"You can see that the money runs out before the month is gone, you can see that people are buying smaller pack sizes at the end of the month," McMillon said.

They do need to eat, but they are eating less - and not by choice. They don't have the money to buy what they want to. No amount of advertising will fix that.

Smaller pack sizes cost more per unit!

People think they're saving money that way. They often aren't.

If you only have $10 you can’t buy the $12 pack with the lower per-unit price.

Being poor is expensive!

When you are stressed (because you have limited time, money and energy) you make poor decisions.

I would humbly suggest that you start engaging with more poor people and help educate them. (And I don't mean shouting advice as you walk by)

Poor people largely already know this. They don't need education about it. They need more money.
