Covid 19 Bargains?- not virus related

As everyone is hunkered down due to various restrictions on the virus it has caused lots of aggravation, distress and inconvenience. BUT - it is seems to be creating some situations that may benefit those of us out and about somewhere that can take advantage of whatever it may be, and one of those popped out of nowhere today...

My son's ex wife lives in LA. Our extended family lives there as well. DS called today and due to the circumstances surrounding the virus, restaurant closures etc. he found a deal that anyone in the area may be able to utilize. I won't bore you with the background details but seems with all the restaurant closures the crawfish farmers are having a tough time. Tons (literally) of crawfish and nowhere to sell them. Bottom line was $.40 per lb. for bulk crawfish - usually (last year) $2 lb. Ponds were brimming as I was told. Folks from Dallas about to make those trips to "haul 'em in".

If you're anywhere near the area might be a good time to catch a great deal an help out some folks at the same time. Just thought I'd throw that out there for any "mudbug" fans.
