So, how much did you spend on fireworks this year?

Bamm-o · 07-04-2007, 04:44 PM

me, I went all out on my recycled aluminum money. bought $188 worth of fireworks this year. I guestimate, I have over 3000 in fireworks to light. (including every little bottle rocket) got about 10 mortors (light em once mortors) and over 18 mortor shells to light aswell

and alot of other things.

How much did you spend?

ohyeah. Happy 4th of July!!!!!!!

ZERO.
I'll let others spend thier loot, and watch from a distance.
Take the money I would have spent and buy something RC releated.

Drove to PA from NJ to get fireworks this year. Now, I just have to light them off without the cops finding out... Yup, they're illegal in NJ

Vegas is no fun.........I spent $40 bucks and got crap. Its too hot/dry/illegal for them out here.

I miss ole Shreveport LA.....for $40 I got like 2 grocery bags full of the "good" stuff.

And I got kids and know the real reasons to celebrate the 4th so I spend a little every year to celebrate my familys and mine freedom!

I'm with Sleep. No need to spend money on them. I'd rather buy a prop or something for my plane.

Horsetrader_12345 · 07-04-2007, 05:27 PM

$200 & came home with 4 bags full. I remember when $40 would by that same amount.

SleepyC · 07-04-2007, 07:48 PM

MAN... $200.. That is a 4.5" TT spinner and a prop!!

I'd dedicate the spinner and prop to the Good Ol USA, and honor it every time I flew!!

MAN $200 clams up in smoke!

Oh well.. some guys got it like that I guess!

The only money I spent on fireworks this year is what I put in for the fireworks at the Huckfest.

I'm like Sleepy, What I would have spent on fireworks is going to be going into the hobby. I have a few projects in the works and a couple more planned.
