My parents send me a "lobster gram" for our anniversary every year. I have no idea what it costs them, but other people want diamonds and money. I get lobsters, clams, etc. It is wonderful, and something that wouldn't be the same in a local restaurant. Yeah, they're all still alive and kicking when they show up at my door. The postal carrier (sometimes USPS, sometimes various other ones) have been known to ask me if it really is alive shelfish. Yup. So once a year it is a huge treat. I tell everyone I know that I'm expecting it, and not to expect me to do anything at all. We light the candles, buy some good wine, and make a 3 day feast of the bounty. I'd go out of my way for it, but luckily I don't have to.
