If I want to by a six pack of 8 ounce sodas, they often cost as much as a 12 pack of 12 ouncers.

Simple demand (or more properly, lack of demand).
Since few people want the 8 ounce size, they sell less so must make more per unit sold. If they can't make enough to make it worth their while, they will simply quit making the smaller size altogether.

It has to do with the cost to produce the bottles, and that there is more demand for the 12oz/12packs.
