OMG i just went shopping - And you will NOT believe this
So i go up to this place called Dierbergs, I'm looking for Crab legs. I pull it out and I'm like WHAT THE FUCK they're 40$ for two legs apiece! So i have to spend 120$ to feed my family for one night? FOURTY FUCKING DOLLARS FOR TWO OF THEM. I'm like, this isn't gonna feed me for shit! They got left behind. I didn't buy them. I'll just hit an Asian Grocery store and buy Crab Legs for a fraction of that. Their Sushi sucked, too. You wanna actually feed yourself you gotta spend 500$, Not gonna happen. My Daughter would LAUGH at two Crab Legs. She'd have those things munched down in like a minute-thirty. And be doing the whole Oliver Twist thing at me "Please, sir, can I have some more."
I have the money, but it's the point of it. I'll just hit an Asian Grocery.
But GOD, do these people not like money?

I did get some Tuna and some Shrimp (I hit the seafood section pretty hard),
(I also got some Chocolate Brownies, *Blush*)

Yeah crab legs are pricey but those artificial crab california sushi rolls are good if you are on a budget. Yes the hispanic and asian stores are far cheaper for meat.

indiegirl I'm not really on a budget, but I don't pay that absorbent of a price for something I can just get at Red Lobster or Hooters for 10$.

Red lobster is like barely one notch above Captain D's .... Might as well get a seafood combo from Captain D's for 7.99 ..... LOL

Re: OMG i just went shopping - And you will NOT believe this
LOL!
The lobsters at Red Lobsters are not anywhere near as good quality as what you find in upscale east cost seafood restaurants like Legal Seafoods, etc. I've tasted lobster at some high end restaurants that could put Red Lobster out of business.
Only old people and people who don't know any better love Red Lobsters. (no offense to you if you are a red lobster restaurant lover)
Youre better off buying it fresh from a decent grocery store n letting the kid cook it. It would come out better than red lobster. llol!
And yeah King Crab is pricey. Its crazy they price it by the pound but the shell is very thick n heavy compared to the snow crab. Maybe its harder to harvest n catch? Idk

Oh, i haven't been to Red Lobster in ten years, I usually go to Joe's Crab Shack, I just didn't mention it because I don't even know if you have it, but you know what I'm saying. FOURTY DOLLARS is too much for two crab legs.

This place seems awesome. I want one of the 15 pound-ers

Re: OMG i just went shopping - And you will NOT believe this
Wow, they saw you coming, huh?
I sometimes buy the fake ones at Aldi, like $4.00 or so, they have to be consumed within a couple days.
My chloresteral is too high for all that stuff, I pretty much quit all shellfish

yes we have Joe’s Crab Shack. It’s delicious! Much better than Red Lobster and about the same prices.
Only time I go to Red Lobster is if it’s Grandma Ednas birthday and I’m forced to celebrate with her. She is oddly very excited to go there.
and $40 for 2 king crab legs is almost the price point considering the whole crab is like $350 or so

Capital Grill has some VERY tasty seafood. A bit more expensive than Joe’s Crab Shack but definitely worth a trip to CG when that stimulus check hits lol!

Re: OMG i just went shopping - And you will NOT believe this
I, personally liked the Stone Crab claws, harder to find.
& Bob Chinn's has the BEST seafood, they also have steaks, chicken

Crazy how big they are!! I'm happy to kill a spider but I'd be shedding tears over killing something like a chicken or crab LOL. I'm such a baby. It's better to pretend it was never living lol.
Kinda like petting a cow knowing it was about to be eaten by you. Wouldn't be able to handle it. LOL.

Re: OMG i just went shopping - And you will NOT believe this
^Probably why they stuff you with cheap carbs (bread n potatoes) so you wont know any better
-
Re: OMG i just went shopping - And you will NOT believe this
So what would you serve with it? I literally can't think of anything to serve with 40$ crab legs.
I may go up and see if they have Snow Crab. I about shit myself when I saw the price of TWO King Crab legs! I mean, it was like 43$, who's gonna buy that? It's probably been sitting there for MONTHS.

Re: OMG i just went shopping - And you will NOT believe this
A $40 cut of the finest steak you can buy :D

Re: OMG i just went shopping - And you will NOT believe this
I think it is! Just go to Joe's crab shack or Bob Chinn's crab house

Well, that's fucking ridiculous. I'd be STARVING to death. 350$ for a fucking crab?
I went up to look for Snow Crab, they didn't have any. :( I'll try another store tomorrow. WHERE ARE THESE FUCKING CRABS??????
