Effective price-per-unit increase
At the tracked shelf price of $5.49, that's $0.2815 per oz before, versus $0.292 per oz after — a 3.7% 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.
