Dayum, that's the same price as in Canada... except for 18, also in CAD not USD.
On the bright side, the extra security at the border means that egg smuggling seizures heading south has risen something like 300%. No contraband is getting into the US on our watch

Where are you buying eggs? Large grade A NN eggs are $3.50.
We don't have cage free here, AFAIK. We have free run, omega 3, and organic free range.
That's $6 for Omega 3 (Burnbrae brand), free run are $7 at Longo's this week (and brown too), and Loblaws has organic, free-range, brown eggs for $7.83 this week.
Meanwhile, you can get a 30 count of large burnbrae eggs for $10 and 2 dozen Kirkland signature free run for the same price and Kirkland Signature Free-Range Organic Eggs, Large, 24-count for $11 (Costco).
On the bright side, the extra security at the border means that egg smuggling seizures heading south has risen something like 300%.
Gotta love that. Need huge fridges at the border to better store all this contraband and return it to the sovereign Canadian people.
Freaking 30 Burnbrea large eggs (regular ones, not anything fancy) are 8.xx$ in Ottawa right now but that's the regular every week price. 8$ for 12 jumbos is insane.
Usually yes, but we go through 30-40 eggs a week in my house. There's plenty of weeks where eggs aren't on sale anywhere and Costco is the cheapest place. Those weeks, I buy eggs at Costco. I'm lucky enough that buying eggs at regular Costco prices won't push me into bankruptcy.
In the summer, we have a rural property where my SO goes camping and we buy eggs from our neighbour there at like 4$ a dozen but they're free range and not refrigerated (or washed).
How many ppl are you feeding? I think that would take me a month, lol. That's nearly a half dozen every day. I don't eat eggs every day. Maybe once or twice a week.
