:) Ok - I need help bad - I got all my lawn stuff out. Ran all my cables for my lights - mounted the lor boxes - went into my back shed to get my lights and THEY ARE GONE. Someone over the course of the year stole 4 big bins of my lights out of the shed. I dont go into the shed all year as it is just for my x-mas stuff so when I went to get the lights out is when I found out. I cant afford to go to the local store and replace them all so was wondering if any one know a REALLY CHEAP online place to get them.
I need red - green - blue and white.

If anyone knows any place PLEASE let me know.

Best Regards,

Gary

Hi Aaron,

At this point I have none. I had 1600 Blue - 1600 Red - 1600 Green and 2500 White. As I am sure with most out there at least on long island it has been a really bad year and I can afford to go to the local store to replace them which is why I was hoping by some small miracle the was a really cheap site on the internet. Anything at this point would be great.

Best Regards,

Gary

Sorry that happened to you and glad your controllers were not stored in the shed with the lights.

Yea Thank god. I have 2 sheds and the big lawn stuff and the controllers were in the other shed. It stinks cause the lights are still a big $$$$ and with the way the year has been I dont have the money to replace them this year. Last year was the 1st year with the setup and it went over really good. Looks like this year we will have to pass because of the lights.

Ok, what I have to offer is only a drop in the bucket and might not work for you. I have about 3 strings of 70ct red and green. If you can use these, send a PM with your address.

Shame that there are assholes in the world that have a flocked up mind to think that yours is theirs too.

Thanks Paul. Pm sent. Every little bit helps. I am been searching the net the whole weekend and there is no way I could afford to by all new lights. One day I will find the people that took them or karma will get them.

That Sucks badly... Sorry to hear that.

Are you on long island NY? I have no idea if I will have extra lights, truth is I may even end up running short... Other wise I would offer to help you.

If you have some money to spend on lights you may want to check big lots, pm me if you need / want store location. They had sets of 140 mini white, red, blue, or green for 4$. Wall mart had sets of 100 mini lights for just under 3$ but they may all be gone there.

Taggert had sets of 100 minis for 5$. The store I went to was pretty much out of none LED mini lights, but they said they were getting more in.

Chancres are the shipping online will coast more then going to a store to buy them to begin with.

You may not be able to replace all of them, but you may be able to get a few sets. I would recommend checking big lots first if you are interested in purchasing a few sets since they seamed to have the most left saturday, and had a pretty good light to price rate.

I bought a bunch of white,red/green mini's from Walmart here in Texas last week. They were $2.88 per box non LED. Still had stacks and stacks left on the shelf's. don't know if there is one by you but it may be worth a shot.

Neighbor two doors down had his 28ft extension ladder stolen Saturday night. He and I had been working on our display's all week. Saturday he went to a highschool football game, and we think some roofers in the neighborhood decided to upgrade their ladders. It's a shame.. really put a damper on our day!

I would send you what I have but knowing the Canada post it wouldn't get to you untill about the third week of Dec with customs and all, I am assuming your sheds have locks on them and if they don't a lesson for everyone lock your stuff up that way if it does go missing with a burglary you can claim it with your home owners insurance this stuff is not cheap and I feel your loss I don't wish this on anyone as I know how much work and money goes into this obsesion of ours hopefully you get enough lights to run a show.

Ok - Some after some help from some really great people in this forum (will mention their names if they give me permission) I am almost done setting everything up. I hope to be done today as since I got the lights it has been in the 30's

I will post a video tonight or tomorrow

Thanks to all
