I have seen breakfast cereal "shrink" an ounce or 2 in the same size box and other similar "shrinks" but this one took the cake, er, cookie!

Sounds like you got the sugar-free variety by mistake. The regular cookies are 12.4 ounces, and the sugar-free are 8 ounces. You can get both at Publix, they're right next to each other.
For juuuust about $6 you can make your own chocolate chip oatmeal cookies, and you'll get approximately 60 cookies of the same size as the Voortman 20-pack. Even better, you can make a few rolls of cookie dough and freeze them in waxed paper - and then slice off however many cookies you want, and bake them in your toaster oven. Fresh hot oatmeal cookies any time you like, for less than the cost of over-processed wastefully packaged mediocre tasting store-bought cookies.
