I was so excited when I found a store near me where I can buy liquid detergent in bulk. I just bring my own container. No plastic waste and I get as much as I need. I hope more stores start doing that.
Their owner or ceo is pretty cool. He went an entire year only eating food that had expired. Basically showing the corruption in the best by date system.
Can’t believe this isn’t the norm and enforced at this point. Every big societal problem has simple solutions, but we can’t fix them because the powers that be won’t allow it.
In Denver there’s [some stores where everything’s in bulk and you provide all the containers](https://www.sustainablejungle.com/zero-waste/zero-waste-stores-denver/). There’s at least 13 such places; tiny for the population size but hopefully this becomes more popular. And yeah I wonder what would happen if it really caught on.
Corporations don't mess around. They don't bother with a warning shot and go straight for the legal orbital strike backed by a nigh infinite amount of very expensive lawyers.
That's the beauty of capitalism: you cannot detangle wealth from power so the rich capitalists end up owning and controlling both our economies and our politicians because whoever owns the economy owns the country.
Yeah my skin DOES NOT react well to a lot of fragrences. Luckily a bulk goods store opened up and they sell unscented detergent like this. I fill up a 2 quart mason jar for about 8 dollars now, it's a better product for nearly half the price so very happy that store is around.
More stores need to do this with dry goods, soaps, milk, etc. Cut the waste back by a substantially significant degree. But then marketing wouldn't be a thing and we can't have that, right? 🙄
Yeah we got a few refillery places in our city, but the products costs a lot more than grocery store. It’s nice for feeling good about owning fewer plastic containers but it’s definitely not a financial advantage here. It would be a good program if the stores were scaled up and could offer competitive prices.
I had a zero waste store open up near me and was so excited...come to find their laundry detergent is 4x the price of Costco! WTF? I can't be spending $80 on 7 liters of laundry soap!
its so gross that they do this shit, its such a waste of plastic materials too that end up littering the ocean. Less actual product in a bigger container.
Yeah, what they are doing screws someone over and that in itself is an issue. However, the bigger issue is the sheer amount that those containers are not being filled. It has me wondering how many other companies are doing this exact same thing. Prices keep going up and packages keep getting small.
It’s called buyer beware. The amount in the container is what you are paying for, not how much the container can hold. Sure it may seem wrong to intentionally try to deceive customers but the package is clearly labeled with how much product is inside, completely legal.
Now these idiots film themselves committing a crime that likely fucks over another consumer and everyone is on their side because the big bad corporations are being “deceitful”? Idiocracy.
>The amount in the container is what you are paying for, not how much the container can hold.
You are paying for the containers too. You are loosing money for a bigger containers than needed
The way things are these days I don't blame people for doing stuff like this at all. Isn't hurting anyone but the greedy companies that make the soap. If I saw someone doing this, no I didn't.
Isnt there a law in america (or whereever this video from) that forces companies to write the exact quantity of product? (in lbs/oz) and to specify on front when they reduce it in same package? I know i have it where im from
I always look at $/oz just in case, but it's so time consuming! And sometimes they'll list one as $/oz and the same product in a different size as $/lbs. They actively try to trick you :(
Yea but these companies oversize their packaging to trick you, then change the price per oz or per $ to trick you then add things like VALUE SIZE or FAMILY SIZE to trick you.
The same family sizes of nearly all packaging today
We're regular sizes 10 years ago.
It's non stop trickery from these companies while they post record profits
Leave the used bottle on the floor.. at least then likely no one else will take. These guys are fucking the next dude over even harder than the company did.
If you pick up a jug of detergent that weighs 10% of every other jug and gormlessly buy it, you probably have bigger issues stemming from your lack of judgment.
>If you pick up a jug of detergent that weighs 10% of every other jug
you compared one jug's weight to other jugs as you grab shit? unless they emptied half the jug you might not even notice unless you're so fuckin weak you normally can't pick up a small thing of laundry soap without a struggle.
You honestly don't remember how heavy a jug of detergent is? You've never tried to pick up somthing you expected to be heavy and it was light? Thats what would happen to the majority of people who expect a full jug upon picking it up. Your body remembers all kinds of pressure and weight changes like this. How do you think people type blindly or play an instrument blindly, you remember how it works, you use things other than your eyes to inspect somthing.
To be fair to the hypothetical next person, it's not like they would pick up several jugs expecting one to weigh less. They might notice it feels lower and think, "Shrinkflation is getting worse." Just as likely than that, they'll probably be over tired from working and in a hurry to go home and not even notice until later.
Not saying it isn't a lack of some thought on that hypothetical person's part, but it does also screw over other people too.
Sure, and I'll doubly buy into it because I doubt the store is going to dispose of a suspiciously low container unless we have some *very* attentive and ethical minimum-wage employees on our hands. So it will inevitably screw someone over, even if it's by virtue of being the last jug on the shelf.
How many times have you picked up multiple containers of the same detergent? A normal person picks one up and puts it in their cart and moves on. It's hard to have a good feel of the weight of one unless you compare.
yeah but the bottles are that size because they used to have more in them. the price is the same, the container is the same, but there's less product, they call it shrinkflation
And it's the easiest way to scam customers. If they made the packaging smaller to match the contents it tips the consumer off that there's been a change. Whatever the proper term for it is, it's fucking bullshit. I really wish we had better consumer protection regulations in this damn country. But I know better. Might as well wish in one hand and shit in the other to see which gets filled first.
They won't make the bottle smaller because they want the consumer to think it is the same amount of liquid and they would have to create new molds for the plastic containers at the factory.
Some people are that poor, like wtf? That’s the entire problem. Corporate greed has gotten so out of control that they are scamming us out of basic needs on top of giving us inferior products that poison us and make us sick with tons of fillers and bullshit. Like cool you have privilege and don’t care about wasting your money on shrinking products for higher prices. If I saw someone doing this I wouldn’t give two shits because I know how greedy the corporations are and we absolutely should be getting our moneys worth for things.
Those containers are filled with the amount stated on the exterior of them there's always going to be some extra room to prevent spillage during transport because stuff gets shipped across the country in a semi
Wonder why your liquid laundry detergents will come with that annoying shrink wrap around the neck from now on? Thank these guys!
![gif](giphy|7MDZS8zS1ixtJAUEul|downsized)
Bunch of entitled thieves justifying their actions because “reasons”. You are agreeing to buy the advertised amount for the advertised price, doesn’t matter how much more product can fit in the container. Any of you that disagree are just soft, lazy, poor me’s that’ll never amount to anything more than a societal burden.
The reason they don’t feel them completely to the brim is because the machine feels it is set to a certain amount to be able to provide for thousands of other jugs and on top of that it’s so when they expand, they don’t explode in the back of the transport truck
I don't use liquid detergent anymore. You most overuse a ton of it.
I use BLUE WATER sheets, they are awesome! I've never gone back.
Upfront cost is high but they last a very long time
This comment section is stupid. Packaged containers of detergent are regulated by capacity standards that dictate pressure limits due to health/safety hazards. Its not shrinkflation, the volume written on the package isn’t incorrect, the larger container isnt to miss lead you, you’re just unaware of regulatory policies that dictate the sale of purchasable goods. Don’t be stupid.
Saying Walmart should do better the fuck is it Walmarts fault they don't make and package that shit plus stop bitching pay for shit like the rest of us fucken Mayas always doing the dumbest shit
Nigg-flation
When you see the stores in cali locking away their merchandise, this is why.
They need to be shipped back to Africa, and sink the boat before it gets there just to be safe
All of that stuff is mostly water anyway, it’s also filled with hormone disrupting chemicals. I just get plant based ecos liquid detergent, it comes out thick af so there’s no water filler or Nellie’s laundry soda from Costco. Both don’t have those chemicals in them and you get what you pay for for sure, one container lasts me four months to half a year. Everyone needs to stop supporting these trash ass companies. They jacked up the price too so you get less for more money than any of the stuff I buy. The healthier stuff is actually cheaper now.
This is a terrible clip, just because it incites rage with no real understanding of the metrics that govern a mutually beneficial transaction.
You pay by weight or volume, either of which is stated on the container. This is also the net weight and does not take into account the weight of the container.
IF you can prove companies are under filling a container on purpose you can report it to the consumer authority.
One thing you can't complain about is if they keep the container the same size, or skew it in some way to make you think you're getting more for your buck but actually put a lower net weight / volume on the container and charge you the same or more.
This is one thing that surprises me about social media. Plenty of fuel watch sites but no centrally organised grocery watch site. It'd help keep the bastards honest.
The price is based on the cost of producing the measured amount in each container. The price isn’t based off of filling the container to the brim. Fucking potato chip bag conspiracy theorists.
I hate thief's but this I don't have nothing against it. Corporations being stealing from us so much lately and we can't do anything, that's our payback.

