79%?
try 300+%....................🤷♂️
Two years ago, eggs were about 6-cents each or $0.75 per dozen.
Now, eggs are just under 43-cents each or $5.12 per dozen [Walmart].
That is a MASSIVE increase.
I noticed similar yesterday a local grocery for their store brand coffee. A year ago I would get a 34-oz can for just under $8. In the summer the can shrank to 24-oz and the price increase a few cents. Yesterday the price for the 24-oz can had increased to just under $10.
That is an increase of roughly 23-cents per ounce for the 34-oz can, to 33-cents for the 24-oz can, to 42-cents for the 24-oz can now.
These kinds of price increases are no
small matter out here in fly-over country.
