Has anyone seen legal places in the Phoenix area to buy fireworks yet?

Need to prep for that new year.

Saw a huge outdoor parking lot tent sale down by the San Tan village shopping center in Gilbert off the 202 and Williams Field.  I didn't stop to look but it seemed they had a LOT of stuff.

Out in Goodyear I saw a Black Cat tent at the SEC of Pebble Creek Parkway and McDowell. Also saw a Phantom Fireworks tent at the NEC of the same intersection.

With the recent murder of Agent Terry, the port is beefed up. So dont cross over and bring that shit, they might enforce the fine. Usually theyd seize and destroy (play with out back) but you never know.

There's a pop up tent at the Fiesta Mall, Alma School/Southern - it's on Alma School - west side of the road - just north of the freeway.

All I really wanted was some roman candles, I was told today they are still not allowed in the state. Bought about eight boxes of sparklers, and meh, they blow.

I have orered  in 150lbs should be here next week.  



Sadly almost all are sold.



I will be ordering in a "bunch" for the 4th.  



I have to order a case of whatever i want.  Shipping is expensive.  But i can still sell the stuff for cheaper than the tents do.

Instead of going all the way to NM, just come up to Bullhead City. The Indian Reservation  gas station / 'smoke shop' less than 10 minutes south of the city has everything you could want.


Shit, they've got assortment packs there that take two guys to pick up and move. Just bring stacks of cash to feed your wants!

Just keep in mind that using them in Phoenix city limits is now a Class 1 Misdemeanor (the most severe class).  6 months in jail and $2500 fine.  Light a sparkler in your back yard, and you face the same penalty as a guy who flashes his cock at your 15 year old daughter.

Just know what you're up against.

Fireworks stand at Highland and 18th street.



All they had were a bunch of different kinds of fountains, though. Nothing that goes boom.

I know, it's silly.  But oh well.

I was thinking about fireworks being illegal to use in Phoenix.  How exactly would they prosecute that?  If someone lights fireworks in my backyard (there's 4 people living here that could do it), who are they going to arrest if no one admits to lighting them?  How are they going to convict me if when I get to court (if they arrested me) and I say I didn't light them, they ask the arresting officer and he says "I didn't see who lit them"?

that is a good question.  I imagine they would try and pin the homeowner as it was fireworks lit on your property with your permission.

First, my wife and I are co-owners of the house.  Which one gets arrested?  Or do both?  Second:

Me: I didn't give permission.  I didn't even know it was happening, your honor.  
My Attorney:  Officer X, did you witness anyone lighting fireworks?  
Officer X:  No.  I was just responding to a report.

I believe it is just fines.  Probably a situation where they write you a 100 dollar ticket and hope you don't fight it like so many other things.

I'm curious.....what department area are they in? And did you by any chance notice if the prices were any cheaper than the outdoor stands?

They have them right as you walk in through the front doors.  They're in different sized packs, $10, $19, etc. and up. I got one of the $10 packs and it had some pretty neat fountains and stuff in it.  Not sure how they compare to the stands because I haven't seen one here yet.

I dont get it. I live here in Surprise and see them for sale even at the local grocery store. There arent any fire cracker per say, just basically the little fountain type things that shoot sparks and whistle and whatnot. My wife bought me a bunch for Christmas. Im I not allowed to use these?? She said she got a little fun pack deal at walmart for 10 bucks.