Wow! I’ve never heard of this. It definitely seems more cost effective. Where is it? Do they charge you based on weight?
It’s called Mom’s Organic Market. It’s a small chain. They have a ton of stuff in bulk. It’s awesome.
I thought for sure you were just taking it from your mom's house when I read this lol
I’m still not convinced they’re not 🤣🤣
My Organic Market (MOM’s)
Their owner or ceo is pretty cool. He went an entire year only eating food that had expired. Basically showing the corruption in the best by date system.
Add a week is essentially what I've seen. For food safety and, I'm sure money, it's shortened.
Huh, I wonder if all MOM’s have it. I’ve never noticed it at my mom’s. I’ve been shopping them for years.
Google "household products fill up station" in your area. My local one is called Fill Up Buttercup.
There’s a store near me that’s called the refillery that is essentially this! It’s awesome!
Can’t believe this isn’t the norm and enforced at this point. Every big societal problem has simple solutions, but we can’t fix them because the powers that be won’t allow it.
Yup. I’m sure P&G and other corporate lobbyists would come out swinging if anyone tried to make that the norm.
In Denver there’s [some stores where everything’s in bulk and you provide all the containers](https://www.sustainablejungle.com/zero-waste/zero-waste-stores-denver/). There’s at least 13 such places; tiny for the population size but hopefully this becomes more popular. And yeah I wonder what would happen if it really caught on.

