COSTCO

I like you. I buy stuff from you, of course. I get regular things I need at cheaper prices even as I have to buy bigger quantities. It works out fine. Of late, I have been noticing price increases on certain regular items which is fine given the general inflationary movement of goods’ value. But one thing I noticed when I was tossing out the plastic wrappers of KIRKLAND BRAND toilet paper was that the new packages now contain only 30 rolls as opposed to 36 before. You are better than that. Change the package to 36 rolls please. The price has been increased anyways! I don’t care if you individually wrap them or not.

I am aware that products such as cereals, chips etc reduce their quantity even as they maintain the same kind of packaging to, I would say, deceive the consumer into thinking that the quantity is the same although it is actually not. For example, what used to be a 9.0 oz. packet is now being reduced to 8.5 oz or even less. But toilet paper rolls’ reduction in its package? Come on!
