I was just up at the supermarket i couldn't believe this, A couple changing the large eggs out of the large egg carton into the small egg carton and vice versa and then taking the small eggs carton [full of large eggs] to the checkout because the small eggs are cheaper,

By about 5c.

I bet that was so they had enough money to by a pack of smokes each and some Jim Beam

Might only be 5c but it is the principle of the thing. Why should they pay 5c more than they have to??

lol. that is hillarious. I have to admit I was trying to decide on eggs the other day and was wondering if any one did that. LOL

The only part which annoys me if I was the next person to come along and get the cheapo eggs and pay more for it.

For the bigger eggs? that would be why they're 5c dearer

Well.....


I hope they did check the prices.....



Around here the biggest eggs are the cheapest also.



So they may very well have changed the eggs into boxs to infact pay more money for the eggs.



Serve them right. Pathetic theives.

A bit Off topic,

The organic free range ones are about $3 more a dozen. The other day someone was jumping up and down with glee at the checkout after paying $1.99 for 12 cage eggs, but seeing the atrocious conditions the chooks live in, i'd gladly pay more to support free range healthy chicken/ egg production. If only more people realised where some of the eggs / chooks come from, if they could see it first hand they'd soon change their minds.
My eldest daughter wants to become a 'battery hen liberator' when she leaves school!
I just buy the free range ones and eat less of them, keeps the costs down
