I rode my bicycle to the University's meat and egg salesroom again today. $6 for 30 eggs that live less than a mile from my house.

They don't take #cash or #bitcoin, but other than that they're pretty cool. Plus that price is hard to beat for any eggs, let alone for the good stuff.

wow. where im at $6 barely gets a dozen eggs

Yup, we were paying $5/dozen from the grocery store while they were shut down. It turns out, universities don't have any students to work the salesroom durring summer break. This time we will stock up before that happens. Our household eats fewer than a dozen eggs per week on average, and they last a long time.

After getting eggs, I rode directly over to the food coop. They support #local #farmers, and just to give you an idea of how cool they are beyond just doing that, here's a picture of their store from summer of 2020:

I'm proud to shop at a store like this who has the courage to use their right to #FreeSpeech like this. And if you're going to mute me for saying this... you know what, I'm cool with that.

That is one heck of a deal!

How do you get the eggs home without breaking them? Do you use a bicycle trailor?

I've wanted to do my grocery shopping on a bike ever since reading this, but have only done it for a few things here and there.

I just pit them in cartons and jam 'em in my backpack. Always been fine so far, even this time when I also had 25lbs of bulk goods in random sized containers mixed in. Gotta admit, I was a little nervous this time around.

Wow. That's impressive. 🫡
