I think you're out by, um, 4 orders of magnitude? I'm reading your post as £51950/kg i.e. 50k a kilo. But actually your link puts the prices as a very respectable 519.5p a kilo i.e. roughly a fiver a kilo which is in the right ballpark for me. Maybe this was a joke that I didn't get? EDIT: You edited your post after I made this, but like a fiver a kilo for lamb sounds pretty doable to me.

> fiver a kilo for lamb sounds pretty doable to me That's wholesale/supplier pricing, not supermarket/butcher. No idea what GP's point was though so I'm not commenting on/defending anything else!

  Yeah - I have no idea where I can buy lamb that cheap. We can get deer really cheap from a pest control guy, and we still pay more than £5 a kg (think he charges £5 a pound, as he is old school) and it is some of the cheapest (and best) meat we can buy. Unfortunately once my wife and kids realised what type of deer is was (generally the little muntjac deer) they all went off it.
