Saw in the news yesterday that avian flu was just detected in MD and DE, decided to get another dozen at Aldi today while they are still $3.49. We go through about a dozen a week.

 

[sasywtch]

$7 a dozen in Sacramento at Wal Mart

LOL. $7.46.

Bought some at Ralph's (Krogers) in SoCal yesterday. $8.99 for a dozen. Another woman and I stared several minutes before taking a deep breath and buying them at that price. Crazy!

@slo Just saw that this week 30 eggs are on sale at Acme (Philly area) for $5.99. Based on this thread I'm grabbing them!

DD tried two different Acmes but both were sold out. No rainchecks.

I personally don’t want 30 eggs at a time but we were going to split them.

DH grabbed them Saturday afternoon while getting his free donut and a six pack of beer. The guy at the check out was like "wow, that's quite a discount on eggs and a FREE donut!" LOL.

I figured they would run out quickly with the eggs which is so annoying. I use eggs well past the best by date with no ill effects so I figure I'll either use them up or share with my parents. I also just started making egg bites in a mini muffin pan so I can freeze a batch or two to use up some extra. Between that deal and butter at Shoprite being on sale last week for $2.99/lb (limit 4) and actually in stock I feel like I at least got to take advantage of some good loss leaders.

Is that a "fancy" brand? Never heard of it.

When people ask about the price of eggs, I assume people are talking about the generic (cheapest) eggs available.

LOL. $7.46.

We just paid $7.42 for the Great Value Walmart brand for a dozen medium sized eggs. It was the last cartoon of Great Value eggs on the shelves.

Whatever other brands they sell were $9.95-$11.50/dozen. We don't shop at Walmart so I have no idea what other brands they were selling. I just looked at the prices.

 

[Tuffcookie]

Eggs, at Acme grocery store, in NE Ohio, are $5.99 a doz for the store brand. I admit I went into shock the first time I went to the store and saw the increase. I have boiled eggs every day so I’ll just have to get used to it.

I’ve never heard of that brand either. But in checking the apps for prices here just now, I saw Vital Farms is available at the Target stores in WNY for $7.29. Might be new to our area.

 

[AppleDumpling]

Saw them yesterday in a store that had none last week. $5.99.

 

[Meriweather]

Costco today $7.29 for 2 dozen. I didn't need them since we are leaving soon, but got some for DD and DIL.
Organic weren't much different $7.59

 

[ncc1701]

Depending on the Store anywhere from $4.00 to $6.00. If there is a sale maybe in the upper $3.00s. I mostly shop at Acme , Wegmans and ShopRite 12 count. I usually buy the store brand or England's Best Large. The bird flu seems to hit hard as the cases aren't as filled as a few months ago.

ordered my new chicks today... was going to take a break from keeping chickens as my current flock is down to two old hens, but the eggs over the last couple of years have been so chaotic I took the plunge and will build a new flock.

Getting Barred Rocks, Blue Laced Red Wyandotte, and Black Stars in case there are other curious chicken keepers here.

$5.29 a dz in Western Mass

My neighbors down the road keep a flock and that's where I get my eggs from. Much better price for sure.
