I've been searching for grids, but where would they be in a store?

Home appliances, hardware, bathroom, ect. I just can't seem to find them!!!

I'm not too keen on buying online, so I would really like to be able to purchase them at a store. Does anybody know where they would be found?

I've always looked for them in home storage, as they were originally used as wire cube shelving. Hope I helped! :)

Ask someone at the stores. You're looking for wire storage cubes.

Also, if you are looking for ramps or covers, Target has some white CounterMaid covers and storage shelves to use as ramps. I got my cage from a lady off CL, and it came with one of those ramps. It is still sitting in our hallway unassembled, but I'll send you a picture of the finished cage! :)

It really is a hit-or- miss situation as there are several chain stores reputed to carry the grids, but not every store in that chain carries them. People find them at Target, WalMart, Bed, Bath & Beyond, K-Mart, and Sears. Go online and see if the chain carries them, then check the stores in your locale. Some chains will ship to your local store at no extra charge.

The only place I have found them in my area is at Sears. Be sure that the grids are 9 openings square. If the grid has less than 9 openings per side, then the openings may be large enough for body parts to get stuck, especially if your cavies are young. Target is infamous for carrying those grids.

Look in the Home Storage section for storage cubes as a general guideline.
sears and kmart do ship to store they dont keep them in the store

I see that they have Bed, Bath and Beyond in Pennsylvania. What I did was reserve the item online and did pick up at the store. They are good with that. They also have some good mattress pads if you're interested in making fleece liners. But that's another thread ;)
