Where can I get a temp gun???

Without having to go online. I've tried Home Depot, a car parts store, I don't know where else to look. I looked on bigappleherps.com or whatever the url is but it's like $40, plus shipping, plus time. I was hoping to just pick one up somewhere...

What about a pet store or do you have a reptile store out there?

Re: Where can I get a temp gun???

We have a Petco, but in all the times I've been in there, I've not seen one. Perhaps I'll call the other local pet stores, just in case.

Re: Where can I get a temp gun???

I've tried the autoparts stores near me and they don't have any. Auto Zone, Advanced Auto, Napa, none had them or had any clue what I was talking about. Well except for one guy who suggested a hobby store.

I've also tried Radioshack a couple years ago and they didn't know what I was talking about either.

Actually, I got it at Consumer Auto Parts cuz I happened to see them behind the counter. They had a 70 dollar one and a 27 dollar one. I got the cheaper and it works well, but you gotta get close.

I was going to get one at radioshack though.

Almost all of those places have online stores that will tell you if your local place has it in stock. I know that Advance auto will let you buy online and pick up instore the next day if not available so you don't have to pay shipping.

Re: Where can I get a temp gun???

SO just did a search on Advanced Auto, Auto Zone and Napa's websites and couldn't find anything about temperature guns. I tried temperature, temp gun, infrared, infrared temp gun, and no hits for a temp gun. I must be missing something here...

When I went in to these places a few months ago and asked if they had temperature guns and then described them I got blank stares. Except for one guy at Advanced Auto who knew what I was talking about and suggested I look at a hobby store. Maybe because I'm in FL they don't need temp guns at auto stores because you just assume the temp is going to be hot...

Re: Where can I get a temp gun???

RadioShack.com
halfway down page, click on item and enter zip code. Pretty sure you'll find a radio shack nearby.

Re: Where can I get a temp gun???

Sounds like you are dealing with some uneducated people, I would buy online since none of the stores seem to help. We bought ours online.
