I recently bought a "gallon" of paint at Sherwin Williams in that
new plastic jug with a handle and a pour spout. When I got home,
I was outraged to see that the container is labeled as having
123oz (I think) or "3 27/32" quarts (I'm sure).


Yes, so are the 56oz. "half gallon" (NOT) ice cream packs "clearly
marked" -- but many people aren't going to read the markings on the
package every time, especially if it's a brand that they've been
buying for years.

Damn! I know the feeling!!!
I get gypped every time I buy lumber!!!!! :-)
