Inside the bubble $4 eggs a given. Outside $1.45, for regular eggs, egg land best $2.40. Just have to get out of the price gouging area of TV

When was the last time you bought eggs(non expired) for $1.45? I was in two different states over Christmas, and they were $4 plus.

SYSCO supplies 15 dozen eggs for $37.35 delivered that’s $2.49 per dozen

Christmas Eve, and who buys expired anything? That is not a store I would shop trying to sell expired anything

That is an amazing price. Wholesale price of eggs hit $5.45/dozen last week vs $1.70 a year ago.

I only buy fresh local eggs. Grandma had a chicken farm so I was spoiled at an early age to enjoy only fresh eggs.

I guess it isn't really a tax increase.

I’m thinking about buying a couple of chicks from Rural King if people can have 2 dogs well 2 laying hens would be the same. I’ll call them emotional and support in 12 weeks I figure I’ll be getting 14 eggs weekly.

Just don't leave those small plastic bags along the street.:1rotfl:

About same here in UK.
Just paid $4.08 (£3.38) for a dozen extra large free range.
Avian flu still a problem here as well, then add the ever rising cost of feed grain, and you have the perfect storm.

Prices rising is largely a supply and demand issue. Pretty common especially lately. But things usually return close to normal in the long run.
