What Are The Prices Right Now For Eggs in Rochester, Minnesota?
My family is pretty typical and we tend to go through eggs quite a bit.

As of Thursday, April 4th, the following are the prices for eggs on the websites of the these grocery stores in Rochester, Minnesota.

I'll be keeping an eye on these prices and will report any huge changes on my Facebook page - Jessica On The Radio. And if you notice any huge hikes, please send me a message. I don't go to the store every day so I may miss it.
