I’ll start with some ideas…

  • Hard boil a couple eggs, and write $1 on them. Then, next time you go into a store, offer to pay for your stuff with the eggs.
  • Try to get an insurance policy on a dozen eggs.
  • Try to pawn a dozen eggs.

Hey, if the egg prices are gonna be ridiculous, people might as well have a few lighthearted pranks for shits and giggles!

What ideas do you folks have?

    If you have room for it, buy some chickens.
    Tractor supply Company sells them as chicks in the spring.
    This pranks the factory farm industry by refusing to give them money to continue their cruel, unsanitary, and inhumane practices.

    List stuff to sell, like your car, but have it say with the price “will only accept eggs”. Plus side of this joke will be that you don’t have to go in debt to purchase some eggs for it.

    Tell crypto people to invest into CHCKN as it will be a solid investment. If they ask which crypto that is, you tell them “no no, chicken, as in the bird. EGG currency is going to skyrocket”

    3d print a plastic egg box with plastic card holder in it and tell people you got a new wallet.

    Go to a grocery store and go “psst, want to buy some quality merchandise?” to random people passing by. Then reveal the inside of your jacket lined with eggs.

    in one of the Lucky Luke albums, a town was under siege. Because the price of eggs skyrocketed, one egg was sold and resold until, during a transaction, a chick popped out, causing the price to rise even higher because it was now called a chicken !
