It's $5.59 a dozen in rural South Central Texas, at our local HEB Grocery Store (think Jewel).

I started raising my own ducks and chickens for over 3 years now. Best eggs too.

Still can't believe people voted for rising egg cost and wake up Americans.

TRUMP INFLATION

jonesy2653.bsky.social•90 days ago

It’s over $7.00 where I live

mollyr0se.bsky.social•90 days ago

My area too. The bakery prices high too. Bet a dozen donuts are expensive.

jonesy2653.bsky.social•90 days ago

Crazy. Anything related to eggs are very high.

mollyr0se.bsky.social•90 days ago

Bet wedding cakes will triple in price. Hopefully by the summer eggs and other groceries will come down.

jonesy2653.bsky.social•90 days ago

I’m pessimistic. From what I’ve read prices are not expected to drop at all this year. The bird flu is out of control.

poofer.bsky.social•90 days ago

Ha that's lower than where we are at I see them anywhere from 6.79 to 7.15 a dozen and they are starting to take down the price's because people are not buying them 😂 so it the old hide your price because no looks when their being cashed out 😂😂😂

I suppose the poor can always eat cake

jhuber28.bsky.social•90 days ago

Thought the egg prices were going to be fixed on Day 1?

eggsmilkandbread.bsky.social•89 days ago

Egg prices aren’t just near $5 a dozen...our in-person purchasing shows $5.94 in February 2025, up 61% since November 2024. A ‘moderate’ increase still hurts when it’s on top of months of rising costs. Track the trends: https://eggsmilkandbread.com #GroceryPrices #EggPrices #CostOfLiving

Looks like Trump has laid another egg

$5 a dozen doesn't sound right. The whole market price is over $7. What am I missing here?

mollyr0se.bsky.social•90 days ago

Prices from five to twelve dollars. Eggs was one of the cheapest grocery you used to purchase. I remember for less than a dollar. Some stores limit how many you can purchase. Bakery goods will be sky high.

321549real.bsky.social•90 days ago

I pay a little more than $10 for 18-XL's here on the Rez.

igotarock2.bsky.social•90 days ago

To be fair, Donald has been very busy babysitting for Elonia.

peachysmom.bsky.social•90 days ago

Are we great yet?

jpmaclat0.bsky.social•90 days ago

I live in Ecuador where you can get 30 eggs for $3.50

mollyr0se.bsky.social•90 days ago

Whoa!!

jpmaclat0.bsky.social•90 days ago

Which post are you commenting on? I can’t tell?

annahayley.bsky.social•89 days ago

Where are they $5 a dozen? Everywhere I go, they are $8 or $12.

daven6559.bsky.social•89 days ago

America last. Vote Democrat

nebulaowner.bsky.social•90 days ago

Even higher here in Wyoming

Something new the rich can hoard for profit.

gottheglow.bsky.social•90 days ago

Trumpflation!

vardm-65.bsky.social•90 days ago

Trump cannot help that there's an avian flu outbreak, any more than Biden could. So, when people blame the price of eggs on either President, they're obviously lying. What a President can do is appoint people in health and food safety who won't make it worse. There, Trump failed.

gsulli6873.bsky.social•90 days ago

Great insight. Thanks.

seanevans-66.bsky.social•90 days ago

To be fair however, it was Trump who campaigned on cutting prices of groceries, insurance, gasoline and energy- some up to 50% “on day one”. He can be held for his egregious lies.

vardm-65.bsky.social•90 days ago

No doubt, but everyone knew he was lying, even if they won't admit it. He's never been held accountable for any lie he's told, no reason to expect it to change.

mollyr0se.bsky.social•90 days ago

He was supposed to stop the war in Ukraine day one of his administration.

comprichard.nafofellas.com•88 days ago

Tell the truth.
All the maga claimed eggs would be 99 cents on January 20th after he took office.
So dont backtrack that stuff now.
And dont forget the 99 cents a gallon for gas yall promised

midblink.bsky.social•90 days ago

Trump did that

thelowestwhiteman.bsky.social•90 days ago

Ya but we got the Gulf of America back so..

Priorities, man.
