Finding Fireworks in NC
 

Hey guys....
Was wondering if anyone here was from North Carolina and knew a way to get the "good" fireworks, like bottlerockets and cherry bombs n such..
Thanks

Bottlerockets are pretty easy.. drive over to TN. REAL cherry bombs, m-80s and the like are about as rare nowadays as a good presidential candidate. They were banned years ago and listed as class-3 explosives.

I live in georgia....Im not sure where in NC you are...but we always drive to Franklin to get ours, the woman that runs the place..if I remember right its called Glo's...always has some really cool stuff...actually its near Franklin...the town name is Otto

If you're coming from the clayton/dillard area of Georgia going north into NC its on the left hand side of the road.

Fortunately Im actually going to be in NC for the 4th this year so we didnt make our annual trip as usual, or I could be more specific

Eh, thats about a 5-6 hour trip.....I'm actually in Greensboro on vacation. I was looking to drive to South Carolina IF they have some good fireworks. The border is about 2 hours from here.

oh..well...you said NC thats why I posted about Otto....Cant recommend anywhere in SC....I havent ever been able to find good ones there, but I've only looked on I85 from the state line to Cowpens where my family lives

ahh i see, well thanks for the help

Come south down 85 to 77 through Charlotte and just across the SC border, near Carowinds Blvd is a multitude of huge, Wal-Mart sized fireworks stores. I go there every 4th to stock up.

Yeah, geez. I-85 in South Carolina is replete with big, tacky, red fireworks barns. I once blew out a tire just this side of the NC/SC border and limped on my doughnut to the first exit in SC. I had to go buy a tire, but I did notice a Big Ol Fireworks Barn right at that exit.

OK, thanks guys...I'm going to Carowinds Friday so I'll pick up then.
