I looked at avocado at the grocery yesterday, but all I could do was look -

$1.99 EACH for some pretty sad looking ones here in Anchorage, Alaska.

They sell for over $2 apiece over here , or you can get 3 baby

avocados for $3.42. As they are never in season here, prices stay the

same all year round. Sometimes you just have to splash out though.

Deanna,

 

Like I said before I live in Alaska. Right now avocados are on sale at one

store I went to for about 4 for $5. Costco has them for about 5 for $5. English

cukes I just bought at costco for about 3 for $3. Usually prices are more

expensive in AK. However, I do live in an area of AK (near Anchorage) which has

the least expensive in the state.

Boy! I live in Pennsylvania and our Haas avocados are a lot more

expensive. If you are lucky you can get them for $1.75 a piece and that is

from somewhere like Walmart where the produce is cheaper. In a grocery

store they can go for close to $3. a piece. Our English cucumbers are

close to $2 and regular cukes right now are going about 89 cents a

piece. I can't wait til summer when our markets are open and the prices

are much cheaper. By the way these prices aren't even for the organic

veggies. I wish we had your prices.
