Lobsters are at a 20 year low and selling for $3.99 lb, steamed at your local super markets. With another season of exploding lobster population and warmer water the prices could drop to $2.99 soon!!!!!

Yesterday, 3 of us split 10 (steamed by Market Basket as we shopped) semi-hard shell lobsters, a dozen ears of corn, butter, and a 12 pack of Corona for about $60. TOTAL and NO mess. Tamale lobster rolls for me today after I clean the legs and bodies!!!
