About this record.

A sourced, best-effort record of UK grocery changes.

Sourced.

Every item links to public sources: official data, press, trade reports or retailer pages.

Same product.

Like-for-like where possible: same line, pack, flavour and format.

Unit-priced.

Each item shows the unit price: per gram, ml, sheet, bag, bar or serving.

Inflation checked.

Charts compare the shelf price with an inflation-only benchmark.

Real unit.

The cost per gram, ml, sheet or bar after allowing for inflation. It captures price rises and smaller packs together.

Store checked.

Current prices are spot-checked online. In-store, loyalty and offer prices can differ.

Skimp separated.

Recipe, quality and portion concerns are kept separate from pack-size changes.

Personal project.

Shrunk is a personal project for understanding grocery changes. It is not a legal claim or formal consumer investigation.

Corrections welcome.

Mistakes are possible, especially with old packs and prices. Send corrections or dated receipts to admin@tahinny.com.
