Hi Lindsay,

When I was over in Kiwiland a few years back, I noticed that you've got a lot of the same chain stores that we have in Oz (dick smiths, harvey norman?, etc).

If you've got some of those $2 shops like clints, crazy prices etc. You know the ones that sell a lot of cheap crap from asia. You might try there. I buy most of my clamps, including spring clamps there for about $1 each. Most of their other tools aren't worth a damn tho.

Hope this helps

Paul
