egg rationing line in a Southern California Costco

from Reddit:

picture of line at link below:

"Eggs were always gone by the time I got out of work in the afternoon. Haven't had a weekday off until today, so I decided to come by this morning to see what the deal was, and this is the sight I was greeted by.

Not even 30 mins into opening and the 5 dozen eggs were picked clean. The three limit applies to units, not egg quantity, so getting three 5 dozens count the same as getting 3 2 dozen units. One of the workers estimated they were gone within the first 10 minutes. People were already lines up outside prior to opening waiting for eggs.

The dairy section was well guarded, they have employees enforcing the 3 unit limit as well as controlling cart traffic. You can only enter from the far left if you want any eggs or dairy.

Can't wait for this craziness to be over, felt very much like the rationing off other goods during the covid days."

1. It's just eggs.................

2. What are people doing with that many eggs?

I only buy eggs if I have something specific I'm going to make with them, and that only usually needs 2 or 3 of them.

Who's using 60-180 eggs?

4. And your point??

9. The good thing is, most pizza crust

is made without eggs, so there's that!

The Dims first scoffed at egg prices when the Sniffer-in-Chief was still in office. Now they're creating a fake shortage to smear Trump. They're thugs.

10. I work in a grocery store

I have heard that same claim a few times.

I just look at them and say "yeah your right and the poultry farmers are in on it. They love losing money not selling their product."
Just can't fix stupid.

11. I've given up hope. You're right,

you can't fix stupid, and its becoming more the standard every month.

It very well could be that the 'stupid' headcount has been constant throughout the decades, but due to social media we're much more aware of it now.

5. They were also there to stock up for eff up times............

Remember Covid 19.

8. LOL, idiots.

It's like the masses have been programmed that they simply can't live without eggs.

My apologies to anyone who literally, for some medical reason, can't live without eggs. Or if you have a toddler that won't eat anything else. Apologies to you too.

12. Unless you're a restaurant, how many eggs do you need?

Geesh!
