That’s $3 for 15 eggs. Sadly not free-range, only cage-free.
Not sure if this is the best community for this post, does anyone have a better suggestion?

What is that “:-” symbol next to the number? I thought they used “kr” as the symbol for their money?
It’s short for 35:00, so the price is 35 kronor and 0 ören
: is an interesting separator that I would only think of for time
i’ve made a post about his before, but it sort of used to be an öre separator. it’s just that people have forgotten, so now you get stuff like “23,50:-”
they use :- instead of currency symbol because then you don’t think of it as money, you are more likely to happily pay a bigger price
I’m just working off context here, can’t really defend the Swedes. It seems a little unusual to me too.
But I can’t complain too much, because there are plenty of weirdoes in my country who use single dots for time, which I find even worse. Especially because the dot is also often a decimal separator. So depending on context 9.25 can be 09:25 or 9 hours and 15 minutes.
I like to keep things simple and don’t use any separator at all for time.
Ah that makes sense. Like the other guy said that just makes me think of time lol.
