4.50 USD from the walmart near me checking online, I don't buy eggs so idk if that is out of the ordinary.
Aldi used to have a dozen for .99
It wasn’t long ago that Aldi had a dozen eggs for 46¢ in my area
4 cents an egg is wild. For 10 years I've been used to a dozen cage-free eggs costing around 20 cents an egg.
46 cents a dozen, that's like being able to get all your daily calories from eggs for $1.20, equivalent to 10 minutes of the federal minimum wage. Literally less expensive than the time it takes to buy them or the gas it takes to get to the store. Extremely rational and beneficial and wholesome industry.
It costs 1.99 euros and 3.39 euros for animal-friendly for a carton of 10 eggs
