    I know the prez said he’d drop the price of groceries on day one, but he got a little sidetracked by his side project of destroying the country. But give him a few more weeks to get that done and then I’m sure he’ll get right back to the groceries.

    Anecdote: My Trumpster in-laws could not stop yacking about “Biden’s high eggs prices” just last month. Haven’t heard a peep about the price of eggs since Trump came back. Now it’s just “God’s will.”

      Nows your chance to return the favour. Complain to her about how expensive eggs are now under Trump.

        Nu-uh Fox and friends said it was DEI and wokeness causing eggs prices to soar.

        I know it is fun to think about getting back at these people but it doesn’t really work. They were never rational to begin with.

    Phew, are you OK over there? For comparison in Germany it’s 2€ for 10 eggs, or 2,40€ for cage free. Eggs from the farmer start at 3,50€. In my area anyway.

    I can’t believe buying chickens actually saved me money, I just did it because I wanted chickens. I expected to pay more per egg (considering food and litter) because I don’t have economies of scale like the large producers do.

    In Colorado stores must sell cage-free eggs now. The law just went into effect.

    Wow. I saw people mentioning this on another thread and I posted that we can get 15 Medium Free Range Eggs in the UK for $3.37. Could find cheaper than that if I shopped around.

    Hate to be that person, but now that they know people are willing to pay it- it’s probably not going to ever go back down.

    Kinda irrelevant, but get fucked Eggslut. Worst place to work for, owners are a bunch of liars and have terrible management practices. This is absolutely killing them and I love that for them.

    In hawaii we cant get eggs at all for the past week or two-- or even those milk carton pints of liquid eggs. I was told at the foodland today to come at 5am tomorrow when the doors open and theres always just a few boxes. So… I guess I get up at 430 tomorrow. Then elbow the old ladies – or whatever I need to do to get to the eggs first.

    They are mean and have canes but they can’t take a punch and I can run to the egg aisle first.

      This sounds like the stories my grandma told me about the GDR. They also had to get up early to get basic necessities, otherwise they were gone.

    They’re cage free/organic. Those are always more expensive.

      Do people in the US buy caged eggs?! In the UK free range is almost a ubiquitous minimum.

      cage free is better than nothing, but if it were organic it would say so and not just cage free I suspect. I’m not even sure they’re free-range, maybe they’re just all in a barn with no access to outside fields?

      even if they were ecological, to me that seems expensive

      I don’t know what cage free means but I do know it’s marketing speak designed to tempt me away from free range. Not buying it.
