Anyone seen any or having the problems I am? I have been to countless stores and nobody has them. All these stupid "Christmas Light Installers" have been buying them all. It was like this last year also.

You might try some of the small Ace Hardware stores around town. Some sell some unique Christmas light assortments.
It is now closed but one in Pasadena used to sell C-9 in solid color assortments.

Thanks, that is a good idea. I need some places like that which are not obivous places to go.
I got mine from Hobby Lobby a few years back.
The Target in Tomball had some today but that's probably really far from you.
My dad went everywhere looking for replacement strands of C9s last year and couldn't find them anywhere. I was living in B-CS at the time and found about 2 dozen boxes of them at the Bryan HEB for a great price. Keep that in mind if you're ever going up there. It's unreal how hard it is to find clear C9s.

No kidding. Then these freaking "installers" want to charge you an insane amount of money. I checked every kind of store around and luckily found some at Ace today. Got the last 4 boxes. That suggestion really worked out for me.
WalGreens of all places had a bunch
I got mine at the Ace Hardware at Memorial (b/t Dairy Ashford & Kirkwood).
Use colored lights. Easier to find and less boring that way!
I saw some at Houston Garden Center.
I've also seen the replacement bulbs at CVS, but not the full string sets. Target/Walmarts seem to have gotten a new shipment this weekend.
If you can wait a few days for shipping, try online....www.christmaslightsetc.com

I actually saw some here as well. the only difference was that they were C9 1/4 instead of C9. I decided not to get them since I wasn't sure how easy it would be to find replacement bulbs since no other major store has this kind. Plus they didn't fit in the stakes as well as the regular C9s.
kroger sells them as well.
Dunvale Walmart had some yesterday. Good luck and wear your vest.
I'm sorry.....they're all on my house.
I'm also sorry about the dimming effects you get when I turn on all the lights.

Nice

May I ask why the "G" was capitalized?
