Homemade Guac vs Store Bought Guac - Cost Breakdown

So according to the USDA's Weekly Advertised Fruit & Vegetable Retail Prices, the weighted average for a lime over the week of 1/26-2/1 was 37 cents for an inorganic lime and 85 cents for an organic lime. Over the same range, an avocado costs an average of 83 cents for inorganic or $1.48 for organic.

Our local Safeway carries large Hass Avocados for $2.89 apiece (small ones cost $1.79) and large limes cost 60 cents ($1.55 for organic).

Meanwhile, 8 ounces of Wholly Guacamole can cost $4.99 and it looks like the 16 oz jar next to it looks like it costs $6.99. While I didn't measure it, I'm thinking we could probably fill a 16 oz jar with  what we got out of two avocados, so I'm going to say - for now - that our homemade guac is the more economical of the two.
