WOW I wish we could get those prices here($4 dozen). I was a farmer till last fall when I hung it up. Just could not compete with the cheap crap sold in the stores. People would rather pay $.79Lb for a rock hard flavor less tomato than $2.50Lb of a nice one with flavor. I could not grow stuff for the prices WalMart sells their garbage for.

I don't have any chickens or eggs but I do have a lot of used greenhouse equipment I could trade.

Sorry to hear it Ben. I've heard the same thing many times here in California.

I'm going to go out o limb and guess that a thread selling McGraw's Finger card has never before been hijacked by a discussion of the regional pricing of eggs. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Just to get this back on track, today I will flip the finger for $74 shipped.
