best wishes, as ever.
