Re:How shrinkflation is playing havoc with economists’ models by segfaultbuserr on Sunday August 11, 2019 @01:05AM (#20666348)
Also occurred in China after 2007. First it was just the usual inflation of the general level of price, the most obvious sign was the inflating price of food in supermarkets and meals in restaurants. However, as it progressed, the restaurant owners seemed to believe that, if they keep rising price, it would be extremely unpopular, so the prices kept roughly at the same level, but the amount of food in the dishes becomes smaller and smaller.
