Everything is more expensive in my small town, Chicken Scratch just went up to over $9 a bag, and the feed store is giving us $2.60 a dozen for our eggs, that's up from $2.30 last month. So far the plan for our chickens to pay for themselves is working and I am no longer buying eggs at the store. I give all credit to GOD! Gas recently is down from $3.15 to $3.05 but I'm not holding my breath. SEMPER FI (new)> As of today 11/19/11 Gas is 3.89 and were getting 3.00 a doz on eggs
