Doing a little wiring on my boat and needed about 4-6' #16 stranded copper red and black. Knowing Ace Hardware is a little high in their prices but close to home I went there. They didn't have a bulk roll of #16 so I bought 2 24'rolls at $8.69 each, thinking that seemed kind of high. I'm in a hurry right! Just got back from Blaine's, 28' of #16' of stranded copper ...$3.69 EACH ACE IS NOT THE PLACE ! Now, there's your lesson for the day.
