The smaller ones aren't worth it unless you're planning to juice a lot at once (with an electric juicer) and save the juice. Otherwise, you end up having to juice more than one lime for just one drink. Since extra large lemons are the same price as a regular size lime, I just change up my home beverage selection for a while to include drinks calling for lemon rather than lime, until the prices drop again.
