Anything from candy like Starburst, to granola bars, we are slowly getting more ripped off. When I was young, I could get a pack of Starburst for 40-50 cents and they were big squares of chewy goodness. Now days, they cost a dollar and are also much smaller quares. Also, clearly you can fit 16 granola bars in a box labeled for 10. I understand packing a little air in a bag of chips so we don't end up with all broken chips, but the companies are getting ridiculous with it. Some of you older people may notice that the ounces marked on various products is lower now than years ago, yet the box is the same size and the price still goes up. Why?
