Even with flock depopulation elsewhere in the country, egg prices have actually gone down here. Mom clued me in because they went down at the Safeway by her.

$9.29 for 5 dozen large eggs at Costco. I needed cream and eggs are right there

today a blurb in the news about lumber prices collapsing (due to lower demand from construction)...

what goes up can come down.

that said i have no idea if the prices are close to where it was before the pandemic or not.

the last time i had to get any lumber i wasn't impressed at all by the quality (nothing was straight).

Lots of knot and bark edges as well. I only needed new 2x2s for run roosts so it didn't matter but yes the quality was bad

Futures look down about a third from the COVID throes.
