Skippy Is Skimping

Look at the photo below.  The peanut butter on the right weighs 16.3 oz. and sold for $3.59 about two months ago.  That’s about $0.22 per ounce.  The peanut butter on the left weighs 15 oz. and sold for $3.79, today.  That’s about $0.25 per ounce.

I love how not only does the price goes up, but the weight goes down at the same time.  I especially love how they made the weight go down by sucking in the sides.

I won’t even bring up the fact that they’re skimping on the glue for the label.

It’s still good peanut butter, though.

I just bought a new jar of Skippy Creamy today. The jar I had was 18 oz and has been for as long as I can remember. The new jar is 16.3 oz. That’s almost 10% less. It does say, as above, “As Always, No Trans Fat”. It should also say, Now get 10% less for more!
