Being from Canada fireworks are something I've had little exposure two but a couple weeks back seeing a friend light a bunch off I knew I had to get these. I only spent about $30. I really wanted a bunch of artillery setups and stuff but they ain't cheap.

And I did drive across two state lines and one time zone although the trip was only about one hour each way ;)

so where'd you drive to? Indiana? Ohio? I used to go when i was 16/17, but it's just a waste of money now. Besides, i'm happy with the Detroit fireworks that you can see in Windsor as well.

Where in Canada? Cause I never had any problems with that. :)

China town is the place to go for cheap illegal firework. ;)

I went from alabama to tennessee and briefly crossed into atlanta on the way into EST :)

ssp In nova scotia you can't even buy them and in new brunswick they are pathetic and barely worth using.

You drove an hour for that? If I'm going to Nevada to get fireworks, I'm getting stuff that will blow up watermelons. Coincidentally. Always say "no, I have no fruits or vegetables" at the border.

I love fireworks and blowing stuff up but I wouldn't make 2 hour roundtrip just for fireworks. If I were able to do some sight seeing or eat somewhere good then I suppose the trip would be worth it.

Don't blow off any fingers or other body parts.

I spent $185 this year on fireworks. It was worth every penny. I go to South Dakota to get mine.

Do you currently live in Nova Scotia? We buy fireworks every Halloween. Every other cornerstore sells them and there's a few places that sell fire crackers. But this is Cape Breton, so, you know... ;) LoL
