Lobster for Christmas dinner cheaper than ever: Economy pinches lobster market-by Kirk Moore
Cheaper than a pack of hot dogs. That's how some Maine fishermen describe the prices they are getting for lobster, at $2.40 to $2.60 a pound, down from a $10 high in spring 2007. "Now it's getting to the point where your average consumer can afford to buy them," said John Godwin of Point Lobster Co. in Point Pleasant Beach, N.J., as he looked over 10,000 pounds of fresh-caught local lobsters crawling in the company's indoor pound.