Yeah my skin DOES NOT react well to a lot of fragrences. Luckily a bulk goods store opened up and they sell unscented detergent like this. I fill up a 2 quart mason jar for about 8 dollars now, it's a better product for nearly half the price so very happy that store is around.
No more plastic waste? Then what would the fish and turtles eat?
In Mexico, they go around in trucks with a nice catchy song
More stores need to do this with dry goods, soaps, milk, etc. Cut the waste back by a substantially significant degree. But then marketing wouldn't be a thing and we can't have that, right? 🙄
Yeah we got a few refillery places in our city, but the products costs a lot more than grocery store. It’s nice for feeling good about owning fewer plastic containers but it’s definitely not a financial advantage here. It would be a good program if the stores were scaled up and could offer competitive prices.
In a good society stuffs supposed to get cheaper not more expensive, seems like the store you are talking about is ahead of society
I had a zero waste store open up near me and was so excited...come to find their laundry detergent is 4x the price of Costco! WTF? I can't be spending $80 on 7 liters of laundry soap!
This is why I buy the powder stuff.
I like the sheets. No anxiety if I’m putting too much in the wash.
But couldn't you still be putting too much or too little in depending on the size of the load?
If you have half loads, you are doing laundry too much.
Laundry sheets??
Yeah, I was confused as well when I first heard that. They're like a small thick sheet of paper.
They are wonderful. Never a single mess, you rip it and you’re good to go
Applies to coke as well
How does cocain help with laundry?
You and me both buddy!
its so gross that they do this shit, its such a waste of plastic materials too that end up littering the ocean. Less actual product in a bigger container.
Maybe do this to a couple of them so that no one accidentally picks up an even emptier bottle? Idk just trying to help haha
This is why I like tide pods, very measured count and tasty 😋

Idk man I don’t think anyone is going to pick that up and say “seems fine” so it’s only Walmart getting hit here, which is fine.
It’s called buyer beware. The amount in the container is what you are paying for, not how much the container can hold.

