    I'm surprised they're that expensive there. Still about 5.60 /12 here. Figured WA and CA would face the same troubles.

    I'm hoarding my half dozen expired eggs right now, just do the egg-in-a-bowl-of-water test on each one first....I've gotten food poisoning from a bad egg before, never again

    You would be winning the lottery to even find them on the shelves right now around here which is part of the problem, like what @CS_AR said I think the price is being driven up even higher locally due to perceived demand... people buying them up in bulk for fear of not finding them again.

    Good thing I only eat a dozen eggs a year. Hopefully most of the hoarders get sick from spoiled eggs.

    Ah okay that makes sense. I don't buy eggs anyway, just heard the hullabaloo and checked prices when I was at the store yesterday and was confused when they were fairly normal. If I have eggs I get them from my friends farm, free eggs are best eggs.

    Yeah they're spendy machines. I like the idea of them more than I like the actual truck haha. 23 GXs here, even low milers, in the teens, are still in the 50s.

    Same, I rarely ever make breakfast at home besides maybe a bowl of cereal or a bagel or something. But my wife likes to bake and eggs are necessary for most baking

    I don't wanna hear about those vegan egg substitutes

    Tons everywhere at our stores, at what 5.99 a pack? We just got more a few days ago cause Theo loves them.

    Thinking maybe the fires that hit you guys may have more to do with supplies?

    I have used most 3d modeling software.

    Fusion just happens to be the only one I pay for, for personal use.

    maybe, I think it's also that more densely populated areas tend to get hit harder by the hoarding mentality too

    @CS_AR TBH fter looking at newer 4wds for months I threw in the towel. I just don't like anything enough to buy. Gonna keep money in the piggy and get a daily, then spend a few coins casually fixing the Tacoma.

    Gotcha

    Just wanted to ask as @time623 and I had an interesting conversation regarding Solidworks and Fusion while on Zoom a few weeks back

    Whatcha paying Fusion for anyway?

    I've used it free for the +2 years I've had it.

    Luckily that was before Sofia was potty trained so we didn't go through that much of the stuff, I think my lowest point was buying some "recycled bamboo" toilet paper that luckily we never had to use. We had stocked up at Costco right before the shortage hit and rode on that
