Do you buy fresh live lobster to cook at home?

Hi there! I was at the market today and bought fresh and live lobsters at $6.99 a pound. A good size lobster is usually a pound and a half, so I bought some and cook them at home for dinner. There are different ways of cooking lobster but I usually cook mine by dunking it in a boiling water. One time I also tried cooking it using a steamer canister that is specifically just for lobster. Between these two methods, I prefer the boiling way because the lobster ends up juicier than when it is steamed. I eat my lobster with butter and garlic for dipping. I also like it with white rice and corn on the cob. How about you? Do you buy live lobsters? How much does a pound cost in your area? How do you cook it? Would love to hear from you.
