Just got back from the grocery store and a dozen were marked at $5.48 in my town. That was pretty quick we are usually last to go back down being in the boonies.

Wake me up when they are a dollar nineteen.

Shit they haven’t been that low in Texas for 20+ years lol.

They were about 1.99 when I was a kid.

Research the history of bird flu & mad cow.

But if you don't care, just look up the latest H5N1 news article.

I’m familiar with the cause of the price increase. That’s why I wasn’t too panicked.

7.30 here.

We got up to about 9.38. Today we got them for $5.48. Still too high but a little better.

(These were at Walmart. I’m sure my HEB was cheaper.)


EDIT:

Anyone familiar with buying yard eggs by the way? Neighbor sells a dozen for $3. Do they spoil faster or?

Are you talking about Jumbo eggs?
Eggs were regularly these prices less than a decade ago.

Not where I live they weren’t for sure. I’ve been paying $3+ since I’ve been on my own. Every now and then I could get lucky for like maybe 2.58-2.99 or something.

(I do live in the middle of nowhere our Walmart isn’t even a full size super Walmart)
