First, a dozen eggs don't cost twelve dollars.

Second, in America the currency indicator comes before the number.

Third, "distugested" that's one hell of a typo

Sounds like a guy who thinks you need a license to buy a loaf of bread.

Why do people think a dozen eggs costs $12?

A quick search turned up this 18 count of eggs for $9 at our local chain. And that was just the first result I found that had the price on the page (you have to click a button to see it, unfortunately, but it is there).

Holy shit that's a lot for eggs.

At Ralph's 12 cage free large eggs cost $3.99

Free range (the most expensive if you are conscious about chicken treatment) large eggs are for $7.49
