If the real weight does not seem to match the stated weight, you become suspicious.
In this case, however, the re-weighing provided an extremely positive surprise.
Munich – When do you ever get more for your money than you think?
Even twice as much?
Precisely because this is the absolute exception for the consumer, such a case receives a lot of attention.
The sweets manufacturer Haribo made his fans happy in this way – albeit unintentionally.
The re-weighing - often a reason for disillusionment - provided happiness hormones here.
A user on TikTok shared her experience on the platform.
@nanette.official everyone runs to Penny 🤣 #faultproduction #haribo #fürdich #hahaha #gummibärchen #viral #error #funny #merry #fyp ♬ Original sound - Nanette
"My friend just came to me with the Haribo bag and says it's a bad production, it's much too heavy," she says, and you can tell that she doubts this realization.
She turns over the Haribo Chameleon pack.
"It should be 175 grams," she says.
There is only one solution left: on the scales with it.
She throws the package onto a kitchen scale and indeed – the scale shows exactly twice that, 350 grams. “Thanks, Haribo!” says the TikToker and writes the appeal for her video: “Everybody run to Penny!”

"That's the six of the Haribo bag"
Other TikTok users are happy for them.
"How lucky can you be" or "jackpot" are many comments.
The video garnered over 77,000 upvotes (as of January 19, 12:27 p.m.).
Another comment: "That's the six of the Haribo bag, there's a lot less in the packaging at the moment." Anecdotes are also shared: "My teacher once had a Haribo frog with his gummy bears and wrote to Haribo about it."
Another user reports a similar case: "Once had a Milka with a row more in it.
I put it on Ebay and got 40 euros.” An “insider” also spoke up: “I work at Trolli, Haribo thinks the same thing.
Yes, it happens a lot and usually we don't do it because we're happy about it." Meanwhile, another "insider" reports: "I work at Penny.
I'll check the display tomorrow."
The fact that you get more for the money than you think is rather unusual - recently an Aldi customer complained about the small amount in his bag of chips.
