“Surcharges”
Is that a the grocer version of “dealer premiums” from when car dealers legally price gouged during the covid parts supply shortages?
It’s gonna be like the USSR except instead of bread shops running out of bread you’re just not going to be able to afford it because the grocer jacked up the price to $30/loaf.

$4.95 for one egg is ridiculous. I won’t pay more than $4.50 an egg. 😤
Mitchell and Webb situation - Chicken farmer
"You see that? It's made of chicken. It's actually made of chicken. You kill it; you got free chicken, you can sell it to people. Or... don't kill it, and fucking eggs come out of their arses! Fucking hell!"
They just got the one hole for everything so the eggs coming out of their ass is as accurate as saying they kinda pee them out.
Yeah I don't think the joke would be improved by having Mitchell's character be accurate about the chickens anatomy. In fact, I think it might ruin it a bit if he wasn't as excitedly silly and incredulous.
But yes I take your point about what terms we use to refer to cloakas.
Poor Canada, egg prices are the same. /s
My close save on (company from graphic) seems to have trouble keeping eggs in stock, plus it's like $8-9 for free range which I usually try to buy. Their quality (used to be quite orange now more dull, not as yellow as most eggs still) has gone down I hope the chickens are treated better.
Last years data on egg prices globally. Sorry I could not find this year.
Link = Eggs - prices by country, around the world, December 2024
Amusingly, the pasture raised eggs are now the same price as the regular eggs at Aldi.
I have a coworker who keeps about 250 chickens at her house and sells the brown eggs for $5 a dozen. Meanwhile, a dozen white eggs at Shop-Rite are $10.

It’s been 3 weeks since I last saw eggs in my small town grocery store.
