In hawaii we cant get eggs at all for the past week or two-- or even those milk carton pints of liquid eggs. I was told at the foodland today to come at 5am tomorrow when the doors open and theres always just a few boxes. So.. I guess I get up at 430 tomorrow. Then elbow the old ladies -- or whatever I need to do to get to the eggs first.

They are mean and have canes but they can't take a punch and I can run to the egg aisle first.

Just grab one of the chicken's running around on the island and jam it in a cage. Free eggs

This sounds like the stories my grandma told me about the GDR. They also had to get up early to get basic necessities, otherwise they were gone.

I see lots of chickens, never any eggs.

You have to search in the bushes for the eggs. Haven't you been Easter egg hunting? This year everyone will be pushing the kids down to get to the eggs first though.

Or somehow corral some of the wild chickens that are running rampant on the islands
