Carboys for christmas

[brewsochist]

Looking to buy some carboys for Christmas gifts wanna know where the cheapest place to get one is. Also long digital thermometers to temp the wort and must. I live in Springfield Illinois if that makes a difference (because of shipping)

This close to christmas you are going to have to buy local, or pay through the nose big time on shipping.

Carboys how I hate thee, let me count the ways...
Sorry, after breaking multiple carboys and loathing the cleaning of carboys, heavy as hell, pain to rack, I went to conicals.
Conicals took up way too much space so I went to food grade bucket with a spout. Inexpensive, light weight, easy too clean, fit in a compact space, do not require covering to avoid light struck, cheap to replace. I won't go back.
