Hi Patrick

I'm in the process of setting up my colony and just got my egg crates from a local egg ranch/poultry farm/store. You may want to start to look for similar facilities if you want to get them at a very good price. I got them for 10 cents each just to give you an idea how cheaply you can get them if you look around and find the right place. If you buy the whole 4 foot stack it would be even cheaper. I've checked online and you can get 7-8 times more crates by looking for the facilities I mentioned than ordering online. Hope this helps. Take care

Patrick,
Try Hickman's Egg Ranch - western Phoenix/Glendale area
They should let you buy flats for very reasonable!

Check out Eggcartons.com, they have pretty good prices if you can't find them locally, I know I can't. I've not purchased anything from this company, but plan to the next time I need a case as they are quite a bit cheaper than where I bought them before: www.eggcartons.com/index.htm

Buy a soft drink from a fast food place and ask for a few extra drink carrying trays. Mention why you need them for an added bonus.
