Decrease and Increase?

Question

How is it a dog food company can decrease the amount of food you get in a bag , raise the price of the food and still have people buy it. there's something wrong here don't you think ?

Answer 1

It's happening with everything, not just dog food.   With the rise in fuel prices, it's how companies recoup their loss in profit.  They make the bags, boxes, packages smaller, and raise the prices.

Answer 2

Yeah I've noticed that too. I try to buy my pet food on sale, but there are less and less sales too. With 6 animals it's really getting costly, but I'm not willing to give any of them up!! Oh well, as the other answerer said everything is going up, just have to chew on it and grin.

Answer 3

Gas prices affect everything.  

Answer 4

What's really wrong is the ingredients.  They put rendered dogs and cats into commercial dog food, such as ALPO.  Don't believe me?  Google it!
