At this point - 30-40 minutes drive to Market Basket is worth it.

I can not believe the difference in prices. Lots of stuff is literally half price compared to other stores. If not, so many things a dollar or more less. It adds up fast!

Yeah....this is your mistake. Everything at Shaws is wicked expensive. If you want a good egg deal, go to trader Joe's ($2.99 for 12) or wegmans (2× 18packs for $11).

FYI also to all those doing Thanksgiving grocery runs: just saw at TJs that 3 herb packs (sage, thyme, rosemary bunches) is $2.99 (compared to $2 for each herb at most other places). Pomegranates for $2.99 each. Whole Butternut squash $2.99 each no matter the size. They also are selling heritage farm turkeys and Kosher turkeys, if that's your jam. Other jems I saw were whole roasted and peeled chestnuts, cedar&balsam candles, portobello mushroom consensed soup, vegan brioche bread for stuffing, and "Thanksgiving stuffing" rice.
