I guess died potatoes for Easter this year?
Good question.
Dollar tree and .99 cent store have rationalized pricing on so many items, that it’s just more convenient to shop at Walmart.
SE Wisconsin: jumbo eggs dropped from a peak of $8.99 a doz back down to a reasonable $2.45 a doz
That is good, nothing makes my teeth itch more than the thought of poor people being able to purchase anything other than junk food
Remember the Five and Dime?
Reminds me of the first part of the 1983 miniseries, “V,” where shortages kicked in where one of the characters, Elias, wad selling eggs on the black market. He said, “a dozen clucks for six bucks “
Let me add, if you can, get your own ducks or chickens for eggs, my cousin did that.
I keep hearing about how expensive eggs are.....my wife is still finding a dozen for somewhere around $3.50......I guess price varies by where you are.
Egg prices are back to “normal,” after you factor in the long-running double-digit inflation of food products.
There’s something so ironic about wealthy lefties shopping at a dollar store.
“Dollar tree and .99 cent store have rationalized pricing on so many items, that it’s just more convenient to shop at Walmart.”
Dollar Tree still has everything the same price. But now it is $1.25 per item. I was in there yesterday and bought a few three outlet power strips. That look the same as these 4 outlet ones from Walmart

And 4 pairs of thin synthetic socks. That I need for my sneakers that are a tiny bit tight. $1.25 for two pairs.
“SE Wisconsin: jumbo eggs dropped from a peak of $8.99 a doz back down to a reasonable $2.45 a doz”
Large brown cage-free at Wally World for $2.89 dozen.
They do?
Good one. Have you been eavesdropping on Bill Gates and Warren Buffett?
Another company made the mistake of putting their price in their company name. If they wanted to change now, hotel "Motel 60" just does does not have the same panache.
Note to entrepreneurs: do NOT put your price in your company name.

SS Kresge for one
I prefer mine “dyed.”
