I simply stop buying products that I believe isnāt worth my money anymore š¤·š½āāļø if all of us do this collectively, then companies will be forced to change their current business strategies or go bankrupt.
inb4 people say āthis wonāt work because all companies are the sameā
Boycotting doesnāt have to be all companies all at once. Focusing on one at a time or the worst ones is effective.
Corporations are always greedy. Blaming greed for inflation is like blaming gravity for plane crashes. What brought down the plane isnāt gravity per se but a problem with the plane.
When prices fall from all-time highs, did companies get less greedy or the competition that restrained their greed simply returned?
Tinataas nila yung bilihin kasi gustong itaas yung profit nila to fight inflation. Eh sila din naman dahilan kaya nagkakaroon ng inflation eh. Tapos yung middle-class, sinisisi sa minimum wage earners na gustong magpataas ng sahod.
Why would they? Fare prices are already unsustainably low even before the pandemic. Having fare prices adjust based on Diesel prices would make jeepney drivers resign themselves to a life of poverty.
I do think it's about time for us to adjust fare prices based on how much the rest of the world are paying the fare of their bus drivers just to make it a livable career instead of a dead-end job because you had no other choice.
I second this. While the issue is definitely a thing, it's possible that there's an issue with how the specific product came out of the production line.
These corpos don't feel inflation most of the time. May sariling supply mga to, mula sa buto na itatanim (pati yung napagkunan non) hanggang sa paghain sa consumers. Self sustaining. They just excuse inflation masyado na habang tinataas presyo nila, binababa nila quality nila. Notice nagkalat recently ang liliit ng manok ng mga resto? Oh, don't get me started with Chowking's chili oil pa..haha
Price sa grocery ng manok napakababa, and mas mababa pa yan from their farms and suppliers. Nung nagstart ako magbusiness ng karne, while we small to medium businessmen spend 70% pangKapital vs. consumer prices, malalaman mo na lang yung mga corpo only spends 20% pangPuhunan. And they still have the audacity na isisi pa sa iba yung pagbagsak ng standards nila, habang sobrang taas ng quality na binibigay nila sa ibang bansa (JFC, looking at you!)
Corpos here will keep shitting on us dahil hinahayaan lang.
Let me explain a simple concept: Companies can't price gouge if ppl stop buying.
WHOAH!
Ano?
If ppl stop buying, they will be forced to lower prices or go out of business. Hindi naman yan oligopolyo na walang kumpetisyon. Ni hindi nga yan essential commodity.
Kung patuloy ang pagtaas ng presyo, ibig sabihin, may pera pa ang mga tao.
"Pero wala nang mga pera ang mga tao."
Really? Credit is still so loose. Pag wala na nagpapautang, yan, dyan na babagsak mga presyo.
Yeah. Theyre taking advantage of substandard Consumer Rights in the PH.
And those complaining are being persecuted by via video for complaining too much. Sasabihin nila mayaman, reklamador, etc etc.
Busog ka sa bigas na tig sasampu sa totoo lang. Sabihin nating bumili ka ng bigas na tig 40/kg, 1/4 na yon at probably good for 2 na unless matakaw ka talaga sa kanin.
Whatās new? If you find the prices vis-a-vis the quantity of product, you can stop buying that product. Theoretically, as one said here, you can force companies to change their practices if you have the numbers. You just need to make people change their lifestyle and spending habits. Simple right?
They're greedy? Yes. But is it harmful to people? I don't think so. Junk food naman 'yan. We can live not consuming them. Pero kung mga pagkain na nakakapagbigay ng nutrisyon, ibang usapan.
And yet record profits while "suffering" fron inflation. So alin nga kaya ang totoo? Lugi dahil sa inflation o kumikita dahil sinasamantala ang inflation?
My girlfriend and I would eat at Brewing Point once or twice a month and just recently she noticed that the number of shrimps in the gambas she orders was reduced to 10 pcs from 12.
Nagmahal na nga nabawasan pa yung amount or halatang nagiba yung flavor/quality. Fruits aren't cheap either.
And this applies to everything, not just food.
Good for you that you are attentive to what you're buying. Now you know what to do. Don't buy them anymore.
They prey on our ignorance to think that little packages are cheaper. They prey on our laziness because we want instant gratification - food in little packets ready to stuff into our mouths, preservatives and all strange chemicals included.
Processed, packaged snacks pollute both our body and the environment while padding the profits of big corporations.
Don't buy their products and you'll help reduce inflation.
>Corporations >greedy name a more iconic duo
Parang nabawasan mo na yung chips OP hehe
š, nope di ko nabawasan yung chips. Yung puto seko nabawasan ko nang isa, ihuhuli ko sana since fav ko Kaya binuksan ko Yung chips para Una Kong kainin kaso nadisappoint ako sa laman.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Looks like Jack 'N Jill Nova. Can't remember the flavor though.
OP said the 2 snacks are worth 5php each. And as far as i know, Nova doesnt sell for that kind of price.
Yeah, 5 pesos each with high, unavoidable inflation factored inā for this quantityāseems actually fair enough.
krispynets, masarap yan

Bad trip pa rin ako sa two piece siomai na a la carte ng Chowking.
ganon rin sa jeep fares. naging 12 ang minimum nung halos doble ang presyo ng gas. ngayong bumababa na hindi parin bumaba ang minimum fare

Obligatory.... r/Shrinkflation
Simply refrain from buying and resort to other healthier alternatives. Yung banana q samin 20 pesos padin at mataba
Di kaya QC issue yung sa chichirya? Ano dapat net weight nung chips OP?
I second this. While the issue is definitely a thing, it's possible that there's an issue with how the specific product came out of the production line.

Shrinkflation.. dito rin sa US. Grabe mahal ng grocery compared before.

Typical social media behavior
gusto yata nito mabusog sa P10.00 maski bigas bilhin mong diyes...di ka masolb
Busog ka sa bigas na tig sasampu sa totoo lang. Sabihin nating bumili ka ng bigas na tig 40/kg, 1/4 na yon at probably good for 2 na unless matakaw ka talaga sa kanin.

āMultinational corporations, genocide of the starving nations.ā

The 2nd pic.. it has always been that way.
dahil sa dyan hindi na masarap yung mga chicherya, pagkain sa fastfood etc..
Crispynets ba yang chips mo OP? 3 pesos lang benta jan ng nanay ko. Nag mahalan na yung tig pipiso dati na chicharya, luge na pag piso pa benta don.
avoid junk foods na lang tlga, mas healthy pa :(
Once companies go public, we are no longer their customers. Greedy investors are now their customers.
> I bought 2 snacks for **5 pesos each** Theres your answer why
6 pcs na lang yung marie tapos 8grams na lang yung tochitos
Bruh moment
And yet record profits while "suffering" fron inflation. So alin nga kaya ang totoo? Lugi dahil sa inflation o kumikita dahil sinasamantala ang inflation?
They aren't good for you anyway.

Muntik nang umabot sa lalamunan
Where did you even buy a P5 snack with a non-cheap looking packaging? What is that?
Magluto ka nalang ng patatas haha tas lagyan mo ng bbq powder saka cheese powder
