A 9.5 lb. Jamon Serrano can be purchased at Costco.com for $200. That would be about $21/lb.

What would I do...I'd try the sample, say "thank you" then walk on by. They can keep their ham at that price.

If she walked by enough times she could get enough samples to make a sandwich.

At that price they will probably charge for a sample.

You can get 3 oz. on Amazon for $15 plus $5 shipping.

I think that price is outrageous and would never pay it or the 99.00 a pound...NO WAY.

$149.99/lb. $150.00 is what my goal is for groceries for a week to feed my family.

I believe that it is supposed to be made in a special way. It is supposed to be the best ham in the world. I wouldn't mind trying it.

[LucyGoose]

Do they only sell this ham at Christmas time? Why are you always waiting until Christmas to buy it?

And no, I wouldn't buy it. If it tasted that good, I would want it all the time and I just can't afford to keep buying a ham that expensive.

If I want something bad, I buy it. I figure I work hard for my money and can spoil myself now and then. Occasionally now and then happens too often, but I'm working on it.

I think the opposite. Food is the most important thing to spend my money on. It's what nourishes me and keeps me healthy. I will spend more on high quality fresh food. However, I wouldn't spend $150/lb on ham.
