For some reason, this suggestion from Tesco's has pissed me off big time.

Am I being pathetic or are they blatant CFs?

YABU = It's a price hike, get over it
YANBU = They're CFs but hoping we're too stupid to notice

This happens all the time. Just look at chocolate bars... they've been getting smaller for years.

@SummerHouse

I thought this thread might be a little more fun.

"I can see why you are cheesed off" etc.

Come on guys!

Grin Fair enough. I'll assume it's a feta compli.

@Longdistance

YABU for buying Primula ‘cheese’. I have more cheese in my sock than is in that tube.
😂😂

It's the nearest thing they have to what you wanted so seems a good suggestion to me. And doing it online has meant you've noticed there is less than the last time you bought it.

If you were in the shop I can see why you might be a bit miffed.

A little cheesy @gobbynorthernbird …. But still grate!

AutumnLeafy · 21/10/2021 19:13

I agree with @DysmalRadius It's hardly sneaky - they have specifically drawn your attention to it!

SummerHouse · 21/10/2021 19:13

Tesco cut the product and kept the price? How dare 'ee!

Cheez! Such a non issue. Cheddar gone to Asda

What did the Cypriot cheese say when she saw herself in the mirror?

Halloumi!

They've just done that with Smarties.

A friend told me. ☺

CrumbsThatsQuick · 21/10/2021 19:16

I am Nacho that's the amount of cheese you were looking for.

I will get my coat.

@gobbynorthernbird

I'd brie devastated
Hard cheese, as they say.

HOLD ON!
It isn't hard cheese at all is it...?

madisonbridges · 21/10/2021 19:18

Agh! Stop! These jokes are so cheesy.

@EdgeOfTheSky

YABU.

That is a very good substitution suggestion.

Usually for that product you would be offered a primrose scented candle, cheese shaped post it notes or a tube of toothpaste .

And yet the product they have suggested seems a close match.

@antsinyourpanta

This sort of thing really grates on me.

Is that ok @SummerHouse? Grin

Yes this is grate!

hedgehogger1 · 21/10/2021 20:08

I just laughed out loud at this. OH asked me about it. Cheese puns! Got an eye roll

SouthOfFrance · 21/10/2021 20:12
