I ran a marathon yesterday and ran the last 10 miles on a VERY messed up foot. It's all bruised up now and I cant walk on it.

Anyone know where I can score a pair of crutches to use for a few days? I'd rather buy than rent.

Any medical supply store.

I know that Ashworth's drug store in downtown Cary has all sorts of walkers and canes. They're bound to have crutches you could buy.

Prices... well... I dunno, walmart probably has them too.

Just knock over someone on crutches and take theirs

If I knew who you were I would say that Fareako has a set he isn't using.

But I don't.

^It's cool man. I have a coworker who has a set I can borrow, but was looking to buy a set if possible.

I seem to need them every few months for some reason or another

Also, for anyone reading, Walmart and Walgreens BOTH do not have crutches available in-store.

^negatory.

11/15/2010 9:02:44 PM

11/15/2010 9:04:17 PM

Thanks "captain obvious".

11/15/2010 9:05:04 PM

Good Will, seriously. There is one in Brier Creek. The one further down Glenwood, at Lynn Road, had like ten pairs when I was there last week.

hey you're the one who posted the thread. this shit isn't rocket science in the first place

^ true. i was gonna mention it but forgot about it

11/15/2010 9:08:59 PM

^i'm not trying to be a dick, but considering the fact that your first post in this thread was dead wrong, I'd venture to say that the answer to my question is tougher than one might think.

^^Thanks man, I might try there tomorrow.

in my own defense, i did put a question mark after the guess. my first answer one was the obvious one, a medical supply store, but the first response mentioned it.

nothing a couple phone calls can't take care of...and the medical supply store answer was pretty obvious imo
