Wow, didn't know they actually do that to have such a price difference :o
Was it a regular / hypermarket carrefour? As we have a Carrefour express around the corner and there the prices are much higher as well. The shop owner is an independent and is opened 7 days out of 7, while 'normal' supermakets are often closed sunday afternoon and sometimes monday before noon.
But yes, eggs, if prepared well, I really love them!
Well, I know about the Carrefour tricks of upping (and lowering) prices a lot before and after their promos .. so I'm a bit more aware and paying attention nowadays BUT I personally didn't expect prices in a hypermarket to be this much higher than online. I understand if they sell it online through another store that a price can differ but it was the actual item sold from Carrefour in this case.
I can understand the Carrefour express differences because these prices are higher overall, it was really the hypermarket, sigh.
As we also checked some shavings machines on the spot, I now know that I will most likely not buy anything electric in store anymore lol. First check online, compare etc. But in some cases for the Carrefour savings check (in this case it was this as well) I will most likely still end up buying something there even if it's a few bucks more expensive because of being able to buy it with the cheque.
Eggs, ugh I guess I have to eat them today because today I'm even having a lower protein percentage, according to the scale. It will take me a bit of time to figure this out I guess, but hey, as long as the Blood pressure is under control, the rest will follow slowly, right?
Have a good day!

I experienced carrefour as bzing one of the more expensive supermarkets anyway so not going there for my usual groceries.
What cheque are you talking about? A method to pay with crypto or some 'food cheques' or such?
Lile you I don't the yellow of the egg, but when it's all mixed, I don't taste it that much and thus don't care that much. But when boiled, I don't like the yellow at all..
No here in Spain they have this system where you save 1% of your spendings (and a ton of other promotions and connected companies) towards your "savings cheque" which they hand out every 2 months..
At first I blinded followed their 2 for 1 promos where you saved 1 x the money in the cheque. I had a 170 euro cheque I think it was the first time. BUT then I discovered they up their prices a lot and these toilet paper savings for 20 euros every time were actually just the price the added to it in total (talking about XXL packs lol) I discovered later that you can buy them for half price somewhere else and so I started to pay closer attention.
I discovered they do it with things as Coffee cups too, criminal practice if you ask me. Now my usual savings in 2 months are more like 20-50 euros tops depending on if they had some long shelve things for the normal price (so it's actually a saving lol) which I needed or not. If not, I will not load up anymore.
I don't know if Carrefour does this in other countries too these savings systems, never had them near a home until in Spain.
Haha I only like the yellow :) not the white.. but my daughter is the same, she hates the yellow while that's the part that's tasty.. all fine, at least in our case it means we get to share these eggs lol.

In Belgium you get points for every 2 euro spent. When you reach 500 points, you receive a cheque of €5. Son it means, you get a reduction of %0,5
Not worth it compared to the higher prices they have, atleast here.
There are some promotions where you can earn extra points for purchasing product X. But yea, receiving 20 points when you need to buy something of €50 is still not worth it imo.. When there's no other option aka no other supermarkets, it's a different story ofcourse. Just looking at prices here.
Woops, mixed up you and your daughter 🙈
Defo not worth the money, it seems they have a scammy attitude overall :)
But hey people fall for it, so did I! They are in bad luck with me though as I remember prices very well and notice it when prices of items we always buy increase and know where to go for which item.. often waiting for a returning promotion etc.. So I noticed quite fast, thankfully. When I noticed, I brought back 1 of these XXL packs toiletpaper and they stupidly didn't deduct the 20 euros savings, lol. So that was my compensation for falling for the tricks!
I now only buy certain items there as they are the only ones selling them, and sometimes I'm lucky like with our bio toothpaste which is always the same price (also at other online stores) and second was 50% off now. No price increased first, so that's a good reason to get two, but otherwise, I will not do it.
No worries about mixing, in this case, I'm happy that one likes the yolk and the other the white, at least I don't have to throw out half of the eggs then!
