As I searched the shelves of Aldi for my usual body lotion, I was surprised to find it had had a change of shape, from the former graceful convex lines to a less attractive, in my view, concave curve. On examining the contents lists, guess what; the volume had changed from 500ml to 400 ml - yes, a 20% decrease!
Of course, I do not have a calculator in my pocket and, although I know my mobile phone can work such wonders, I haven't yet mastered that particular function - and probably never will - age being against me in that department. The maths would not be straightforward anyway, the price not making the arithmetic easy! The cost of the bottle may have followed suit to match the lesser amount - but I bet it hasn't!
