    A fellow poster (thanks Aunt Sissy) tells me that GR has some flickering string lights I am looking for. Do any of you have a picture of them?

    I'm willing to pay a finder's fee if someone can buy them and ship them if they are the right ones.

    The nearest GR is at least 150 miles from here, and that's too much of a drive...

    If you can tell me exactly which ones you want I will see if my GR has them. I'll buy and ship them to you at cost...no need for a "finder's fee". Not like I'll be going out of my way to get them for you!

    If they are what I'm looking for, they are purple and orange cluster lights that flicker. They don't have speed control, and they aren't flashing lights. They just flicker, and in person they look pretty cool...

    Here is a video that doesn't really do them justice.

    I should be by there in the next few days. I'll try to take a picture and post it along with price info so you can confirm that it's what you want.

    Sorry, Wilbret, they didn't have them. The only cluster lights I saw were colored like candy corn and they didn't flicker. The only flickering lights I saw were bigger and had only 10 lights to a strand.
    Maybe some one else can check their store out for you.

    Wilbret--I looked at all of the lights at our Garden Ridge today. There must have been 100 different ones, but not any flickering ones like you described.
    Sorry!
