If you're on a tight budget you're better off buying the cheap veggies likes carrot that can be had for $1-2/kg year-round, and of course rice. Pumpkin can be readily had for around $2.50/kg for much of the year as well (as it is right now as it happens):

If it did come in a tin it'd be very unlikely to be cheaper than (or even the same as) the fresh price.
Canned food is cheaper than fresh always. Not as healthy, not as tasty, not as expensive. Why anyone would want to eat pumpkin canned or otherwise is beyond me. That shit is nasty.
Also, the things in your picture are not pumpkins. Just saying.
Farmer's markets often have great deals, as do dollar stores which sell groceries. Of course, you have to live with blemishes.
