Effective price-per-unit increase

At the tracked shelf price of $5.99, that's $0.2852 per oz before, versus $0.3153 per oz after — a 10.5% jump in cost per unit even though the sticker price never moved. This assumes the price held constant across the resize, which is the defining trait of shrinkflation.
