All the downvotes are from bakers
And I thought $6 was expensive.
$7, WA.
i buy my eggs from Janice down the street, $2/dz plus i bring her my table scraps to feed her chickens.
Like 6$
Was 3$ a month ago
About $5.50 for a dozen of the brown, non-organic ones. Kinda middle-tier. This is central texas btw.
Similar pricing in SE Michigan
Well, they're obviously normal price now, since it was all Bidens fault, and had nothing to do with poultry diseases.
strange that it only effects chickens and no other birds hmmm
Trump won’t let a little poultry disease be a bother. Hell he basically ignored an entire pandemic.
Not here, just saw them at 8.99 and limited to 2 per customer last night. Medium free range eggs were 2.99. Large eggs were $2-3 a few weeks ago.
I know you said USA, but maybe an interesting data point: €2.28 or $2.38 in Catalonia, Spain.
39kr~=$3.54 for a dozen in Sweden.
US mid-Atlantic: Pricing is elevated, but strange; some eggs that are usually higher cost now cost less than the typically lower cost eggs. For example (all for dozen large eggs):
Store brand, conventional: $6.93
Store brand, cage free: $4.95
Store brand, organic free range: $4.59
Eggland's Best (premium brand): $4.99
Texas. $7.50, but I buy the organic, pasture-raised, fair trade, small batch, artisinal eggs where the chickens are all partial owners of the egg-laying co-op. It's a chicken coop co-op.
The price has gone up significantly, like $2 or more, since last month. I don't remember what it was exactly, but I've never spent $7.50 for fucking eggs.
Regular cage-free was like $5.50. Didn't see any of the normal sad chicken eggs last time I went.
I'll just note that !AskUSA is a thing. That said holy fuck eggs are expensive in America. I buy those for two bucks.
I got a 404 error with Boost (the app) with your link. Is it this one? [email protected]
I didn't actually link it so thanks. Yeah that's the one.
It is!
This is a post right now because prices have (hopefully) temporarily spiked. My grocery store had a sign apologizing, blaming avian flu+high demand, and promising to keep their process competitive. I think 2 bucks is normal for us too but right now they're over $5.
That makes sense.
$3.99 Sprouts in CO
Edit: Also, $3.23 USD at Superstore in Calgary, AB
5 or 6 dollars, depending on where you're shopping. my parents have chickens though so I grab a dozen when I'm home sometimes.
CA, store brand large brown x12 - $8.99

It's 3.39€ for 10 (medium?) organic/free-range eggs in Germany... Or $4.26 converted to dollar a dozen (including taxes).
Around £3 in the UK. Sounds about right.
Edit:
The above is free range. Caged eggs are cheaper, £2.15 for 15 eggs in Asda.
Rewe in central Germany got free range for 2.69€.
One month ago: ~$3.29
Yesterday ~$5.49
For 18 eggs: ~$7.19
They only have grade A eggs that come in the fancy compressed paper boxes so that's what I normally get. Though eggs have been getting harder and harder to find since they've been struggling to restock them.
$7.42 from Walmart, $10.65 for the ones I get (Vital Farms). This is from Colorado, USA.
Can confirm these prices
Just saw it was a USA question, I'm leaving it up for some international context
In the Netherlands. A dozen of eggs from Aldi € 2.68 = $ 2.82
They can be more expensive at other shops if bio etc
Yep. About €3 from the supermarket. Or about €6 fresh from the farm shop, but they are XL and often have a double yolk.
Woah I thought the Euro was more. Did it drop in value compared to the dollar recently?
https://www.x-rates.com/graph/?from=USD&to=EUR&amount=1
There was a bit of an upswin for the dollar since nov 5... weirdly, not sure how that guy inspires confidence
This is usually the cheapest one at my store. woodman's, madison, wi:
Chicago, $5.15, Aldi
I was just recently in Japan and decided to go to a proper grocery store. A dozen eggs grade A was about $1.80 USD or 278 yen.
American Midwest, my small city, a dozen eggs are about $5.50 – $7
4,20 CAD so around 3 usd. EDIT: Hey the US part wasn't there when I replied! Was it?
$6.50/dozen for the regular eggs. Surprisingly, only $10/dozen for free range 18pack. This is in Idaho at Albertsons (not the cheapest but not a high end grocery store)
I was curious and checked while shopping today. There weren't any, just a bare shelf.
In Sjælland, Denmark: 3.7 USD if you buy nice, organic, local eggs. In Argentina, maybe 2USD. But they are not organic.
Seattle $5.99 in town, $4.99 outside the city, $5 farm signs by the road.
Oregon valley is 4.25 for grade A from costco and winco was 4.50. Its up about 0.50 in the last few weeks.
Good thing the orange one will fix those prices soon by doing a something at some point...
Side note, WTF is up with diesel? 30 cent increase in 2 days.
So, we've got a range.
The cheapest set of generic eggs is the Penny Smart Grade A Large Eggs for $3.99, but my local grocery also has another set of eggs that appears to be equivalent in quality from the store brand for $4.99. There's also cage free for $7.99 and another cage free that looks to be identical from the same brand for $8.69. Generic organic (cage/etc not listed) in the plastic container is $6.99.
Western Nebraska, basically Wyoming: non organic are in the range of five bucks at the grocery store. Organic is anywhere from 6 to 8. I get locally-raise ones for 3.50 a dozen at my mechanic's shop :) Just have to pay cash.
This economy is stupid.

