They don't lower prices but they keep making products smaller or of less quality.

It is called resistance. They wil continue to give less for more until consumers stop purchasing their products and buy other products that cost less. In order to maintain market share the manufacturers will have to cut prices eventually.

Want to beat these people....shop for anything but packaged products as much as you can. Buy store brands....in short do anything to stick it to manufacturers who are ripping us off!

I agree, Priceplus! Money talks and when they aren't raking it in, they'll make some changes.
