This is mostly a "heads up" to Canadian teams that I found pool noodles on for $0.44 at my local "Real Canadian Superstore". (That's a big grocery place, kind of like a Fred Meyer in the USA for those unfamiliar with it. Apparently the name is intended to differentiate it from all those Fake Canadian Superstores that plague our nation.)

Sure... we don't know whether they will be required next year, but they are always good for whacking people with even if you don't need them for bumper material, and they can be darn hard to find during build season.

If you spend a few bucks now, that might be one less stress in February. Buy enough that you can give some to a local rookie team when they call you up in the last week asking "what are these bumper things?" and they'll love you forever. Where else can you get that kind of adulation for forty-four cents?
