I have several stores to pick from and that’s what the it is here. (Chicago area)
I grew up in Chicago area. Out of curiosity, I looked it up on the Jewel Osco website and a dozen normal eggs is 2 bucks a dozen, currently on sale for $1.79.
You are correct. Da jewel has their brand at that price, but no one ever buys those more than once. Here are the prices from jewelz about an hour ago...note the completely untouched house brand. And for anyone else, this is a mid-tier grocery store edit: pinch and zoom for fucks sake. was uploaded mobile. stopped paying adobe and i still need to put the time into learning Gimp. EDIT2: why are you downvoting can you not see or does it hurt when your lying eyes see this?
cool but I'm reading this on desktop.
Although I agree that the egg industry has shown itself to be miserable bastards, I feel like all you've demonstrated is that consumers are still being gouged for eggs in chicago.
Prices have come down a lot here, and based on replies to your comment, many other places also.
That does suck, but it also leads me to believe that some entity local to you is the source of the problem.
Jewel and Mariano’s both have the cheapest eggs at or under $2.50. I get the ones that are supposedly more humane and for $5 though.
