I drank two a day: Once in the morning for breakfast and once in the evening before bed.

Plus, the storage in the mini-fridge wasn't an issue. Back in the day, I would buy a dozen eggs from Publix on my way back from the gym to school during the evening. That was much easier when I could take the bus for free, using my college ID.

Before bed, I made my shake with powdered milk and six eggs. I drank it and washed out my blender. I stored the rest of the eggs in the mini-fridge overnight. When I woke up the next morning, I made another shake with the remaining six eggs, and that was breakfast.

The only time I bought more than a dozen eggs was on Tuesdays, since I didn't (and still don't) train on Wednesdays.  I don't see how storing 1-2 dozen eggs in a mini-fridge is an issue.
Thank you for explaining the logistics, I couldn't see how they were only there overnight or a day or so, now I understand.

I give you hardcore props for a dozen raw a day!

I did what I had to do. The secret, that ain't so secret, to getting big is eating more food. Plus, I was on a budget. Eggs and powdered milk were the most economical. But, boiling them sucked; scrambling them was fine (if you wolfed them down in 30 seconds; otherwise, they tasted like rubber).

Greg Zulak, of MuscleMag International fame from days of yore, said it best: "It's way easier to bring 1000 calories and 100 grams of protein than it is to eat them."

Mixed with milk and some flavoring (e.g. Nestle Quik), drinking a dozen eggs is fairly easy, as long as you divide the mix into two or three batches.
