Yeah, these are specialty farm eggs, cage free, and brown. They’re also stacked in with the organic eggs. They probably command a markup without the price increases from bird flu. This is also *probably* some trendier grocery store OP is shopping at.
Our “fancy” grocery store has a dozen cage free large brown eggs for $5.49, so either this is a local issue in Denver or OP is posting some BS engagement bait.
Just snapped this pic from our store’s online shopping app.
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.
