    The call to action — or rather inaction — is asking that American consumers refrain from making any purchases at major retailers on Friday, February 28. The protest comes as people continue to endure rising prices on everything from food and gas to housing and utilities, epitomized by the soaring cost of eggs which in January averaged $4.95 a dozen.

      2.5 dozen = $20.39

      $20.39÷30= $0.68 per egg.

      The discount bulk store brand is still $8.16 per dozen where I am.
