That's OUTRAGEOUS!!!

I expect to pay a premium for imported goods at the market, but some prices are just plain robbery.  I pay about $2.75 for Goldfish crackers and macaroni & cheese, $2.25 for taco seasoning packets, $6.00 for cereal and Wishbone salad dressing, $10.00 for ricotta or  grated parmesan cheese .  My eyes about POPPED out of my head today when I saw a small 8-10 pound turkey for $50.00.  But that's not even what put me over the edge... $20.00 for a jar of Artichoke hearts, $18.00 for Phyllo dough, $60.00 for a fresh pumpkin!!!  Get real!  I can't imagine being that desperate to pay those prices.
