That's $3 for 15 eggs. Sadly not free-range, only cage-free.

Not sure if this is the best community for this post, does anyone have a better suggestion?

I’m almost 46, and I never remember a dozen or more eggs being that cheap.

I’m about the same age and I distinctly remember $1.99/doz was standard for a while.

Where are you getting that price from? OP says 35sk/15 is about $3/15.
