    American here. A dozen eggs is 7 dollars. And I live in a poor area of the south. Fuck you mom and dad who voted for this. I tried to warn you.

      This is really strange to hear. I live in California, and the price is the same here. Everything here is typically a lot more expensive.

    Lol, you guys know we have eggs, right? They’re just roughly 60-80% more expensive right now.

    A dozen near me is currently $7, instead of $4.

    No need to stock up. The organic XL eggs from the farm shop are €0.45, and available every day. At night we can get the smaller (L or M) eggs from their vending machine.

        We actually have two of them here. One is at the farm shop, the other one at the poultry farm.

        The one at the farm shop offers eggs, milk, and apples. You drop in the money, enter the number of the flap you want, and it buzzes open.

        The one at the poultry farm only has eggs, but in different sizes (M and L) and amounts (6 or 10). You drop in the money, enter the number of the product, a lift rises towards that row and a pack of eggs is carefully pushed on that lift, and then the lift moves down to the flap where you can take you product.

        I prefer the vending machine at the farm shop, as the one at the poultry farm has once eaten my change…

        If you wonder about the farm shops products: It is an apple and pear farm, but they have vegetables, meat, and eggs, too, which they get from other farms and a local organic butcher - with the eggs coming from the same poultry farm.

        Not that I know of. But you have to keep in mind that outside the US, farms often have way higher standards of hygiene. Which might make the difference here.
