The Products Get Smaller and Smaller
The Products Get Smaller and Smaller
By Elton Camp
Every time that we go to the store
Containers hold less than before
This is only a hidden price increase
A practice that truly needs to cease
For it will hurt all in coming days
When there’s no cost of living raise
Sometimes the shape will change
Slyly cutting contents to arrange
A bubble at the bottom does the same
This type dirty trick is a rotten shame
Maybe the box is the same size still
But the contents woefully fail to fill
This practice we shouldn’t tolerate
May a sales loss be the cheater’s fate
