Happy Tuesday. Cheap-cheap-cheap-cheap! Yes, you heard it. Eggs are getting cheaper. The Bureau of Labor Statistics reported that the average price of a dozen large Grade A eggs dropped by 32% between January and April, as last year's avian flu begin to weaken. Experts say there are now more hens and eggs on the market, and that, combined with a drop in demand, sent prices on a downward trend. Shoppers should see some price relief in the coming weeks. That is pretty egg-cellent. Another California insurance company no longer offering home insurance Allstate Insurance Company has joined State Farm in moving to no longer insure new California customers because of wildfire risks and rising construction costs. While Allstate will continue coverage for existing customers, a spokesperson said the costs of insuring a new home customer is far higher than what Allstate would pay for policies due to wildfires, and high price of home repairs and reinsurance premiums. In 2022, there were more than 7,490 fires in the state that burned through more 362,455 acres. 📰 More stories you shouldn't miss 📰 Tuesday Instacart fragrance giveaway: Here's how to get limited edition Cashé Under Americans with Disabilities Act, you can still give employee feedback.
