I already have been noticing that certain items are in much smaller packaging and even slightly higher prices. For example, anybody ever grab a bottle of Odwalla juice at lunch? The bottles are smaller and the price is the same or a little higher. I mean, do they think we don’t notice these things?
If you try to buy anything made in America, stand by. You will see how we already have inflation. I already discussed this a while ago on some other thread. For example, women’s designer shoes, normally a few hundred dollars were at one time made in Italy. Now still a few hundred dollars, but made in China. If you want Italian made shoes, you will pay several hundred.
We already have inflation. They have just been tricking us into thinking we’re not by substitution in either quality or quantity.
