    So do we have to print this out to get the deal? Do we need multiple coupons to cash in more than once?

    EDIT: Actually, these are cheaper from Monoprice if you plan to put in an order already or get a large quantity. ($1.06 for 100@8" in six colors) http://www.monoprice.com/products/su...05&cp_id=10520

    I just ordered 10,000 4" zip ties from monoprice. Cost me $32 with next day delivery. Think that will last me a while?

    Hmmmm..... Seriously, how do the Monoprice zip ties stand up to UV? The NM / AZ sun fries non-UV resistant ties in a few weeks.

    Just hold a zip tie out in the sun for a few weeks and see which one of you lasts longer. Lol
