I stocked up on Cadbury eggs after Easter, so I’m all set.
Ocala Florida Walmart shoes 18 pack carton of large eggs at $5.87. I remember not long ago (4 years) the cost was 56 cents....
I’ve been getting farm fresh eggs since last Spring along with my neighbor. She met the farmer’s wife at the market a year ago, and so now we both get our eggs from this nice family.
Since their eggs are so much better and fresher than what I can get at the grocery store, we have offered to pay the same as the store’s price. They are thrilled because they lost some customers when they had to raise their prices.
So starting in December we are going to pay $6/dozen. We hope that will help them make ends meet. I love having fresh eggs like this. The quality is far superior, and I like being able to help a small family business stay on its feet.
Remember when the Bidenistas bragged that the July 4th BBQ was $0.16 cheaper if you substitute hotdogs for steaks. Something ridiculous like that.
imo, too!
EVERYTHING that makes the Economy run revolves around the price of fuel.
But, try telling THAT to a Socialist Democrat. *Rolleyes*
He nailed it!
This is one I love. ‘Sh*t Weekend Farmers Say.’

That’s the way to go, IMHO. Eat as locally as you can. :)
Here in CA I pay $6.50 for a carton of eggs.
That’s depressing!
Hang on for another 60 days or so. ;)
Bahahahahaha
That lady has never tried to drench a calf.
Or pulled a nail out of a cow hoof.
Love my ladies but easy they are not. :)
That bit still cracks me up a decade later!
Yeah, I want a dairy cow in the worst way. Beau keeps telling me that I DON’T. So far, he won’t budge on it. And I’m starting to come around. ;)
In reality, if I needed raw milk for anything, I can just ask my neighbor. We have a nice set up in our ‘hood’ with very sharing and caring family farms. When CovidBS-19 was ‘all the rage’ the dairy was told to dump 20% of their milk because it wasn’t needed for schools, so we all had all the ‘free’ milk we needed, plus they found some other outlets for it. It didn’t go to waste. I learned how to make butter that year, too! I reciprocated with an abundance of peaches the next season, and Beau knocked 20% off their crop land rent for the 2 years of the BS we all had to endure.
Man, I DESPISE Mother Government! Ugh! Just leave us ALONE, would ya? Please?
I know this thread is winding down, but if you still want to do your ‘Holiday Cookie Baking’ it CAN be done - without the eggs:
