badly_knitted's Fluff Emporium

It's really a big letdown to society.:(

Yeah, Cadbury is your usual safe bet for a reasonable price. Sometimes I will try the European ones but Milka and Gyllian have not tasted like they originally did in years.

I use to love them. So disappointed. I don't know why quality has gone down. Is it an economy thing? I got no idea!*shrugs*

Really is =C

Probably. Manufacturers change recipes to use cheaper ingredients... It's sad =(

What does =C mean?*ignorant*

Well that's how they lose my business.:(

It's a shame but what can you do?*shrugs*

So true, I distrust anything labelled 'new, improved recipe'.

=( is sad

=C is even sadder (I've only just started using it for things where =( doesn't seem to adequately express my level of sadness)

Me too. I'm usually skeptical when they label products like that. It would be wiser just to test it first.

Like a trial period. Sometimes they do that but usually it's all about making money and not caring if consumers will still be satisfied.*assuming*

I believe people would spend a little more if the quality was there.:(

I also find the whole concept of local products being more expensive than those from overseas unacceptable. I'm not sure why that's the case.*goes to research*

It really does seen idiotic that imports are cheaper than home-made or grown.

So many times, something has been improved so much I can no longer eat it =(

I believe every worker should be paid fairly and equally. I don't understand why this isn't the case. It sounds like corruption to me.

I understand the disappointment you must feel. I've been there too.:(

Yes, but employers always seem to find loopholes that allow them to pay there workers less, and business always buy products as cheaply as they can. =(

I hate corruption. Like anyone else who believes in morals. There needs to be some serious monitoring of shady stuff like ripping off workers.

I know it can also happen the other way around where people steal from work. I don't get how someone thinks that way either!

I don't think profting off someone elses good intentions is really benefiting in the long run. Karma is bound to catch up with them. That's usually how it stops.

The trouble is that greed is rife everywhere you look. Everyone wants something for nothing, they just don't think of how they're doing other people out of the basic necessities. The rich get richer, the poor get poorer. You're right, there should be better monitoring to prevent people getting ripped off. =(

If they was no such thing as greed, it could happen. Humans are selfish to a certain degree. It's a fact. Being one hundred percent selfless is rare.

I'm trying to give more to charity than I did before. I need to work again so I can support others more than myself.

I give what I can when I can, because there are always people worse off. I do what I can to help. The richest people are the greediest though. Those with the least give the most to help others.

Usually its the lower income society that gives more than the rich because of knowing how to relate to the situation.

Some rich people can't empathize. There are those who complain about taxes. Saying they earned they're money so why should they give a part of it away who didn't work for it. They don't see the whole picture.

Rich people live in a world of privilege. Take their money away and they'd be in for a huge shock. Those of us who don't have a lot help others whenever we can because we know someday we might be the ones needing a little extra help.

I bet most rich people don't know about buyer's remorse because of all that disposable money.

The closet I've seen rich or privileged people freak out over no money is when they're challenged as part of some reality TV show.
