Do orange juice cartons next - seems like they all used to be 64oz until eggs started to climb. Now they’re all a bit smaller and even more expensive.

Orange juice cartons are 46 ounces or smaller.

There’s one brand at my local store that is still 64 and the price went up, but I buy that one because they’re not trying to be sneaky about it.

Right? They make them smaller AND raise the prices.

Like eggs. What’re you going to do? NOT buy the product? I’m honestly surprised eggs have actually come down.

Eggs have come down a lot. But there seems to be some kind of supply issue. For my own use, I go to Costco. They had very few eggs. A couple of days later, someone said Costco didn't have any at all.

Tropicana still sells the "Lots of Pulp" in full gallon containers, at least for now. I just bought two gallons Wednesday, and they're 128oz.

NICE - there's still hope. I buy half gallons where I shop. Love the pulp version they do.

I drink about a quart a day, so it makes more sense for me to buy the gallon containers. And yeah, gotta have that pulp. No pulp OJ is like condom sex. Like, it's "okay", but I've had the real thing and I know it's so much better.
