I am in NJ and shelves are not empty here but the prices are off the charts. In December I bought eggs in Stop and Shop for $3.19 for a dozen of large brown eggs. Yesterday I bought the same eggs for $9.75 each.

Y'all are getting hosed. The Whole Foods ones around here (upstate NY) are $4.19/dozen as of today.
Checks out:

Store: Rochester NY and Buffalo NY -> 365 by Whole Foods Market, Large Brown Grade A Eggs, 12 Count, 24 oz, $4.19

Notably, if I put in Downtown LA as the store location, I actually get even cheaper eggs offered. Not sure where this market's getting their prices from:

Store: Downtown Los Angeles, 788 S Grand Ave, Los Angeles, CA -> 365 by Whole Foods Market, Grade A Eggs Cage-Free Plus Large Brown (12 Count), 24 oz, $3.79

Using: Whole Foods - Eggs [1] with a local store selected

Yeah, maybe I'll check local Whole Foods in a few days too. This is literally nuts: https://stopandshop.com/product/egglands-best-cage-free-larg...
