I always buy the same make of Tissues "Kle$$ex" have done for many years ,Imagine my shock when I blew my nose and the contents went straight through,I looked at the box same name ,difference being instead of 3 ply they are now 2 ply also there is a totally different feel ,I did notice this when my wife bought the new compact size I suppose I should have realised something must have changed to be able to get so many into such a small space. Any Thoughts

I bought some sheets the other day, same make as I've always had (and been happy with). One wash and they were just like tissue paper (probably about as strong as your Kle$$ex). Useless. Tins of tuna have become so small that it's at the point where one is not enough for a couple of decent sandwiches. Tins of Quality Street are now about half the size they used to be and many of the varieties have disappeared.
All this may keep inflation down but personally I'd sooner suffer a bit of inflation and have the goods that are of decent quality and sufficient quantity.
