Except it's a $5 product, I don't wan't to pay 400% markup on what is essentially a SMALL can of butane.

Yeeeeah. So, they don't actually ship them, and my REI literally has bare shelves when it comes to fuel canisters. they told me they get shipments on Tuesdays and Thursdays, so I'll call back later this week.


But I did EVENTUALLY manage to find one of the medium size cans of this brand at a Big 5 Sporting Goods store...The problem is, only the small 100g can will nest inside my cooking pot...I'm going for as compact as possible, since it's going to be for bikepacking

I thought REI would let you ship it to your local store for pick up?

Beat me to it!

That would be all well and good, but I cann't find a "ship to store" option, can you? And when I just add to my cart, this is the message I receive when I try to check out...


Error:MSR IsoPro Fuel Canister - 3.9 oz. / 110g is no longer available at Woodland Hills. To continue, change your store pickup location or select “ship” for delivery.

LOL...No offense everyone, but it's not like REI wasn't the first place I checked or anything...lol. Both in-store AND online...First place I checked

Even tried different brands, as if for some reason they'd stop carrying the MSR brand... :rolleyes: And different REI locations...



Error:Jetboil Jetpower Fuel - 3.53 oz. / 100g is no longer available at Santa Monica. To continue, change your store pickup location or select “ship” for delivery.

Imagine barely being able to hear the TV (with a fan running) when your 25 year old daughter comes upstairs and tells you to turn it down because she's studying for her LSAT.

How would you react?


My reply - "why don't you just wear headphones? You know, like normal people do..."

My wife is not happy. :twisted:
