Haha.  Would love to be doing that Mazda.  Still finishing 2 more LE builds and then waiting for the after Christmas sales to buy those lights.  I might be waiting till next year to get into the smart/dumb string world.

A Sale?!  a Sale?!  That sounds like a wonderful way to stay in the graces of the wife!  Mine, who had the audacity of saying, you know you are going to have to stick with this hobby?  SHE'S the one said we have to do that next year when we say an animated house last season!

Seriously, who puts the lights on sale after Christmas?  I did not think Ray did a "sale" persay.

Sales after the season are really for the most part a thing of the past.  The stores put the Christmas stuff out arund the middle of October and sometimes even earlier and many are pretty much sold out of the good stuff about a week after Thanksgiving.  Some of the Online LED providers have pre-season sales that kick off in January with delivery around the middle of the year.

Unless you are in the middle of nowhere like myself...  The K-mart and Menards here do it

Just checked your profile and took a second look at your picture.  Is that base housing?  I was stationed at MAFB from Aug, 94 till retirement in Apr 01, then continued to live over on 20th St NW until '05.

Nope, down by the river.  Didn't move to Minot till after I got out of the Air Force LOL.  You wouldn't believe this town now.  Oil has blown this place up like a balloon.

Time to sell and move, take the money and run, unless you like 40 below with wind chill!

I was in Home Depot and thought of this thread when I saw these magnets. Maybe they will work.
