Deary deary me, have they shrunk or what? I’m sure the chocolate used to peek out very noticeably from its fancy sleeve. No more. About 20% smaller/thinner. Also less minty than I remember. Christmas is close to being ruined.

Mars bars still get me. I used to eat them in 3 sittings as a kid. Obviously I'm bigger, I won't deny that, but they used to be the size of a brick, now they're like a fun size.

Quite right. Wagon Wheels should shrink every year until they no longer exist. Terrible things.

They've all got smaller. Look how big Snickers were once. They were even larger when they were Marathons. Def info.

I don't get the whole 'fun-size' thing anyway. Surely making something like that much smaller than the standard size isn't anyone's idea of making them more fun?

Worse than that, each segment is now concave. It isn't even a solid ball of chocolate anymore.

I would far rather they just put the price up but retain the product as it was.

My husband got us a tub of Quality Street yesterday - they are so SMALL now. Probably got about 10 chocolates in as well. The tins we used to get when I was a kid lasted us months and the tin was useful afterwards as well.

I bought some recently, for the first time in years, also got some with a G&T flavoured centre, they were surprisingly good.

No idea when I began here, was a very long time ago. Previously known as Spirit_of_81. Love cheese, hate the colour of it, this is why it requires some blue in it.

World Market has them along with a lot of other overpriced imported Brit treats. $25 for a tin of quality street! Luckily a recently opened independent “international food mart” has just opened in my town and they have a great selection of British chocolate (shout out to the underrated Galaxy ripple) and... they have tins of quality street for just $15. Probably gonna check the sell by date first...

I'm still sulking after trekking out to some shop that promised British goods only to discover it was all Irish stuff.
