It doesn’t matter whether your favorite is Milky Way, Mounds, Snickers, or even the venerable Hershey with Almonds, the only thing that strikes fear into your heart is the words, “New, Larger Size!”
… or something similar …
As kids we learned that an “extra 33%, free”, meant a hike in price was imminent, sending our beloved 35 cent bar to 40 cents, or even higher.
Schools tried for years to penetrate our thick skulls with economic theory, something an Almond Joy could tearfully teach us in five minutes …
You’d think them canny marketing fellows ate candy like we did, but no…
New tippet from Scientific Anglers containing 10% more than their competitors. Featuring a host of new features, functionality, and richly engineered packaging, all in a eye watering 30 meter spool.

Right! The major portion of my tippet discards are 3 to 12 years old because I dont use the current amount. Some of it is so old it’s got split ends! Phffft!
….Like Grandpa told me ” Somethings catch fish,somethings catch fishermen”
Sounds like those spools come with everything but a cold budweiser! Too complex for this ole fart.
Just before the “New, Larger Size!” was the smaller size at the same price.