Between 4.67 (cheapo plain large white) and 10.02 (Golden D Large Hyperorganic) for a dozen near Vancouver.
Costco's free range 24 pack is 12.49 which I think is probably what most people are getting.
Also, all prices are CAD.

$5.75 - SW Michigan
I know it says USA but thought would be interesting to see the prices around the world.
UK, Asda, 12 Medium Free Range Eggs costs £2.70 or $3.37.
Edit: I could find cheaper that are not “free range”.
$1000

Aldi (usually the cheapest near me) SoCal Saturday January 25, 2025

Just paid 3.99 at Aldi in Philadelphia. Limit 2
Holy fuck, that's about 3x what free range eggs cost in Vancouver.
$6.49 from Giant near Philly today, and somehow still sold out. Severe inventory issues...
When I first arrived in the usa from the uk, I was expecting crazy prices for eggs. It was less than 6$ for a dozen at target
It may have a large part to do with where in the UK you were coming from, and where in the US you wound up, in fairness. Bog-standard eggs are $8/dozen just outside a major metro on the East Coast, while less than half that for posters in other regions. Last week, I was in Manchester, and a 15-pack of eggs at the Lidl on Piccadily Gardens was about £3 or so, which would probably make $8/dozen seem pretty crazy in comparison. I think the lowest I saw while there, further from the city center, was £2.15 for 15 eggs.
Cheapest is $5 dozen here the lower West side of Michigan
Here in northern Italy 10 medium eggs (free range) go for 1,99€. At a normal discount supermarket.
Depending on the type, my grocery store is anywhere from $5-9 per dozen. Baking is getting expensive yo!

About $3.99 from trader joes last time I bought. North Seattle.
Also in N Seattle, also got some TJ’s eggs for $3.99 today! Hi neighbor!
Cheapest I found just now. Just under $5. Pennsylvania.
Denver suburb, $7.99 per 18 A-large
I need to replace 4 chickens this spring, I expect more people buying them this year. Anyone who is allowed to keep chickens should consider it, IMO. Stupid easy to care for and if they get to run around and eat bugs the eggs are far superior.
E: 36hrs later they were $11 for the 18 eggs
Sorry, PA. Philly suburbs.
Still not enough that I'm willing to get chickens. And probably still not as much as the real cost including currently externalized pollution costs. About $8 for the good ones. Around $5 for the factory farmed ones, but they are often sold out, the supply right now isn't meeting the demand.

I don’t know, I just grab them and put them in my cart when I go to the grocery store. I’m going to buy them no matter what they cost, so why bother worrying about it? Holy shit it’s like 75% of the country has gone insane.
It's one carton of milk Michael, what could it cost? $20?
Im going to check on prices no matter what my salary is. If i feel scammed i wont buy. Period.
No idea; I rarely buy them.
Thanks for letting us know.
I just don't understand why so many people in this country are so obsessed with eggs.
