How does this pie cost you an extra $28?

Cool Whip US$2.29
Philly Cream Cheese US$2.59
Jello Vanilla US$0.99
Jello Orange US$0.99
Dole crushed pineapple US$1.59
Del Monte Mandarin orange US$0.89
Keebler lo-fat graham cracker crust US$2.34

Total of US$11.68

Those prices are without truly shopping about or substituting a
store-brand.

Just curious.
