Celebrations outcry as tubs shrink and fans vow to 'never buy again'

manchestereveningnews.co.uk:

The Christmas spirit is often captured by a box of Celebrations, brimming with favourites such as Snickers, Maltesers, and the divisive Bounty - certain to delight every family member.

But now, this beloved festive classic has triggered quite the online storm, as fans argue the tub has succumbed to 'shrinkflation'.

The term 'shrinkflation' refers to the phenomenon where a product's size, weight, or number diminishes while its price remains unchanged, drops slightly, or possibly even rises.

Meanwhile, 'skimpflation' happens when cheaper ingredients are used without adjusting the price accordingly. On a Facebook page based in Manchester that's all about supermarket finds, one user posted pictures allegedly showing Celebrations' tubs from various years.
