10 Things That Are Really Expensive Right Now

With the economy still suffering, demand for goods has been generally low. This, paired with low availability in many cases, has forced the prices of a number of goods to inch toward new highs. 24/7 Wall Street lists 10 products that are at or near their all-time greatest costs:

1. Turkey: Just in time for Thanksgiving, wholesale, frozen turkey is selling at its highest prices ever—$1.09 per pound—due in part to high feed prices. 24/7 notes that grocers will like take the hit, rather than passing the higher costs to consumers.
2. Cotton: Cotton futures are sell at an all-time high of $1.58 per pound last week, due primarily to an extreme shortage of cotton production in China.

3. Used cars: A number of factors, including low demand and last year's "Cash for Clunkers" program, have forced the average price of used cars up to $15,870, the highest it's ever been.
