Just want to mention for future reference that I have found eggs shipped on Friday or Saturday almost always reach their destination by Monday, no matter the distance. While the PO is not open on Sunday, the mail still moves, and actually seems to move faster then. And at least here, Monday is a...
You won't really know until you put them up on the actual auction thread. More people follow that thread than this one. Being that a few people are still looking for eggs for the Easter HAL (set day is next Sat, the 25th), there should be some interest.

The bleeding was very slow to stop, so my DD got to practice her First Aid today.
It is all supply and demand. You can't control the price the auctions end at. If you have extra eggs and no order for them, isn't it better to get something than nothing? Whoever is telling you that wouldn't get along in my house AT ALL! I am constantly giving my eggs away to friends and...
