Owning a single Twinkie? Priceless. Just kidding – it's actually $5K

11/17/2012

No more Beluga caviar and champagne with Twinkies for dessert: The Twinkie is too expensive. Since manufacturer Hostess announced its closure and thus the death of the Twinkie, eBay watchers found a seller of the sweet treats on the auction site with a starting bid of $5,000 — per Twinkie. For those unwilling to risk a bidding war, a "buy it now" price of $7,000 is also an option. The winning bidder will be gratified to know that shipping is free on the item, but they might be disappointed to find many boxes of Twinkies on eBay, for about $30 each. [Source]
