Pennies Matter

Quick Post:

One of the takeaways from The Complete Tightwad Gazette by Amy Dacyczyn is pay attention to the pennies, they add up.

Inflation is happening all the time and everywhere.

As an example, these are recent changes in size and price of four rolls of toilet paper:


Date / Price / Number of Sheets:

10/2019 24.53 / 350
5/2019   24.50 / 400


Note: It is a common practice for manufacturers to change the size / volume of products and to keep the price the same or to increase price.
