… twelve?
All the downvotes are from bakers
And I thought $6 was expensive.
I know you said USA, but maybe an interesting data point: €2.28 or $2.38 in Catalonia, Spain.
39kr~=$3.54 for a dozen in Sweden.
US mid-Atlantic: Pricing is elevated, but strange; some eggs that are usually higher cost now cost less than the typically lower cost eggs. For example (all for dozen large eggs):
Store brand, conventional: $6.93
Store brand, cage free: $4.95
Store brand, organic free range: $4.59
Eggland’s Best (premium brand): $4.99
$7, WA.
i buy my eggs from Janice down the street, $2/dz plus i bring her my table scraps to feed her chickens.
Like 6$
Was 3$ a month ago
About $5.50 for a dozen of the brown, non-organic ones. Kinda middle-tier. This is central texas btw.
Similar pricing in SE Michigan
Chicago, $5.15, Aldi
In Sjælland, Denmark: 3.7 USD if you buy nice, organic, local eggs. In Argentina, maybe 2USD. But they are not organic.
This is usually the cheapest one at my store. woodman’s, madison, wi:
American Midwest, my small city, a dozen eggs are about $5.50 – $7
Seattle $5.99 in town, $4.99 outside the city, $5 farm signs by the road.
Oregon valley is 4.25 for grade A from costco and winco was 4.50. Its up about 0.50 in the last few weeks.
Good thing the orange one will fix those prices soon by doing a something at some point…
Side note, WTF is up with diesel? 30 cent increase in 2 days.
So, we’ve got a range.
The cheapest set of generic eggs is the Penny Smart Grade A Large Eggs for $3.99, but my local grocery also has another set of eggs that appears to be equivalent in quality from the store brand for $4.99. There’s also cage free for $7.99 and another cage free that looks to be identical from the same brand for $8.69. Generic organic (cage/etc not listed) in the plastic container is $6.99.
Western Nebraska, basically Wyoming: non organic are in the range of five bucks at the grocery store. Organic is anywhere from 6 to 8. I get locally-raise ones for 3.50 a dozen at my mechanic’s shop :) Just have to pay cash.
This economy is stupid.
All prices in USD in case that wasn’t clear
Texas. $7.50, but I buy the organic, pasture-raised, fair trade, small batch, artisinal eggs where the chickens are all partial owners of the egg-laying co-op. It’s a chicken coop co-op.
The price has gone up significantly, like $2 or more, since last month. I don’t remember what it was exactly, but I’ve never spent $7.50 for fucking eggs.
Regular cage-free was like $5.50. Didn’t see any of the normal sad chicken eggs last time I went.
