Finger Lights at Walmart. Blue Led, various different body colors. $1.82 without tax.

Found the finger lights by the Halloween Costumes.

I would get one if I could think of a use for it. At $1.82 you wonder how could they could make a profit.

I bet they use some odd size cell that makes feeding time cost more then buying a new light, basically turning this into a disposable unless you find on online dealing selling the batteries at a cheap bulk rate.

This address is plastered all over the WWW, so I do not mind posting it here. :thumbsup:

Hmmm, $1.82 is certainly a profit making price, but not much..

probably uses LR44 or its thinner cousin.. I can get those batteries 8-10 of them for about $1 or so around here. The blue LED isn't my thing but it may not be hard to swap out for a white one.

My brother has one. It puts out a surprisingly bright but very blue and "ringy" beam. Pretty cool little light though. Reminds me of the very first led light I ever saw; the nighthawk or something. It was an amber led fingerlight used by the airforce or something. Ahhh memories.... :candle:

LR1130 is an AG10 or LR54... I can get those at dollar tree and other dollar stores for 8/1.00.

Thanks for the heads up. I love lights like these for the grandkids. Been giving them different colored light sticks for the past two years. They'll appreciate something different.

I went looking for them today at my local Wal-Mart. I checked up and down the Halloween aisles a couple of times but couldn't find them. I did see a few empty slots in the display aisles, so perhaps they've sold out of them already.

I found the Finger Lights hanging in a display box at the very end of an aisle.

Go to the Halloween section and ask a clerk if you can't find them...he knew exactly the end cap they where on.

Also they were sittin on the express register also.
