Source and evidence
Against official inflation: Eurostat HICP (IT) “other appliances, articles and products for personal care” changed +2.4% (12 months to Jan 2024). The size cut alone raises the price per bar by +33.3% if the shelf price stayed the same (the source recorded no prices). Every case is compared the same way in the ShrinkRadar Index.
