It all depends but if you want to find out if it's good or not....
Fortunately, a simple test exists to determine if an egg is as edible as it looks. There is a small air pocket in the large end of an egg. When the egg is fresh, the pocket is only about 1/8th of an inch deep and about as large around as a dime. As the egg ages, it loses both moisture and carbon dioxide so that the size of the air space increases, making the egg (among other things) more buoyant. So, if you submerge a very fresh egg in water, it will lie on the bottom. An egg that is a week or so old will lie on the bottom but bob slightly. An egg that is three weeks or so old will balance on its small end. And bad egg will float.
Quoted from the web page which also happens to have a little poem about it!!!

I've used them up to a 2 or 3 weeks after sell date - just crack one open and see what it looks and smells like - if it smells ok - use it.

Months, grocery stores actually wash them, and repackage them. Try traders Joes they print a freshness date on each egg.

They tend to stay good for a long time. I'd guess at least 2 weeks.
You'll know if it is bad when you crack it open...rotten eggs stink.
