Can I see your low budget/no budget egg selling stands?

Sorry, I wasn't sure what section to put this in...

I am now getting 5 eggs a day, and have 7 more still to come online. I am soon going to run out of room on my counter for all of these eggs. Turns out my friends and family don't eat eggs very quickly either. 5 eggs a day probably isn't enough to justify a roadside stand, but 12 eggs a day will be. What has everybody done for a low budget/no budget roadside stand?
 
I don't have a picture of my simple setup, but i have an egg sign I made from an old piece of pressure treated plywood. I cut it in the shape of an egg and painted it white then wrote my eggs for sale message on it.
I bought a couple of those thin driveway marker sticks and attached some streamers to them to draw attention.
then i have a makeshift table that i set my cooler on.
i use plastic juice containers 3/4 full of water that I have frozen to keep eggs cool all day. It also helps that I have a shade tree at the end of my driveway.
And get your eggs in the refrigerator. A counter top egg ages in one day what a refrigerator egg does in a weak. That's what a refrigerator is for. To keep food fresher longer.
I know, Europe does not refrigerate eggs. but Europe also has a law that requires all laying hens to be vacinated for salmonella. USA does not have this safeguard.
Sell only fresh eggs and use the older ones yourself.
One bad egg will loose you a good egg customer forever.
Good luck!
