We've literally seen name brand eggs here in the southeast USA going for $11.99 for a dozen, literally a dollar each!
That's where my meme started, I had $1 wrote on the eggs three times around, but later I decided to add some zeroes so they would have $1, $10, and $100 written around them, depending on which way they're turned in the package.
We ain't paying near that much for cheaper non name brand eggs, last we got was $6.87 for 18 eggs, a dozen and a half. Much better deal, but still quite a bit higher than it used to be.

Thats rough
Time to establish self sufficiency
Sadly, we can't have chickens at our apartment, but maybe I can train our dog to lay eggs..
