The big pink ones.
Edit: Ad says good 8-30-17 through 9-5-17
QFC had the 16-20 big boys for $5.99/lb, OK WTF.
When grilled or sauteed in garlic butter they taste like lobster!

Sale is over

They are the only shrimp I buy now. They are 9.99 at Safeway which is the same price of smaller regular shrimp. It's a dumb decision not to get them

I bought these twice from Fred Meyer at 7.99 a pound... made ceviche and I thought they were sort of tasteless. Maybe I'll try them sauteed next time.

I tried them both boiled and breaded/pan fried, didn't care for them. Too sweet.
Ya, try sauteed. Much better.

I murdered the better part of a 3 pound box of breaded 1oz jumbo butterfly prawns in 2 days.
The gout gods won.
Morning of day 3 I could hardly walk.

They are back at QFC for $5.98/lb. Dinner! Garlic sauteed, tastes like lobster.
Was kinda icy, told the guy to knock some ice off 'cuz I didn't want to pay for it.
He said the scale deducted the ice as tare......and showed me how it did!
Didn't know that before.
He said there was a lawsuit awhile back for people paying for ice in seafood, and now they have inspectors coming out every few weeks checking the scales and how it's being calculated.

I stopped and picked up three of the reclosable bags. Same price as the iced stuff but in a nice bag. I think they were 2 pounds each.

Where are the reclosable bags? Freezer? Side display?
I'm going back for more.
At the counter I have the seafood guy pick me out the big ones.

The counter guy at the Redmond Ridge QFC told me what's displayed in the counter is just bags he's emptied into there. The cheapo heat sealed bags were directly in front of the display, in the center of the aisle. The zip-lock ones were at the other end on the end cap. They're all the same price, just three different ways of packaging (packed by counter guy, heat sealed, or zip-lock sealed in a nice heavy bag).

There are probably more, just stop in on your way home this evening. I'm half tempted to get more... Have to ask Rita if there's room in the freezer.
