Made butter croissants again this Sunday. But oops, there are only 5 left at last Saturday's price. That's a whopping 17% surcharge. Discounts and promotions are always grandly announced. Too bad, dear Migros

Price increases are the order of the day throughout Europe. In Germany, for example, a year ago butter was somewhere around 1.5 euros, today it is sometimes over 3 euros (branded product)... Inflation will bring even higher prices...
Hello Roendi61, There has been a change in production. There are now 5 instead of 6 butter croissants in the packaging. In addition to the improved cost situation and the avoidance of food waste, the change offers the following qualitative advantages: - Bigger, more voluminous peaks - Typical croissant structure à clearly more pronounced steps - More regular shape The individual products weigh more - so the total weight and price have remained the same. The packaging is better filled and more stable. Kind regards, Mia

It's unbelievable what marketing can come up with. Food waste can only serve as an argument when there are 0 peaks in it.

Prices are being massively tweaked everywhere and only in one direction, sharply in the direction of ⬆️ ⬆️ ⬆️ ⬆️ I think it's a real shame 🤮 AHV/IV and EL remain low The increase will not come until 1 Jan. 23 at the earliest, so we have to think 100x about what's still in it. Guaranteed no 🍓 🍒 🍑 🍑 etc. from the overpriced 🇨🇭 😒 😞 😔 https://www.20min.ch/story/1-dollar-kostet-1-franken-jetzt-heben-die-laeden-die-preise-zusaetzlich-an-813663270924

Not the first hidden price increase, and it won't be the last...

What does this have to do with avoiding food waste if the weight remains the same? Sorry, I really don't understand.....

It obviously has nothing to do with food waste; it's just another (miserable) attempt by Migros to justify the hefty price increase for the reduction from 6 to 5 croissants. The food waste justification is probably the joke of the day (I can still somehow understand the other reasons or they sound plausible, even if I don't believe them): How does Migros know how many customers have thrown away these croissants from the former 6-pack? Was there a tracker in the croissants and Migros was then able to determine that there was food waste and that's why they reduced it from 6 to 5 so that there was less food waste?

Are you not familiar with the baked croissant tracker? 🤣 Migros automatically sees how many people are sitting at the table and who is eating croissants 😉
