The landlord's favorite place to buy shrimp in New Orleans was the Cajun Seafood market on Claiborne and he did not hesitate to stock up on shrimp when he dropped by the shotgun double house he bought as an investment a few years ago. Sadly, it was 685 miles one way to visit the property and even though gas was available at $1.88 per gallon and the car achieved 25 miles per gallon, it was an expensive and lengthy trip. Therefore he bought the cheapest plane tickets he could muster at $299 round trip and packed a cooler with $12 worth of ice.
