Spot Prawn 2018
 

That time again:

TnT: $26.99/lb

What's a good price nowadays? Seems like every year they're getting more expensive. Was 23.99/lb @ Osaka T&T yesterday. Almost pulled the trigger

Holy shxt?! $27 per lb?!

Damn I remember when it was only $13/lb... :badpokerface:

Seems like EVERYTHING in BC is inflated now, i guess too many ppl willing to pay.

Or rather a ton of them is being shipped elsewhere so less supply for BC.

Look further, was $7/lb in 2009

Any good spot prawn recipes?
I plan on dropping good coin on prawns this weekend, and like to mix it up a bit.

damn, was it 2009? times flying by..

you can get it thru fb groups for 25/lb when you buy 4lbs at a time.

grow our own prawns LOL

Damn $27

Any price updates if you've noticed. Thanks.

$21.99 at Yat Ming on Kingsway. Cheap, but not sure how I feel about buying from them given their history.

^^^ tell us more

was $20 at the spot prawn festival, good size

$24 at T and T

$24/lb at fresh eats, same side as Save on at Byrne

TandT is $20/lb this week

I believe they've been caught multiple times buying black market fish/seafood, aka undersized crabs

Damn... $18.88/lb at price smart foods metro town kingsway!!!

Foody World 15.99 today but looked like low quantities left

Was over ambitious yesterday at T&T and got 2.5lbs for my wife and I. On it's own that's a decent amount but I had BBQ at home and by the time we were done it was already 10. Only managed to eat half and had to cut off the heads to preserve the shrimps for today since I wasn't going to freeze them. Used the heads and made a bisque which was bomb. My body is ready for more!

$20/lb still at the wharf beside Granville Island. Buddy hooked it up. Got nearly pound and a half and he only charged me for the pound. Meanwhile, the vendors at the market in Granville Island are selling for $28/29 and its guaranteed they'll charge you the exact weight.

$24.99 at TnT again. Anywhere still selling for $19.99?
