The quality (freshness) from these Asian market (besides T&T) is sub-par.

Can you elaborate on the details? Does using optimum rewards card give you extra discount all the time?

Why does Quebec have all the cheap lobster deals

Maybe because we catch lobsters ourself?

Back to topic, IGA sells cooked lobster at the same price as live one.

Gaspésie Île de la Madeleine are huge lobsters Fisher.

Also, as long as i remember, in Quebec, every beginning of May, there's always great deal on lobster in supermarket. It's like a tradition now.

I already ate 4 of them. I'll buy another 4 this week!

Love lobster!

Exactly,

In Quebec we only eat lobster on sale and Baloney.

Too poor for anything else

1-1.25 LB

Interesting fact Lobster in Canada is fished year round depending on the zone.
And now one of the main reasons its going up in price is the demand from the Chinese market.

they don't steam for you... it's free at Metro

Adonis has it for $10 on their flyer but they had none yesterday when I went there (in Ottawa).

Miss the Maritimes and those giant lobsters. 1.25lbs is nothing.

And i found those seafood butchers at Chinese supermarket (besides T&T) to be super-rude. They didn't even inform me the extra charge for chopping the lobster

I can't say for the rest of Canada, but in Québec, $7.99/lb has been the seasonal price for years.
