		<description>Yoplait Kids Yogurt was my find last night offering 1/2 the product for the same cost as always.  You now get 4 cups instead of 6 and each only contain 3oz instead of 4oz as you got just a month ago.  

Total it up, you are going from 24oz total to just 12oz.

		<description>Ok how about Great Northern Beans. Do you know its actually about .13 cheaper an ounce to buy the cans vs. buying a large jar of them. It used to be the other way around.</description>

		<description>They have been down-sizing for at least 3 or 4 yrs. Just seems more noticable now because more companies are doing it. I have always been a savvy shopper, I always whip out the calculater to see how much per ounce. I am the youngest of 6 so I know how to shop for the best bargain having watched my mom. Some companies are changing shape of container to appear to be bigger, look at how much is in that container always. You&#039;d be surprised how often the small size is cheaper and just buy more of it. lol</description>

		<description>It is such a bummer to hear that companies are doing this. I understand they need to save money like the rest of us, but being sneaky about it isn&#039;t fun for anyone...</description>
