that's Shreveport for you. $5.99/lb. already boiled.

guess the cost of getting them up here is offset to the customer like mofo

Alexandria had places that were selling at 2.40 a lb last weekend. If you are looking for a big boil it may pay for you to make the drive.

ETA...probably not, gas at 3.40 a gallon is a little steep.

Looking for a sack, maybe two depending.

Get some chicken necks, some nets and a long pole. Catch your own then come back and complain about paying $3.99 a pound.

Crawfish Tyme is the best. It's worth whatever they're charging. What brings you to the metropolis?

Doing a boil next weekend in East Texas. Normally I'd just bring them up from Houston, but I've got a couple days to kill up there before I actually boil. Figure it's just easier to buy them in Shreveport the day of.
