Well, they're obviously normal price now, since it was all Bidens fault, and had nothing to do with poultry diseases.

[-] scarabic@lemmy.world 5 points 3 weeks ago

Trump won’t let a little poultry disease be a bother. Hell he basically ignored an entire pandemic.

I'll just note that !AskUSA is a thing. That said holy fuck eggs are expensive in America. I buy those for two bucks.

[-] BlindFrog@lemmy.world 5 points 3 weeks ago

I got a 404 error with Boost (the app) with your link. Is it this one? !AskUSA@discuss.online

[-] NoneOfUrBusiness@fedia.io 4 points 3 weeks ago

I didn't actually link it so thanks. Yeah that's the one.

This is a post right now because prices have (hopefully) temporarily spiked. My grocery store had a sign apologizing, blaming avian flu+high demand, and promising to keep their process competitive. I think 2 bucks is normal for us too but right now they're over $5.

$7.42 from Walmart, $10.65 for the ones I get (Vital Farms). This is from Colorado, USA.

[-] Nurse_Robot@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago

Can confirm these prices

[-] Akasazh@feddit.nl 8 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

Just saw it was a USA question, I'm leaving it up for some international context

In the Netherlands. A dozen of eggs from Aldi € 2.68 = $ 2.82

They can be more expensive at other shops if bio etc

[-] Treczoks@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago

Yep. About €3 from the supermarket. Or about €6 fresh from the farm shop, but they are XL and often have a double yolk.

One month ago: ~$3.29

Yesterday ~$5.49

For 18 eggs: ~$7.19

They only have grade A eggs that come in the fancy compressed paper boxes so that's what I normally get. Though eggs have been getting harder and harder to find since they've been struggling to restock them.

[-] esc27@lemmy.world 7 points 3 weeks ago

I was curious and checked while shopping today. There weren't any, just a bare shelf.

[-] gdog05@lemmy.world 7 points 3 weeks ago

$6.50/dozen for the regular eggs. Surprisingly, only $10/dozen for free range 18pack. This is in Idaho at Albertsons (not the cheapest but not a high end grocery store)

[-] Veedem@lemmy.world 6 points 3 weeks ago

As of this moment: $5.49 for 12 large brown.

Last week I was able to get $4.49 for 12 large cage free.

Bird flu is obviously influencing prices quite a bit lately.

[-] Yerbouti@sh.itjust.works 6 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

4,20 CAD so around 3 usd. EDIT: Hey the US part wasn't there when I replied! Was it?

[-] spankmonkey@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago

The US part was added at a later point in time.

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

[-] compostgoblin@slrpnk.net 5 points 3 weeks ago

$8.99 - a Safeway in the bay area

[-] Death_Equity@lemmy.world 5 points 3 weeks ago

$5.59 for a dozen extra large cage free organic in the Midwest.

[-] DrWorm@lemmy.world 5 points 3 weeks ago

I was just recently in Japan and decided to go to a proper grocery store. A dozen eggs grade A was about $1.80 USD or 278 yen.

[-] beastlykings@sh.itjust.works 4 points 3 weeks ago

Cheapest is $5 dozen here the lower West side of Michigan

[-] ipwn17@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago

Chicago, $5.15, Aldi

[-] ornery_chemist@mander.xyz 4 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

$6.49 from Giant near Philly today, and somehow still sold out. Severe inventory issues...

[-] gaspar_petersen@programming.dev 4 points 3 weeks ago

In Sjælland, Denmark: 3.7 USD if you buy nice, organic, local eggs. In Argentina, maybe 2USD. But they are not organic.

[-] Skyrmir@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago

Just bought a dozen today for $4.59

[-] Sarmyth@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago

$3.99 CA Bay Area

[-] Majorllama@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago
[-] RebekahWSD@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago

5 ish dollars for a dozen. I'm not sure exactly, a family member has employee discount.

[-] surewhynotlem@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago

[-] iamtrashman1312@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago

This is usually the cheapest one at my store. woodman's, madison, wi:

$6.29 for a dozen

[-] Consumer2747@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago

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

[-] BarbecueCowboy@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago

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.

[-] dependencyinjection@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

I know it says USA but thought would be interesting to see the prices around the world.

UK, Asda, 12 Medium Free Range Eggs costs £2.70 or $3.37.

Edit: I could find cheaper that are not “free range”.

[-] breadsmasher@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

When I first arrived in the usa from the uk, I was expecting crazy prices for eggs. It was less than 6$ for a dozen at target

[-] Shimitar@feddit.it 2 points 3 weeks ago

Here in northern Italy 10 medium eggs (free range) go for 1,99€. At a normal discount supermarket.

$8 Canadian for a dozen fully free range chicken eggs from the farmer that raises them at a farmers market.
