How can you guys sell these for $56.98 when they are sold at other retails for only $19.99 for the same quantity

They're staple here in L.A.  You can get them at most gas stations and convenience store. They are good but definitely over priced by the Q.

When we lived in So Cal we bought these at a local store. Fav was the beef and potato. Bought a large box frozen for a few $. Can't recall how much as it was over 16 yrs. ago. When we made trips back to So Cal we would pick some up along with Xlnt Chili, keep frozen for a quick trip home, and enjoy! 

 

Can't get them in the PNW where we now live. I was drooling watching the presentation, but there is no way ever that I would pay this much.

@qbetzforreal @fashionny  OMG do I miss those! I am originally from Torrance in So.Cal. and relocated out of necessity after my DH died in 2009, moved to WA state in 2010.

 

We bought those all the time at the 7-Eleven a block from home. They are YUMMY! I saw them here but I only like the beef & bean and beef and potato.

 

And the price was out of my budget at the time. I"m almost drooling just thinking about them.

 

When I was in high school in the 60's the lunch truck carried them and that's when I fell in love with Ramona's.

@Love my grandkids- they are still in Torrance.  We would have beef and potato ones for breakfast.

@qbetzforreal Oh I know. I go visit every year and stop by "our" 7-Eleven for them.

@WildDunes -We bought Ramona's Beef & Potato ones at a local Mexican market for 2/5.00 recently. Except for the Ramona's brand we can't find beef & potato anywhere else.  Mostly we seen beef & bean.  They are good but sometimes the filling is kind of mushy and sometimes chunky.  Not consistenly good.

That's an outrageous price tag. 12 burritos for 60 dollars? No thanks

@WORKING GAL  The beef & potato were all I would eat. Hubby liked the beef & bean also. I bought both for the freezer. I would love to find them again - and I would greatfully pay $2.50 for them. Hubby has tried other brands here locally, but always beef & bean, and hubby hasn't found one he likes. Have never run across any beef & potato.
