Still $3.49/dozen at Trader Joe's this week.

They never have them when I have been the last few weeks. Very limited supplies, and they sell out early in the day.

Only eggs Whole Foods has are quail eggs.

Our supermarkets have lots of eggs. About $5/dozen.

Yes, but you live in Pennsylvania.  They probably fell off a truck.

Idk the eggs available to me are shockingly reasonably priced.

We buy farm eggs from neighbours. 6.00 CDN/dozen. No shortage,

In small tiendas eggs are sold loose and by weight.  Though we see more cardboard cartons in the supermercados. 

 

I priced dozen-sized cartons today and the average was 40 pesos (under 2 bucks USD).  Saw some as low as 34p and some as high as 50p (in more modern hard plastic cartons).

Some good news on this front: the USDA has granted provisional approval to a vaccine to inoculate poultry against the avian flu.

I stopped at Walmart in Tucson this week.  Eggs were plentiful; dozen large were $4.97.

I paid $14 today for a dozen free range eggs from a local farm.

Wow. California prices, I guess. Similar ones I get here just went up to $10 from $8, and that's only to cover the increased cost of feed, etc. Others are less expensive. Supermarket eggs, even "organic," are still $4-5. OTOH, I'm getting some "backyard" eggs today: two dozen for $5.
