Ridiculous.

I agree. Went to my MIL's for Thanksgiving last year. She really doesn't want to cook anymore and deal with dishes. She ordered a turkey (very large one) with all the sides from a local restaurant and it was delicious! All that for less than $160.

Wowzer! I just saw this. Same size as a KC ham, but well over TWICE the price. Some people think the KC is high, but it's an excellent ham. I've purchased it many times over the years and was always very pleased.

I don't usually jump on the 'are you kidding me with this price' bandwagon, but this is shockingly high. Just wow!!

Maybe there is something superior about it - I don't know, as I just happened upon the presentation beginning (I'm in the 30minute buffer so I'm behind live tv). I can't really imagine what would make it worth almost $100 more than the KC brand, but who knows!

Do you know what groceries cost here in California?..... Keeps going up, up, up.

Anyway, I am one person and don't need a big ham and I don't like them pre sliced..

If you're rich, have a big family and are very busy, I guess this would make sense. I adore Martha but our lives are very opposite.

I live in California and agree that things are really expensive here and getting worse, but I have never seen a $160.00 ham. Think you are paying for the name, all her food products seem to be way over priced.

$325 for A PURSE? $60,000 FOR A CAR? $5.50 for a loaf of bread? $19 for a can opener? $3 for a bottle of water? $4 for a cup of coffee?

Are we looking for things that make sense here?

Coffee costs more than $4 in most places in my area, $325 for decent purse is a great deal,

$19 can opener, $5.50 bread, $3 water are pretty normal to me.

But $160 ham seems fairly pricey! lol

All the above seem reasonable to me. Ham at $160 not in my world. I’ll go to Costco.

None of the items mentioned seem fairly priced. $5.50 for a loaf of bread?? You're kidding!!! Even though I could afford to there is no way I would spend that much money and $160 for a ham? Does it come with a chef to cook it and serve? What a joke!

I didn't see the bread, but I pay $5.99 for the bread I choose at the grocery store. So, depending on what it is (like not just a gross loaf of white bread or something, right?), that's not out of line.

Martha's turkey day ...turkey breast.....was a flop - if you read the Reviews. I ordered only 2 side dishes - ugh - down the disposal and got my money back. She has the same sides with this ham - - and the Reviews on the mashed potatoes made me laugh - yes, out loud - and some Reviews were really sad - some people just threw the whole dinner in the trash.

I really like Costco 's ham, and it doesn't cost $160!

I agree what is QVC thinking . and 59.00 for crossiants I am still in disbelief . Please remove Martha Stewart and her high price items QVC you are not doing your customers any favors.
