Costs more but you get less

So I am standing in line at the BP gas station yesterday and look over at the "impulse" items. A big sign states that the King Size candy bars are just 99¢ each. King Size? The 3 Musketeer bar (now in mint) seems smaller than the "original" bars I bought as a kid...for 30¢! What is going on?

And it doesn't stop there. 

A jug of orange juice has risen in price and also reduced in size from 96 ounces to 89 ounces? 

Peanut butter is ounces less too, and a higher price.

Have you seen a Hershey bar lately? I didn't think they could make chocolate that thin.

And don't get me started on cereal, that's just wrong. 

There's a great article on CNNMoney, called "The incredible shrinking cereal box," (LINK). It outlines the growing trend of how companies are trying to offset the higher cost of food by shrinking products and not drawing a lot of attention. 

It's bad enough that food prices have gone through the roof but now we're getting less food.
