“Dyeing” to find the lowest price on eggs? We went on an Easter egg hunt a few days early to find the best price on eggs. Unfortunately, this year, there weren’t any major deals as in years past. In any case, we’re now a “basket case”, after personally visiting several grocery chains in one day.
Our Easter Bunny is very frugal, so he didn’t check prices on organic eggs because they’re always very expensive. (He nearly choked on some jelly beans, when he saw some of the prices!) However, we noticed Sprouts Farmers Market sells cage-free eggs for $2.99 (18-ct., large, Grade A.)
We hopped around town and the best bargain we found was at Trader Joe’s — a dozen eggs for $1.29. What an eggs-ceptional price!
Actually, we did not see any sale prices at any store, all regular price — surprising because it’s the season for eggs to shine brightly!
If Trader Joe’s is not convenient for you, here are other options…
All of the prices listed are for a dozen store or basic brand eggs (large, Grade A or Grade AA.) Prices may vary by location. As bargain hunters know, it’s really not worth the gas and time to save so little money — unless you’re buying in bulk — as most of these prices are comparable to Trader Joe’s.
King Soopers — $1.39
Natural Grocers – $1.99 (free-range, price only for {N}power members)
Safeway — $1.59
Sav-A-Lot — $1.55
Sprouts Farmers Market — $1.99 (cage-free)
Target — $1.59
Walgreens — $2.29
Walmart — $1.58
Whole Foods Market — $2.99
Happy Easter!
