Wonder how long this has to keep up for more products to start becoming accidentally vegan due to having to avoid eggs as they’re too volatile.
As long as MAGA doesn’t blame Trump or the corporations directly then those corporations will continue to raise prices because higher profits are in their best interest.
It’s a dozen eggs, Michael. How much could it cost, $10?
Come on, it’s only 92 cents apiece. It was $6.99 for two dozen under Biden. Do the math folks.
Bird flu sucks. Too bad the CDC can’t warn us about it though.
£3.15($3.90) at Tesco in the UK btw
Let’s Go Trump!
In hawaii we cant get eggs at all for the past week or two-- or even those milk carton pints of liquid eggs. I was told at the foodland today to come at 5am tomorrow when the doors open and theres always just a few boxes. So… I guess I get up at 430 tomorrow. Then elbow the old ladies – or whatever I need to do to get to the eggs first.
They are mean and have canes but they can’t take a punch and I can run to the egg aisle first.
Anecdote: My Trumpster in-laws could not stop yacking about “Biden’s high eggs prices” just last month. Haven’t heard a peep about the price of eggs since Trump came back. Now it’s just “God’s will.”
Nows your chance to return the favour. Complain to her about how expensive eggs are now under Trump.
Nu-uh Fox and friends said it was DEI and wokeness causing eggs prices to soar.
I know it is fun to think about getting back at these people but it doesn’t really work. They were never rational to begin with.
Thanks, Obama!
So, I guess no… Denver omelet? Sorry I’ll leave.
Conservatives: Thanks Obama!
Your welcome!
I usually pass this over but for a novelty account you might want to spell it right. “You’re welcome!”
Butt that wood bee to easy!
I can’t believe buying chickens actually saved me money, I just did it because I wanted chickens. I expected to pay more per egg (considering food and litter) because I don’t have economies of scale like the large producers do.
Wouldn’t it be great if this was the impetus for people going back to raising animals and growing some of their food for themselves? Almost everyone has room for a garden, even if it’s just a window sill for some fresh herbs. And raising even some of your own food can save you a ton of money.
Or you can take advantage of the rising egg prices to sell them for $9.99/dozen to your neighbors, whatever. Be the neighborhood eggpin. Lead your own fowl empire to dominance over the local Whole Foods.
Then you will need to hire armed security guards to keep folks from stealing your eggs.
It is getting popular to do stuff like that. Most people I know have at least one or two half dead herb plants on their windowsill.
My gf is getting us chickens this year.
I do this, but I swear I spend so much on potting soil, and containers (though now that I have enough that cost is taken care of) that I’m not sure it’s saving me anything. I’d love to plant into the ground but I’ve got hard soil so I’d have to rent a tiller and amend the soil for ages, which is also an additional cost. Still planning on planting tons of potatoes, various tomatoes, and an herb garden this spring. It’s an enjoyable hobby, but it is just that; a hobby. Those tend to be expensive, at least the ones I choose.
I spend so much on potting soil
you’d think it would be dirt cheap
I spent approximately $500 on a raised bed and grew like, idk, less than 20 cherry tomatoes. (I wasn’t doing it for money, but still.)
Why not start with what you got and improve the quality over time as you can, rather than hope for maximum efficiency setup from scratch. Like maybe rent the tiller and just see what grows with the soil as is? Then compost and fertilize.
Like change the parameters of the game. See how much you can do with as little money as possible. It might be less time efficient, but more cash efficient, if that’s what you care about.
Remember it’s YOUR, hobby, you make the rules of the game, then play it.
They’re cage free/organic. Those are always more expensive.
