I have noticed that and also with other things like boxes of crackers, ice cream, and coffee. They raise the price and cut down on the amounts.

I teach college class over lunch on a couple days, so when I get out, I need something to munch on before I get home for a late lunch. I got these protein bars (Nature Valley), and usually you get 6 in a box. I just grabbed a flavor, never looking to see how many. There were only 5 in the box! I won't get those again. Besides they were lousy!

People can't really be surprised can they? People have talked about this since the 50's. It's not a new phenomena. They try to do all they can to keep from raising prices.

Cheese is about the weight, the packages are still the same, sounds like he bought a 12 oz package????

Add to that the ever shrinking roll of paper towels or toilet paper. Inflation.

This JUST happened to me tonight--Ran to the store just to get a few things. Pretzels are a staple in our house, so when I saw a big, plastic tub of the original, large pretzels, on sale, I put them in my cart. Lo and behold, it said, 1 Pound Container. But right underneath that it said 12 ozs. Whuh??? 12 ozs. is not a pound. Last time I looked it was 16 ozs. Totally weird.
And yes, this has happened to me with cheese, bars, crackers, etc.
