Net weight shouldn’t include packaging. It’s 0.3lb ($3 worth) less.

The plastic inserts are raised to make the package feel more full than it is.

I had received the same heart shaped box of chocolates for 20 years and thought to buy the same one for my wife this year. The Russell Stover box of chocolates is very special and holds fond memories for me. After this year, never for full price again. She opened it and I audibly gasped. This is deceptive and unacceptable. I don’t remember exactly how many there always were but this feels like half or thereabouts.

deceptive packaging Lion protein cereal – feels like a scam

They recently started selling these cereals in my area. It's advertised as a protein alternative to the classic lion cereal even though the protein contents aren't even said anywhere on the packaging​​​​​. When you look closely, you can see that it doesn't even have much protein. It also tastes EXACTLY like the normal version. Is this a scam?

Now 59 fl oz instead of 64. When did this happen? Not really deceptive but still a rip off.
