An awful lot of stores are closing here. Five restaurants have closed. Restaurants here are charging surcharges for eggs if you want them with your breakfast. An extra dollar per egg.
I think for that price I would tell them no eggs. Of course right now I am not buying any eggs for my household.
It is 41F here so no walk around the river today.

My sister cannot stop buying eggs. I keep telling her lets buy a chicken, but she like dogs and have to feed them. I am like probably cheaper than buying eggs.
She used to get 5 dozen at a time, now we down to a single carton of 12 at 10 dollars a pop.
Things will close this is why corrupt inflation sucks. It usually the people who do it honest too.

@jstory07 It makes me cry too. I want to smash this world but people keep saying best way to go? How do they see that?

We don't have any recent closed stores here, but one I used to like has been closed for 3 or 4 years and nothing has been put in its place. Sigh! It was like the cornerstone of that plaza. However, now they have Dollar Tree in that same plaza, and of the two I prefer DT. Eggs, cheapest price I saw was 7.79 for 18. I don't need eggs, but if I have to get some I will buy those. 18 would last me weeks.

It's happened around here too . . . there are many empty retail spots that have actually been empty for a long while now. I can understand how restaurants have to charge accordingly - but it's enough to make us not want to eat out as much. If you happen to have a Trader Joe's in your area, they seem to have the best price on eggs still. But you have to go when they open - the supply apparently lasts for about an hour.

Are they closed permanently or because of supply chain problems and hope to reopen once rump makes eggs cheap again?
What does Leon Muskrat have to say about it?

@jstory07 That's too bad. Is there another grocery store easily accessible to you?

The price of eggs is up that is for sure but we use a lot of them.

@jstory07 Those are the best eggs, usually the yokes are much darker and they taste so fresh.

I enjoyed shopping at Albertson’s when I lived in Tampa.

Eggs are ridiculous. We have about a dozen left from our Costco run three weeks ago and not buying more for awhile. It's bad here in WA like it is in OR. I'm driving to OR next month for doctor visits and just go "home" for a few days. My oldest is still in Albany and said prices are higher than my last trip.

@jstory07 I don't either. We are trying to make a lot of our own fresh produce and drive less. I am not pulling my trailer to OR this time and will stay at a hotel. Still cheaper than pulling the RV eating more gas. My trips are less and less.

I am still getting my eggs from my friend that I barter with. Once in a great while I have had to buy some, but it's been several years. I still check the prices of eggs when I am at the stores. Daughter said yesterday that Walmart's eggs Friday morning were $6.19 a dozen for the cheapest ones. A sealed pack of 2 cartons of 18 eggs, total 36 eggs, was $18.99, and the big box of eggs holding 60 eggs,/5 dozen total, was $27.99 She has been checking the prices there when she and her husband go shopping. Like everyone else, they are on a quest to save where they can.

Eggs are so expensive right now. I gave up buying them for the rest of this month at the very least.

@lilacskies She is grateful that I have taken her grandsons places and have did art projects with them. So she said no charge.

@jstory07 Wow, that is a good deal! Way to go! Your cousin is so generous. My cousins would make me pay for every single egg. Lol!
