They're baaaaaaaaaaack . . . lobsters are in H-Mart (in Fairfax, Virginia) for $4.99/lb this weekend. That's down from what it was two weeks ago. They have live abalone for $3.99 (each)! I called the local Giant in Northern Virginia and their price this week is $11.99/lb. The Asian supermarkets seem to run these specials more than other supermarkets.

Link to their circular here:

At Demoulas in Massachusetts they are $3.99/lb. Link to their circular here.

Does anyone here stock up when it's cheap and prepare it for freezing and using it later? Is it worth doing? Any recommendations?
