Depending on location. Prices vary on hat I have seen from 7.99 to 8.99.
Is there a limit?
Here is the trick: "wet aging", as performed by most steakhouses, involves simply putting the sealed loin in the refrigerator (NOT freezer) for 3 to 4 weeks. There is no air inside the vacuum-sealed loin so it can't "rot", but rather the anaerobic conditions break down the connective tissue etc so it is much more tender and has a slightly better flavor. When finished aging, just take it out, cut up, and freeze individual steaks (a vacuum sealer works best - good for up to a year in the freezer).
"Dry" aging is hardly done anymore, because it involves hanging a whole side or hindquarter for a week at roughly 50 degrees, where it "rots" on the outside. The greenish rot is cut away, leaving a tender and better-flavor steak. BUT few have a dedicated 50-degree cooler just used for aging, and there is 20% waste when all is cut away.
With "wet aging" you get 70% of the benefit of dry aging with zero % of the hassle or waste.

I do it all the time whenever steak is on sale. I've never noticed any issues. You just have to be careful not to get too make salt/pepper in the bag near where you want to seal because it can block the seal. I always double seal.
