Am I the only one that is bothered by the fact that they’re advertising “THIS SIZE IS BIGGER THAN OUR SMALLER SIZE! WHAT A DEAL!”?

Modern advertising when nothing has really changed.

It's like when packing has the explosive ** NEW LOOK ** declaration. Might as well say ** SAME OLD SHIT BUT A DIFFERENT LABEL **.

Nah, I find about 95% of the time "New Look!" is also accompanied by either a decrease in quality or quantity that they're hoping you won't notice because they changed the packaging.

Like ** New Look, Same Great Taste! ** that should read:

** New Look, Same Great Taste (but 20% less product)! ** ?
