They must be very good peaches.  I love peaches and the ones in grocery stores are hard and awful.  So I get them ocassionally from a gourment fruit store near me, they are expensive but worth it for a huge sweet juicy peach.  But I wouldn't pay THAT much.

 

A tip about hard peaches:  When you put them in a brown paper bag (close tightly), they become soft and juicy within a couple of days.

 

No that doesn't work.  It would work if you bought peaches from a farm stand that just needed that extra couple of days to ripen but the supermarket ones were picked long before they were ready and they never get ripe.

I think I would pay $2-$3 for one but I would not be buying a whole box.

I think we paid over $30 per box of peaches last year for Colorado peaches.

I'm pretty sure it weighs more than 2 lbs. It fills up one crisper drawer & I put the rest in a large bowl.

YUM!!! Can't wait to eat some yummy peaches. 

We usually go thru at least 4 boxes.

@Nightowlz.   Colorado peaches are worth whatever they charge for them.  They are heavenly.  Love, love a sweet, juicy peach.

No way will those peaches be coming here to West Virginia at that price!   I love peaches, but never buy unless the price is reasonable.   I usually just wait for my trucker daughter to buy them for us at a market in NC.

I was so tempted to get them, but I restrained myself.

I bought a 2 lb. bag of peaches yesterday at Aldi for $1.99 total- not per lb.

@Nightowlz I've heard a lot of people say they'd put that one on their's.  They might be running out of similar letters.

 

My problem though is that my husband died before me and I had to have him cremated.  He's in the WALL at Arlington National Cemetery because he was in the Honor Guard at Ft Myer, Va.  So, I guess I'll go there with him.

 

I don't think they'll let me put that on the wall.  Hummm??

Re: How Much Is A Peach Worth To You???

Well, let's see:  If you go to pick peaches somewhere, as many people do, or drive to buy them, how far is it, how much gas do you burn and what does the trip, including the peaches, cost?  Woman Surprised  We don't think much about that.
