Today I purchased a package (9 oz.) of frozen SeaPak(R) "Jumbo Breaded

The breading is spread out to make them look large but, when the
breading comes off, the shrimp look very much less than medium in
size. What the heck is going on in this world? Is nothing any good
any more? I would suggest that anyone who buys such products take
them back to the store and get a full refund - which is what I am
going to do.

And I just went back to the store and got the total refund!

Must have been the corner Quickie Mart for you to make it there and
back in 30 minutes. Did they also refund your time and gas?

It was a large grocery store only a few miles away. The only problem
is that the store will probably absorb the cost rather than
manufacturer SeaPak(R).. One does not worry about time, gas, etc.,
when a principle is involved.

I'm not so sure about the grocery store absorbing the cost. Not that I
know any better, but I 'bet' the grocery store keeps tabs and deducts
the cost of the one 'unit' against its next delivery from the vendor.
Same thing goes for any other products I'd imagine. I know there are
some instances where a retail/grocery store will absorb costs, but
perhaps not when it comes to national brands and the like (?).

Sky, who knows nearly nothing about merchandizing.
