Funny you should ask. I pay for them but my Baby Sis gets them for me. Usually I don't ask cuase she normally gets a ice chest on me also. BUT..... seems each trip over the last few years the shrimps seem to be getting larger and larger in size....LOL

Well its two diffrent sizes and two diffrent amounts. But total averaged was approx. 6.00/lb. Those supposedly jumbos were of course what drove the price up.

Its not too bad Mr. Disco..... you just pull the heads, put a handfull in a ziplock, fill with water, squeeze the air out gently so the tails don't poke holes in the bag. Then ya lay 'em flat and freeze them so afterwards they are easier to stack in the freezer.

I can laugh now, but it is also determined by if you have good ziploc's or they all come with holes in them....LOL BTW, I called them and they are sending me a check for the cost of those as well as a box of bags for me to enjoy. Its hard to stay mad with good customer service. I was even going to splurge and give 'em a piece of my mind, I can't spare it eaither, but she controlled and defused the situtation.

These were at the top at the zip line. I was so made...... and had I lost those shrimps they would have got more than a piece of my mind.

<Chuckles>

Once a nasty drunk (we've all met one), made me mad at an out-door party. A crayfish boil. I found out which was his car and filled his hubcaps with crawfish heads and put them back on. Ya know in a couple a weeks the paint was peeling off his rims...LOL

I heard he had a flat and left the car, called the service station, and picked it back up the next day. They actually made him park the car in the back lot at work. The boss didn't like the smell.....LOL  Never found where the smell was till the flat....ROFLMAO. It was great!

I am just a no account bastage when ya make me mad. I don't get even I get ahead.
