Eggs, large for same price as medium.
Options
Bought eggs in Lidl a few days ago. 10 large eggs were 79p (7.9p each). However, their pack of 15 medium eggs have a shelf -price £1.19 ( also 7.9p each). So now I can enjoy the luxury of a large boiled egg for breakfast knowing that it's the same price as a medium.

I have seen people in supermarkets opening a box of large eggs and mixed size. Swapped the smaller eggs in the latter to the large eggs. Then place the mixed size box into their trolley. This sly tactic saves them around 35-45p per half dozenThis is a system account and does not represent a real person. To contact the Forum Team email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0

Shouldn't they be egged?

My eggs always seems to be quite variable in size - maybe this is what's happened to them?!
I suppose I shouldn't put them all in one basket though...0 -
Buy off me and you get all sizes for 1.20 for 6
That's all sizes from large to triple yolkers , none more then 48 hrs old from free ranged chickens. Can't keep up with demand0
