From The Past: February 16, 2009

We went to Wal-Mart today to pick up a few things. One of the items on my list was hairspray.

When I picked up the can I immediately noticed the new lid. I tested the lid to see how hard it would be to take off and put back on; it came off with ease, so I shrugged and bought it. I always wonder why companies feel the need to change things.

When we returned home, I went to put the hairspray next to my almost-empty can and compared the two.

Not only is the lid different; there is a much bigger difference in the amount I get for the same price! Look here:

So, why did the company change? More dollars in their bank account 😉

I have discussed this before with many items. This shouldn’t surprise me, but it does. I just wanted you to know.
