Shocked with the price of a pomegranate

Went to my local Co-op today to see the price of a single pomegranate at £0.75p each. And a jaffa orange at £0.30p each :eek: . Does this sound about right?
I came into this world with nothing and I'm gonna leave with nothing.

It's the end of the season here in Spain for oranges, the blossom is just on the trees now for the crop later this year
Our pomegranates aren't ready yet0 -
ASDA oranges = 26p each. Can't afford a pomegranate.The acquisition of wealth is no longer the driving force in my life.

Pomegranates are more like 95p at Tesco - yet in Greece I've seen them rotting on the ground. I think it's too expensive to pay people to pick them - yet someone must be making a profit at those prices.0

My daughter wanted one the other week in Tesco's, I was shocked to find they were 90 odd pence!£2 savers club. No.90. Aim £500.0

They're two for £1 at the Greek supermarket across the road from me ... I think they're the kind of thing that's cheaper from ethnic shops, rather than supermarkets where they're selling for silly prices since they got trendy - I think the Greeks discovered them before Nigella did lol!0

We paid 25p-30p for them when I was a kid, which was a few years ago now (I'm coming up 30) I remember because I used to buy them with my pocket money instead of sweets.One day I might be more organised...........
GC: £200
Slinkies target 2018 - another 70lb off (half way to what the NHS says) so far 25lb0 -
Going off the topic of pomegranate but I paid 28p for one lemon in Tescos yesterday. I was shocked at that price, I'm sure they were only 16p a little while ago?0

Thanks
I was a bit bemused on an OS forum.
These things are not native to our country, and if they're not in season to boot, then they're going to be more expensive?0
