Cheap cooked ham - where to buy?

I used to buy cooked ham (cheap one like this) at price chopper. used to be like $0.69 or $0.89 per 100g, now I can't find it anywhere :(

That's like $5/lb which is on par with the whole hams in the supermarket.
You'll have to cut it yourself but you get a better thing than pressed "ham" loaf.

Nope. That's why I'm on the internet arguing with strangers. If I had anything better to do I'd probably be doing it.

has a lot of salt and preservatives. This isn't really suitable long term as a food.

Unrelated... but somewhat related.
What do you think of those big ham shoulders?
Its more "meaty". But its cheap and delicious. I see it for $1 per pound sometimes!
I slice thin with an electric knife. Great for sandwiches, eggs, fried rice, or on top of a salad.
This cheap yet semi-nutritious meat helps me stretch my budget. Its lean. The only thing to worry about is sodium :)

Not OP, but if I were to buy ham for a sandwich, this is what I'd buy.
The price of junk ham (ie the one OP wants) is hilarious compared to real ham like you're talking about.

I did the math a while ago and you could literally pay for a commercial slicer in about a year just from savings from sandwiches.
The other plus side is that you get *GASP* real meat instead of pressed "meat" products.

I don't think I've ever seen it cubed in retail.
Just buy a whole one and cube it yourself.

Have you ever tried those canned ones.
I've tasted it before and it was decent.
Food Basics has the 1lb can of Swift on sale this week for $2.99
Freshco has 340 can of Mario on sale for $3.
these would actually be decent for cubing.
