Oh the money is there. But its all tied up with billionaires
But won’t that new ballroom be something?
/s
The 1% accounts for 60% of spending. But they are all over leveraged or waiting for the inevitable crash so they can buy everything cheap and increase their hoard.
Compared to the ruling class, the 1%s are practically destitute
I’d love to see a source for that claim, that’s some very intetesting piece of information (if true)
The difference between a millionaire and a billionaire is roughly a billion dollars.
But billionaires aren’t the main consumer base for these brands. They buy boutique appliances and health foods more than they buy sodium laced chipped meat products and mom-and-pop’s favorite dishwasher.
You mean the parasite class is having money trouble because the peasants aren’t buying? How dare they opt for cheaper options when they can barely afford rent! Don’t they know it’s paramount to society that they slave away to engorge those who already have too much???
Yeah it’s the parasite realizing that they went overboard with sucking the blood of their host and now the host is dying.
No, it’s the parasite noticing suckling blood is getting harder, how bothersome!
They’re far off from realizing the host dying.
Only way to beat them at their own game in this case is to not play.
The company behind brands like Heinz, Kraft and Philadelphia is now cutting prices (2) on some products that had grown too expensive, increasing promotions…
Yay! Prices are actually going to drop a little?!
…and rolling out smaller package sizes at lower price points.
Fucking jackals.
Still won’t buy them, the fact they shouldn’t of done it in the first place, they can fuck themselves.
“It’s what the customers want”.
The children yearn for the mines.
This is the second time I’ve seen a company claim that shrinkflation is the solution to this problem.
At this rate, they’ll soon be selling individual packets of ketchup in grocery stores.
I’m doing my part helping put McDonald’s out of business. They aren’t cheap anymore and somehow the quality has gotten worse. I went from going once a week many years back to once a month then a few times a year to never. Every time I go I’m disappointed.
It’s not even really any more expensive to go to a proper sit-down restaurant and order actual real food, anymore.
That was the reason I stopped going to Carl’s Jr years ago. Got to be about the same price as a real restaurant, albeit their burgers were still pretty big and not terrible. But when your best thing used to be advertised as being as good as a sir down burger but for only $6 and it goes up to the same price as a sit down burger, I might as well go get the sit down burger.
Everytime I go I’m disappointed.
It makes me feel ill. The entire following day I feel tired and bloated.
And for what? A cold ass burger that’s super small and tastes different?
I had lunch at Booger King last year for the first time in a long time. The whopper and fries were actually surprisingly good, freshly cooked and tasty. But god damn did I feel like shit after eating it. I suppose it was all the salt. And it was $16, and that was without a drink even.
I’m doing my part too! Haven’t been to a McDonald’s since 2024, and working hard to convince everyone I know to stop going there too.
I go for only one thing - a Sausage Egg McMuffin, maybe once a week. That’s all.
They screwed up my last two orders. One didn’t have an egg, and one didn’t have the sausage or cheese.
Is it that hard?
Pay the lowest possible wage and get the lowest possible effort.
Yeah I only hit them up for a large milk shake to blend with wild blueberries at home. Because I’m to lazy to make my own milkshake
It’s icecream and milk in a blender, and you’re already putting it in a blender… What?
I think I’m doing my part but the extreme discounts in the app every two weeks mean I’m still visiting. It is a nice break from ramen.
I totally get that! When I visited the most was when they had the dollar menu and I honestly used it to survive back then. These days it’s the app and only sometimes but same thing.
You couldn’t beat $3.75 for 2 sandwiches and a small fry when I had $20 to my name that had to somehow last me the work week!
Yeah, it’s disgusting now.
I can’t believe the prices, they are on par with local hamburger joints that sell food that is 4-5 times better.
I’m doing my part because they won’t sell fries a vegetarian can eat
Oh wow, some awareness! It just doesn’t matter till it hits the bottom line of course. Don’t confuse it with compassion.
Fox News: Wow! Lord God President of all the Universe His Holyness Emperor Trump has gifted us with such an AMAZING economy that people have SO MUCH money they can’t decide what to spend it on!! They get decision paralysis and end up buying nothing! We’re so winning!! Thank you Lord God Emperor Master of the Universe King Trump!
This article is shit. It’s just long form advertising. Don’t trust any of it.
Halfway through it starts hawking gold and subscriptions to Masterworks 😂
Congratulations America, the 1% is nearly done taking all your money. I’m excited to see what comes next.
That’s an advertisement, not financial analysis.
At the samentime there are people attending sports events where ticket is $5000, with stadiums full. Money is here it is only unfairly distributed.
The best indicator other than waffle house on how ducked this country is gonna be in a year or two
Make your slop cheaper or fuck off. These people really are stupid. They are greedy and lack basic positive human traits but otherwise they are just stupid.
There is one more option. Make it better for the same price.
Bwahahahha they will never do that, nevermind
Line must go up
Line will eventually go down
Won’t someone please think of the innocent billion dollar company?
Nothing a guillotine can’t fix
Kraft changed their macaroni ingredients and now it tastes like plastic, so…
BTW if you are in inland SoCal Stater Bros. has a brand call pastaroni which is pretty good.
Even the fancy ones with the liquid non powder cheese pouch?
Never had those, but the fun shapes one was always my favorite since I was a kid and now even those taste like the plastic the regular ones tasted like for awhile.
I’ve really been liking Goodles. Reminds me of what Kraft used to taste like.
Buy a bucket of good quality cheese powder. You’ll make it the same way except you have to measure out the cheese powder instead of opening a packet.
You have a recommended source for it?
Same question for pasta - I’ve noticed just plain pasta seems to be like a lot - even the store brand - when I’m at stores, and that’s for one little box. I’m assuming that can be bought in bulk and save a lot of $$$. If properly stored, that should have a long shelf life, too.
I like King Arthur brand cheese powder. It’s not yellow but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
