Eggs are 10.99 in denver.

I live outside a major metropolitan city for context in what many would view as an “expensive State.” CoL is not cheap.

That said, your second choice of “regional” is far more apropos than “anecdotal.”

Well that fucking sucks

Ate at 2 in Japan and loved it, asked for whipped cream on my pancakes and the dude very seriously emptied an entire can while staring at me. I tried to stop him, he did not listen

They will have security tags in them soon

[phantom_engineer@lemmy.ml]

The latter. Nobody ever posts the store brand eggs and talks price about those.

If you try to get elected by blaming something on the currently elected official and say that you will fix that, be 100% prepared to take the blame if that thing gets worse even if it was something you had no control in whatsoever, because you stood up and took responsibility for it.

If you don't want to be blamed for saying stupid things, stop saying stupid things.

$11.99 per dozen for regular eggs at a CA Trader Joe’s.

Clown.

[greyeyedghost@lemmy.ca]

More like $4.

I still buy those eggs, the notes they put in are cute.

[elephantium@lemmy.world]

Your post prompted me to check -- at the "fancy" grocery store in town, I can get a dozen eggs for about $5. Same price at Aldi. Looking at Target, it's about $4.20.

Wait, what? I usually expect Target to be more expensive than other options in the area! Strange times.

[elephantium@lemmy.world]

How much can it cost, Michael?

[damnedfurry@lemmy.world]

You're lying.

Did you think nobody was going to check? lol

[damnedfurry@lemmy.world]

Aldi has cruelty guaranteed eggs

Uh...

As someone who grew up in the Denver area, here is some additional context. King Soopers is the grocery store that most people go to(Kroger owned). The Kroger brand eggs are the cheapest they offer and in the city they are $7.89 a dozen. In the suburbs $7.39. Downtown supermarkets are always a little more expensive. There are eggs priced at $10.99 and higher but the cheapest ones are still getting really expensive. And that's if they aren't sold out due to the shortage.

I regret not making friends with the neighbors who owned chickens. They're sitting on bird gold.

Generally, the staff and vibes are cool. I met some great people working there. They like to put up that front that they're trying to be cool and edgy. I was a cook for a long time at that point and flipping eggs isn't exactly hard or special, but they made it this big ordeal, which is fine but you can't look me in the face and tell me that what we're doing here is a culinary feat.

With me, I worked at their GCM location in L.A. and they were opening up a new spot in Glendale. They asked me to help open up the store under the stupilation that if I worked for so long and did 'X' things, I would get a promotion. When it came time for the raise and I had completed what they asked of me, I was constantly told it would happen, but they would give me the run around. Until finally someone else in the store was eligible as well, so instead of just giving us both the position they made us do a 'cook off' and when me and the other persons food came back exactly alike and they couldn't discriminate the begrudgingly gave me a portion of what they promised.

I cooked for them well, did what they asked of me, and came in on time so they couldn't fire me unless they wanted to pay me unemployment or maybe have me file a fucking lawsuit for unlawful termination. I just didn't play ball with their bullshit and didn't let them walk over me because they left such a bad taste in my mouth with my inital (verbal) offer being essentially reneged upon and they didn't like that at all. So they just made my job hell until I left. L.A. was hands down the worst place to cook. I'm sure there are a lot of opportunities there for people, but man if you aren't taken advantage of at every turn...

Oh, also. When L.A. raised their minimum wage, the store in Glendale didn't get the raise because it wasn't in L.A. and the whole store went on strike because of it. Don't know what happened with it. I just heard it second hand from an old coworker.

These fuckers are opening places all over THE WORLD and they nickle and dime their employees and generally treat them like shit. Fuck Jaime, and all of the owners (they were nice in person but they pulled the strings to make our lives hell).

Cage free eggs are already some of the most expensive eggs anyway.

[aaa@feddit.org]

Phew, are you OK over there? For comparison in Germany it's 2€ for 10 eggs, or 2,40€ for cage free. Eggs from the farmer start at 3,50€. In my area anyway.

[wisely@feddit.org]

Looks like I need to fly out to Denver to save some money on eggs.

[stiephelando@discuss.tchncs.de]

They're fighting the bird flu

[polyllamarous@lemmy.world]

Eggs are now 33$ in Denver guys!!

Na... Just kidding... We don't do click bait here. And eggs aren't really 10$ a dozen most anywhere.
