Here's one bit of happy news to come out of the recession:  Many big companies--like Frito-Lay, The Snack Factory and Pepsi-Co--are offering major savings by swelling the size of their pckages as much as 20 percent without raising the price!  But you better take advantage of the savings while you can.  Experts predict that these special offers won't stick around once the economy fully recovers!
