Tired, haven't slept good in days!!! I need an AC! Where can I find one?

My area code is 47102. I have been checking Wal-Mart the last few days, and Lowe's along with Home Depot. I can't find a 5,000 BTU A/C anywhere. They only have like 8,000, 12,000, and 18,000 units. I can't spend 200-300 bucks on one right now. I seen a 5,000 btu unit for $98.00 at one of my local Wal-Marts but it has been out of stock for the last few days...

Also I would rather drive an hour or 2 than spend an extra 100 bucks because my car gets pretty good gas mileage.

Please help.

Thanks

The cheapest one I can find now is at my local Lowe's, it's 195. Ugg and it's big enough to cool a room 3 times my room's size. I'm on vacation for the next 2 weeks hope I can find one...:shrug:

Have you tried any of your larger supermarkets or warehouse stores like Costco? In Massachusetts, some of our supermarkets carry the 5000 btu $100 units and my local Costco always has pallets of air conditioners. It may be worth calling around. Good luck.

try calling Sam's club perhaps they have some.

Craigslist is probably going to be your best bet for a cheapo unit.

Newegg has a couple of 5000 BTU units with free shipping:

Under $100 with analog controls

Digital controls, seems like a better unit, for under $160

Home Depot in Houston still got a lot of 5,000 BTU unit.

My AC went out last summer and I just asked arround at work (450 employees) and about 5 people offered to lend me one for free.
