How are they that much? I pay $1.49 for 18 eggs at Kroger

Those must be really low quality eggs? The Costco ones are not quite the bottom tier.
Eggs can be hyperlocal - we were as low as $.25 a dozen just a few years ago, now we hit about $2 a dozen. The eggs from further away are more - the latest price increases have made the "grown local by cage free hens" eggs competitive again.
Eggs at my Costco were $8-9 for 60 large a couple weeks ago.
