Where might one purchase vetting tape?

Horrors! I find myself 'in the market' for some vetting tape. I've never bought any before and am not quite sure where it might be obtained. I shall try a hardware store first, but don't know if that will work. Has anyone bought some of this stuff before? Where might it be obtained?

Try a hardware store. A few weeks ago I got a couple of rolls at the hardware store at 6th and Kasold in Lawrence. If I remember correctly it was under $2 per roll. I don't know what hardware-store- types call it, but it ain't "vetting tape."

You want to go to a building goods/hardware type store and look for surveying tape, which is what it is usually referred to as.

You might as well just go right to the source, where all vetting tape in the world originates. Albertson's

I live just a block from an albertson's. I have to look at it almost every day. I can't say they'll be in business much longer though. Good things come to those who wait.
