Denny Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 I was in the local Big Lots yesterday and they have been putting out there Christmas merchandise. I needed some green lights to finish my coro props. I was hoping for LEDs but had to settle for incandescent. They did have red, blue and white leds though. So, if you are in need of some lights to finish a project, it might be worth a trip to your Big Lots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Grunts Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 yea, Big Lots don't carry green c6 leds only blue red and warm and cool white.

Orville Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 Yep, they start putting out their Halloween items around end{last week} of July beginning of August, and then the Christmas stuff shows up from 1-3 weeks later, around mid to late August in my area. I recall when you didn't find Halloween décor in stores until about the 2nd week of September and Christmas items were never out at the same time as Halloween décor, the Christmas stuff usually didn't show up until the beginning of November! My how the times have changed on how retail stores put out and display Halloween and Christmas, well, any Holiday décor now. But at least for us holiday decorator light display to music animators, I guess it's a good thing they start early, but still not early enough for some of us.

Orville Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 Hey Tony, where about in Florida are you visiting? They also just opened a Spirit Halloween Store just up the road from me as well on East S.R.50/Colonial Drive in Orlando, if you're interested, Great place to find those Halloween goodies/props if you do a Halloween display.

Mega Arch Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 Saw 18ft ropelight there for $7.50. Has anyone bought theirs and successfully cut it down? I would imagine it's cutable, but I didn't have time to roll it out and try to see if had cut marks or not. (& didn't have the right glasses with me. Ouch. I'm that guy. ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The store isn't too far away but we don't do Halloween just Christmas. I already have loads of stuff to get home including 3 controllers 500 foot of SPT2, 25 strobes and lots of extras. Not sure I have room for much else. Might check out the store if I get up to the 50 just for interest. Cheers Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orville Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 Rats, for some reason quoting doesn't work in I.E. 11. Ugh! Too far for me Tony, since you're down Kissimmee way, I'm in Northeast Orlando{although that gets debatable LOL!}. legally blind and so no longer drive or own a vehicle, just thought if you may have been near where I am maybe could have met up for a moment or two. Always enjoy meeting others on the forums I access when possible. Anyway, hope you're having a wonderful vacation and a great time here in Florida!

aesl1982 Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 I went to hobby lobby and bought about 60 boxes to do the white on my singing Christmas trees. So far I've found two of the boxes only had 48 lights instead of 50 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
