tyler9613 Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 I am new this year...planning for '09 . I need to know how you guys get your tremendous light counts. I am at 6009 lights from various online retailers and I'm already at $928. I don't have that much in my piggy bank at the moment...:?. Where do most of your lights come from? I am starting off at 16 channels, so my limit is about 8k-9.5k (lights not $$). Anyone recommend any site online that sells cheap lights in bulk quantities? I do plan to expand in '10, but not if I'm going to have to drop $1500 a year...thanks,tyler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are simply too many other areas where purchases have to be made where those discounts are not available.; such as electrical cables and controllers.Charles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tyler9613 Posted January 12, 2009 Author Share Posted January 12, 2009 Charles,I did go out and buy some lights for the display the day after christmas, but I still need more. For me, its too late to live in the past and wonder why I didn't buy wal-mart out, I need to live in the present and accept the fact that I was an idiot and need more lights. The show must go on...Thanks,tyler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crackchecker Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 Go visit your local Wally world, target, HD, or lowes and see if they have stock left over! Even if they have packed it away, if you are serious about making a purchase most will pull it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
