I just got my first pair of wicks and my friend I spin with told me to pick up some Coleman fuel at Walmart. The problem is that Walmart is the Devil and I don't like to give them my money. A quick trip there, last night, only confirmed this for me (and also my boyfriend who stopped shopping there at my insistance, and now is glad that he did).
I tried Target first, and they do not carry it, so I was wondering where people buy their fuel?

I buy mine at Academy (probably only a TX store). Anyway, it's a sporting goods store, and the camp fuel is found in the camping section. Maybe you have something like that in Tennessee? I agree that Wal-mart is a horrid store to enter.

It's usually pretty easy to find coleman fuel/white gas at any local hardware store. You might have to look for it though, employees never seem to know what I'm talking about.

Safeway carries it I believe, which is a drug store, similar to Longs (which has it sometimes as well). First check a hardware/camping store, as that is what the fuel is made for, camping.
