A Bag of Charcoal

I don't bleat merrily. I pay attention when I'm shopping. If I see
the size has decreased I say, "Either they had to increase prices or
decrease quantity. It's the same result in the end."

It sure screws up some of the old recipes. When they want a full pound
of an item which used to be the way it was packaged and it now comes in
12 or even 14 oz instead of a pound. Really screws it up when you have
no idea how much was in the original one bag or jar the recipe called
for.
I had to replace some of the floor in a bathroom that got water soaked.
The plywood had changed sizes, but was able to find two smaller sizes
that matched the original one piece.
