Has anybody else noticed this blatant example of 'skimpflation'.
Tanqueray London Dry Gin is now  41.3% alcohol by volume , down from 43.1% If you can find any of the 43.1% stuff still knocking around I advise you to get in quick before it disappears.

I think Mr Sainsbury's bog rolls have become narrower of late; there was a distinct difference in height between a couple of rolls on my bathroom windowsill.

Not being a gin drinker the former passes me by but being a user of the latter ...

We buy ours from Serious Tissues.   Just our choice you understand but they get delivered to the door (repeat order due tomorrow), they seem to last longer than other brands tested and they are neither too harsh nor too soft.

At least, in bogroll reviews, this is mine!  🤭

I'm also no gin drinker.
Took the chance to lay one sheet on another and note around 8 millimetres disparity.

Sneaky!
