Default I was all set oto place an order for fire extinguishers...
I got to thinking about a friend whose car burned today due to an overcharging battery..and I said, you need some extinguishers.

So I found some Kidde 2lb extinguishers...17.00 each...freakin awesome. Put 3 in my cart..put in 3 vehicle mounts at 4.00 each....sweet.

Get to the checkout...total with shipping 168.00

Apparently...106.00 shipping...

fk that...

Home Depot, Lowes, Wal-Mart, etc...I got the best price from a local fire and sprinkler installation company. I had to buy about 30 for the company warehouse.
