To Fight ‘Shrinkflation’ France Will Force Retailers to Warn Shoppers: Merchants will be required to put signs in front of all products that have been reduced in size without a corresponding price cut

I was thinking about this the other day when I noticed my deodorant was 2.7fl oz instead of the usual 3. The stores are complicit. They know every time something shrinks because they have to print new tags. Even if it's the old price, the unit price has changed, and I believe the barcode is different.

No warnings. No heads up. Just silent acceptance. Sure, if they posted a warning I wouldn't buy that product but dammit I need deodorant!

Gotta love the free market, right?

You're licking corporate boot to defend shitty business practices.
