Bought another bag of 6 for $3.88. 
The avocados have barely started to ripen. Me sad. 
What markets do you visit for your avocado purchases? Walmart avocados are routinely crap, and usually expensive.
I usually go by price: if a bag of 6 is $3.99 CDN or less, I will get some. Asian/Halal stores often have a better price than the big chains.
2 of the 6 were barely ripe enough to put on toast; 1 was still hard as a brick and went into the compost bin; the rest are next to some bananas for a last ditch ripening.
ETA: Avocados on sale at local grocer $3.88/bag of 6.
Success!!!

Just had one of the 3 holdovers: chopped it up with some pickled onions and salt on toast!!
Finished the last 2: managed to get 1 1/2 for avocado toast.
$2.41 for a bag of 6 green, severely underripe avocados !!!
My gf made some good guacamole with the avocados!!!
Avocado toast for brekkie!!!
That sounds really good. How do you cook your shrimp?
No cooking: I thawed some frozen, precooked shrimp. So gooooood!!!
Avocados were $2.89 a bag at the Asian/Halal store, but I need to take a bit of a break.
I’m totally stealing your recipe this weekend.

Ya think?
No avocados, but a bunch of green, rock hard bananas: they sat for 5 ****in’ days in the kitchen and no word of a lie, it was a bear to peel one and it was almost crunchy on the inside. They’re sitting in a closed paper bag right now and I’ll check on them in a day or so. 
ETA: 3 of the 5 ripened after a solid 4 days in a closed paper bag. 2 are still stubbornly hanging on to their green.
