When we stop buying mass produced goods, we’re not exactly tempted to go back! Not to mention processed foods riddled with junk, the packaging that costs almost more than the products it contains, and superfluous plastic wrappers sometimes even hiding MORE wrapping underneath it, rather than what is advertised on the image on the packet. And all this plastic, just to present you with a two or three miserable biscuits? Ah, the scam that is marketing.
1/ Three measley pieces of chocolate underneath all that
In a packet three times the size of its contents! Environmental awareness, anyone?
2/ A leopard doesn’t change his spots, but a panda does apparently!
We would have fallen for it too….
3/ Well placed pepperoni
The manufacturers wanted to show off all their best pepperoni. All in one corner!
4/ Cosmetics that apparently need their space
Are we cutting down trees for nothing? Painful to see.
5/ Some of the capsules seem to have disappeared
In the depths of their XXL packaging. But no, they’re all there….
6/ A tube of glue that’s feeling lonely
Among the empty pockets full of air. A factory error, or deliberate marketing?
7/ Are we seeing double?
A very sneaky technique to make you think you’re getting a good deal.
