Wow... they are so expensive. 88 dollars just for 2 12-14oz tails, plus 17 bucks for 2 day shipping (the cheapest shipping available)
Stu, I'm not sure about the immediate Manchester area, but 47 minutes away, in Hampton Beach NH, I know there are places that sell lobster.

I'm just not sure if they would be open now, it being the off-season, and them being on a beach (re: tourist) town.
I know we paid 21-25 dollars a pound for lobster in the MA area, and it's pretty much the same everywhere you go in New England (NH Included)
I"m sure that's better than prices in the Midwest where they have to ship in lobster, but that's the same price pretty much any good restaurant/live lobster place around here.
(Minus supermarkets where they are ok to good lobsters, but definitely not the best of all places to buy a lobster.)
Hopefully someone from the Manchester NH area will see this and respond with a better place.
But if not, Hampton Beach is a nice place, and you can visit part of the only 10-15 mile strip of beach in NH on the Atlantic.
