So they raised the price.
It happens. I don't think "ripoff" is accurate. I mean- it's not like they're selling you 15lbs of gas and telling you it's 20lbs.
My half-gallon of ice cream is not a half-gallon any more. The container looks the same at first glance, but is subtly different. And the price is the same for a half-gallon. But the correct size *is* listed on the container.
AND no courtesy notice telling me I'm getting less ice cream for the money.
Think of it as a compliment- a price increase means somebody thinks you make too much money.
