I remember my Grandma saying the ONLY time she ever spanked my Dad was when he was a toddler and threw a number of precious eggs (this was during the Depression) under their icebox.
Bought eggs each of the last two weeks at Aldi in Florida.
First week they were $3.54
This last week they were $3.85.
No where near $5.70. They could be that at Publix or one of the boutique shops, I suppose.