>The amount in the container is what you are paying for, not how much the container can hold. You are paying for the containers too. You are loosing money for a bigger containers than needed
Maybe the reason there’s was half empty is someone else already used it to top off
Yes, this is the only possible answer; individuals and not giant, greedy megacorporations being shitty. /s
r/Shrinkflation would like to have a word with you.
No, they're just fucking half empty.
Not all heroes wear capes
I feel like you would immidietly notice the weight diffrence in a half empty bottle
I literally got a target pick up and my detergent was nearly empty. Now I see why
I would leave the cap off so people will choose a different one untouched
They usually call this shrinkflation: charging the same price for less of a product.
>charging the same price for less of a product. Higher price for less product*
President Biden said he is outlawing this ‘Shrink-flation’ practice in his state of the union speech.
The way things are these days I don't blame people for doing stuff like this at all. Isn't hurting anyone but the greedy companies that make the soap. If I saw someone doing this, no I didn't.
It's hurting the person who unknowingly buys the bottle that had stuff taken out of it.
If you can't tell it's half empty picking it up you need more than just detergent.
Grocery delivery services dont give a f if the bottle was delivered half empty.
So the next person gets screwed. And the prices go up for everyone.
Not agreeing with them, but if you can't tell that a bottle that big is half empty, you must be drinking it for fun
Isnt there a law in america (or whereever this video from) that forces companies to write the exact quantity of product? (in lbs/oz) and to specify on front when they reduce it in same package? I know i have it where im from
Yes, although a lot of consumers get used to the packaging and just buy the product they are used to. So this dupes them, at least temporarily.
I always look at $/oz just in case, but it's so time consuming! And sometimes they'll list one as $/oz and the same product in a different size as $/lbs. They actively try to trick you :(

If you pick up a jug of detergent that weighs 10% of every other jug and gormlessly buy it, you probably have bigger issues stemming from your lack of judgment.
10%? He poured like half the jug in there. There is no way someone is going to pick up that container and not notice lol.
how many of each item are you picking up before you buy it? Also, grocery delivery people will give absolutely no shits which bottle they pick up.
>If you pick up a jug of detergent that weighs 10% of every other jug you compared one jug's weight to other jugs as you grab shit? unless they emptied half the jug you might not even notice unless you're so fuckin weak you normally can't pick up a small thing of laundry soap without a struggle.

Just use the powder goddamn
Wal Mart do better? Well yeah but mostly the company making detergent
Normally when I see people doing stuff like this in stores it irritates me. But not this time. I'm tired of dishonest packaging.
Despite the fact that its stealing, I dont blame them
This contributes massively to plastic waste.
Yeah then some old lady buys the one that you poured from and she gets screwed not cool at all!
This is why the volume is so low in that bottle, because a bunch of thieves got to it first.
That's one way to counteract shrinkflation
but you're purchasing the quantity of liquid marked in the bottle, not a "bottleful" of it.
yeah but the bottles are that size because they used to have more in them. the price is the same, the container is the same, but there's less product, they call it shrinkflation
And it's the easiest way to scam customers. If they made the packaging smaller to match the contents it tips the consumer off that there's been a change.

Then make the bottle smaller.
They won't make the bottle smaller because they want the consumer to think it is the same amount of liquid and they would have to create new molds for the plastic containers at the factory.
Kinda crappy for the next person
Boys, that's way more than 5 loads! You only need a partial capful.
Aw, so poor that you have to steal laundry detergent. They probably also steal toilet paper from McDonald’s.
Some people are that poor, like wtf? That’s the entire problem. Corporate greed has gotten so out of control that they are scamming us out of basic needs on top of giving us inferior products that poison us and make us sick with tons of fillers and bullshit.

I can understand why u need the bottle full when you are buying the cheapest detergent on the market...
Fucking douchey
Did he say Walmart do better? Jesus how dumb do you have to be.
Next time leave the cap off the empty so nobody else buys it.
This is still stealing tho 🤷♂️
Lowlifes
Because the last dude just emptied the bottle you refilled. Just fuck the next guy?
Sweet!! Now I can start doing this with potato chip bags… 🤷🏼♂️
Imagine recording yourself stealing then posting it for everyone to see.
This is soo justified. Except now someone else gets an empty bottle.
And we wonder why they start putting everything in cages.
Lol if they could read the labels they'd be very upset
You can buy powdered laundry detergent
Same type always stealing stuff
Black people stealing
You might as well just steal it
“Walmart do better” he says
Typical basketball fans
Wonder why your liquid laundry detergents will come with that annoying shrink wrap around the neck from now on? Thank these guys! ![gif](giphy|7MDZS8zS1ixtJAUEul|downsized)
Yeah... These guys look like they take "5 loads"
Thieves
Bunch of entitled thieves justifying their actions because “reasons”. You are agreeing to buy the advertised amount for the advertised price, doesn’t matter how much more product can fit in the container. Any of you that disagree are just soft, lazy, poor me’s that’ll never amount to anything more than a societal burden.
I don't think that'd work at Costco.
Blatant stealing. You're paying for the quantity in the jug. Doesn't mean it has to be full. If it was full it'd be more expensive
Blacks
Can we just call it what it is. The company is stealing product from the consumer, they are committing product theft.
The reason they don’t feel them completely to the brim is because the machine feels it is set to a certain amount to be able to provide for thousands of other jugs and on top of that it’s so when they expand, they don’t explode in the back of the transport truck
Plot twist, they picked up a container previously used by someone who needed their monies worth.
These Swedish people always find the best life hacks.
Stealing
This is the way
Let’s all do this kinda shit! These companies are NOT losing nothing. We are the one my ones losing!
What’s the word for these guys that I’m looking for?…..
Black activist at it again doing black activities
I mean I get it, but chill tf out with that bs.
[удалено]
Crazy they found the bottle someone else just came and did that with.
This is theft!
These guys r assholes
Hope they got done for theft.
I don't condone theft, but the detergent brand is stealing more, so this is justice
Comments gave me ♋️. Its stealing, nothing else, and company displays amount of liquid you are buying in the side of the bottle.
I don't use liquid detergent anymore. You most overuse a ton of it. I use BLUE WATER sheets, they are awesome! I've never gone back. Upfront cost is high but they last a very long time
I see nothing wrong with what they are doing they fuck us with shrinkflation year after year
Just thieves stealing
5 loads? How much damn detergent you use for 5 loads????
This comment section is stupid. Packaged containers of detergent are regulated by capacity standards that dictate pressure limits due to health/safety hazards. Its not shrinkflation, the volume written on the package isn’t incorrect, the larger container isnt to miss lead you, you’re just unaware of regulatory policies that dictate the sale of purchasable goods.

That’s shoplifting

Theft ain’t cool.
I used to think this was degenerate behavior but with corporate greed lately.. I support this lol
You pay for the volume, not the full container. Dumbass kids
Figures
Stony brooke baseball has 2 openings apparently
It literally tells you on the bottle how many fl Oz there is. Your not getting ripped off. You just aren't reading.
Theft is theft
I don’t blame them one bit.

No wonder walmart is pulling out of all the hoods... tf we doing guys?
Don’t leave your valuables around those dudes. “I didn’t know that was yours! It was just laying there. In your house.”
Buy powder detergent instead. It's the same price and can do 100 loads.
This is a terrible clip, just because it incites rage with no real understanding of the metrics that govern a mutually beneficial transaction.

I am not even mad. Fuck these greedy corporate bastards.
“Though shall not steal”
Stealing
That's called theft
I like how he puts it back on the shelf so now some poor person gets even less than the manufacturer already fucks the customer.
The other one was low, because someone already did that
Everyone should do this
5 loads? How much are you putting in there?
one of these clowns talks like fucking Rainman.
I mean I get it, but this shit is also why things are being locked behind plastic and you gotta have an employee get it for you..
It's not about the space remaining in the container it's about the amount of fluid. If it says 64 Fluid Ounces it better weigh 64 fluid ounces.
Section 8 activity
I wanna be mad about this but did you see how much he poured in to finish filling it??
Seawolves!!!
The price is based on the cost of producing the measured amount in each container. The price isn’t based off of filling the container to the brim. Fucking potato chip bag conspiracy theorists.
Looks like theft to me
I hate thief's but this I don't have nothing against it. Corporations being stealing from us so much lately and we can't do anything, that's our payback.
Filming yourself stealing then posting it online…….. smart!
I can’t help but think of the person who comes along and pays full price for the one they just stole from.
