Winter Pool Noodle Source?

Saw these on Amazon for $1.75, shipping will get ya.  But hey might save you some gas.

Check plumbing supply houses
A couple of years ago I was cleaning out the marts clearance pool noodles and a guy told me to check Ferguson (local plumbing supply).They were giving them away! Free!

Apparently they're made by the same people who make pipe insulation and they dropped at least a couple of trailers full to give away. I got there near the end of them (they'd been giving them away for a month) and filled my F-150's bed with full boxes! They are the smaller 3.5" diameter and some are hexagonal, but they filled all my boats.

Again, that was a couple of years ago, but it might be worth checking. 

This sites ad just popped up on the side bar regarding pool noodles.

saw pool noodles in stock at Sherwood Target store last night.

I bought a big red one in Orlando a couple of weeks ago but left it there. Oh well, I saw bikinis on sale at Walmart here last week, noodles can't be far behind.

I also saw them at the Bonney Lake Target this weekend....  two diameters "4 and 3 inch I think"

Don't use these folks:

$30 shipping on a $15 order!  Theives!

Anybody come up with a local source yet?  I'm in Tacoma and that's about the last part I need for my kayak cart and transducer install.

I see pool noodles at Fred Meyer now. I assume most stores (target, dollar store, etc) probably have them now.

Thanks.  I'll check them out tomorrow and report back.

Physically checked Fred Meyer and Target today.  No noodles.  Called a few more and no joy in Tacoma.

FYI, while in search of the holy grail of batteries here in Bend (12v lead sealed), I made a swing through Wal-Mart ..... Seems they have begun their transition to summer. Didn't see the noodles yet but I think they're gonna appear soon. Pool and water sport stuff is being assembled on the shelves. Might be worth another look in a week.

Fred Meyer had them in stock in Marysville today.How do you guys secure them in a Revo. They had 2 sizes. I bought 2 1/4" x 56". Do I need the larger diameter ones? If so I'll return and get the larger ones.

Bought 6 of them at the Dollar Tree for... yep, you guessed it $1 a piece.

Duh!! Found the previous thread on placement. The more the merrier.
