My replacement stock was healthy, so I didn't make the usual day after Christmas rounds. But by the second day, I just couldn't stand it any longer and went on a tour of my favorite "honey holes". Hit about 20 stores; some only had one box, others had a few more.
I can't stand the thought of paying retail prices, ever, so I spent a couple hundred bucks and filled up the back seat.
Here are some examples of the LED prices I found:
White net lights 70ct - $7
Red, Green and Blue C6 50ct strings - $5.49
Red, Green and Blue "traditional smooth incan" shaped LEDs (Sylvania) 50ct strings - $5.99
Pink and Purple C6 60ct strings -$4.25
