If any product gets new packaging, you can bet the new one is smaller. I did pricing for a grocery chain for 16 years (quit about 3 years ago) and every year things were getting smaller. Does anyone remember when a bag of Hershey Kisses was 16 ounces? It was mid to late 90's when I first started in the pricing department. I had to include weights or quantities on all pricing signs I printed so I saw the decrease first hand. It has only gotten worse over the years. I noticed some "family sized" cereal boxes that were the size the regular cereal boxes used too be in the store a couple of months ago.
