Seattle egg prices are insane – built a tracker to help us all save money
Just paid $10+ for a dozen eggs and decided enough is enough. Built a simple website that tracks and compares egg prices across stores.
Currently monitoring 39 products at Safeway (Capitol Hill), from $5.14/dozen (Lucerne Cage Free) to $10.66/dozen (Vital Farms Organic). That’s a 2X difference for essentially the same nutrition!
Working on adding more stores based on community feedback – Trader Joe’s seems to be the winner so far.
Interesting finding: 6-packs are often MORE expensive per egg than 18-packs. And buying 60-count boxes can get you down to $5.34/dozen.
What stores should I prioritize adding next? QFC? Target? Somewhere else?
This is a weekend project/MVP but the response has been overwhelming – clearly we all need this!
