I got my squid -- frozen -- at a local Chinese grocery.  It was cleaned, 
except for a bit of the plastic-like spine inside, and was only $2.99/lb, 
as compared to the fresh, intact-with-eyes-and-everything squid at the 
fish counter for $2.69/lb.  The frozen calamari pieces in my local 
supermarket (mostly tentacle rings) are around $3.50/lb.
