I wonder why eggs aren’t on the list? Maybe because the drop is triple digits? I saw eggs for $2.20 a dozen this week. Granted it was for like a seven dozen box, but a few months ago the price on that box was over double.
My observation is some of the major grocery stores definitely have a pricing strategy to gouge wherever possible. Some others seem to have a more simple pricing strategy where they tack a desired margin onto what they pay.
I’m pretty sure Aldi is an example of a chain that just tacks on a margin.

They're still at 8.99 here in commie California ...
But that's just the major grocery stores, you can get lower prices a few places, but I haven't seen them below 4.49 anywhere.
Damn!

I remember a few years back paying 33 cents a dozen for them at Aldi's!
I think people need to understand the difference between loss leader sales and average prices
