maybe a dozen of really expensive potatoes?

Well, that made me search for "most expensive potatoes" and sure enough, some exotic potatoes go for $300/pound. til. http://www.luxuo.com/lifestyle/gastronomy/potato-la-bonnotte...

Or a single Faberge potato...

(edit: Holy shit, that exists...)

Yeah, I hear those potatoes are the shit over in Palo Alto along with pink BMW's for 16th birthdays.
