Unilever I Can't Believe It's Not Butter - Original — 

We have used ICBINB for years and years.  Love the taste, love the ease of use, love everything about it.

That is until last weekend. 

We buy a pound every week.  Usually we buy a pound in the tubs and one in the sticks.  This week I picked up the tub and it didn't feel right.  I've watched the price increase over $1 in the past several months.  Okay, I'll give them the high gas prices, blah, blah, blah.  However, when I picked up the normal 1 lb. tub I glanced at the price..........$2.37 (yet another 2 cent increase.  Then for some reason I looked at the weight.  Not the normal 16 oz. as usual.  Nope it's now 15 oz.  So, they increased the price and decreased the amount you are getting in the tub. 

Things are high enough right now without a company trying to pull the wool over our eyes.  We've already  noticed the same thing happening with coffee, ice cream, etc.  We've had enough and have sworn off ICBINB. 

Start checking the weights of the items you normally purchase, you may be very surprised at what the companies are getting away with and you didn't even realize it.
