    Dryers Ice Cream

    Anyone else notice that they just lowered the amount in container to 1.5 qts? I called today and voiced my displeasure with this. Remember when it used to be a whole 1/2 gallon? They told me it was because people would rather have less ice cream then pay more for it. Sure they would! They are sending me coupons, but after I use them I will not be buying this brand again. Everyone call and complain, complain, complain! 877-437-3937

    yeah hellmans mayo is now 30oz instead of 32.....and columbo yogurt is now 6 oz instead of 8! Everything seems to be doing this.

    With the mayo the container looks like the same size, but the bottom is concave...sneaky *******s!

    On Jay Leno last easter, some guy from the tv show "The Office" saved a creme egg from the year before and then had one from this year and he compared them. And the year before egg was MUCH bigger.

    I'm glad someone else noticed this! I thought I was going crazy

    I'm to the point that unless it's super cheap I don't buy the "premium" ice cream.. we just simply cannot afford it right now along w/ other things

    We bought a pack of little debbies last week. I re-use ice cream buckets for storage in my pantry. My DH was putting the snacks in the bucket and counted 6 when they use to have 8 , he was sooo mad. And on top of there being less of them, instead of the price being $1.09 they were $1.39.

    OUR Dollar Tree almost always has them for a buck, but that doesn't help with getting less in the box!!!

    I just find it irritating...I would just rather pay a little more than have the companies try to be sneaky about it.

    When you think about the amount that Hellmans probably spent on the the new blow molds for the new concave bottom jars...they probably could have just increased their price a very little bit, then I would have just figured oh well they are increasing like everyone else...KWIM?
