Trickflation
(lemmy.world)
What are you doing step inflation!?
We've had those bottles for years now here in Sweden.
The reason for the change to the taller thinner can is because the amount of aluminium used in the top and bottom is less. The top and bottom in an aluminum can is the thickest parts.
The price increase has nothing to do with it though..
While the chapter can statement us true, they definitely took the chance to up the price if the dates match. Capitalism at it's best.

This must be that soft landing 3% inflation I've been hearing all about.
They'll switch back to the normal can soon enough...with the raised price, so they can do it again...
