Off line at WalMart. You can't beat $5.00, no shipping and you've got it right away. I use them on my flip builds and they're pretty good considering the low price. BTW I hate WalMart, but I'm no fool, a good deal is a good deal.

+1 If it's the Bell cable kit I get it at Sports Authority since it's closer than Walmart and down the street from the LBS. It's only in certain states. Great for flips.

I have used those myself in the past but have since have opted for bulk housing from Niagara and $0.56 universal cables and their lined housing at $0.16/foot.

Considering I need other stuff Walmart does not have anyway, the shipping is effectively free.
