anyone in MT?
 
Just curious... because it appears as though my (canuck) ISP will not allow me to find this;
I am curious about getting some 225/40R18 tires;
We are going to be state-side at the end of the week;

Even though the currency exchange is HORRENDEOUS right now (last I looked it was a little over fourty-percent);
I have typically observed that there are much better deals to be had with a great deal of product's state-side.

QUESTION:

1) Assuming that I AM seeing an ISP block, can someoen tell me what my cost/options are?
1b) If this is an ISP block, could we take it a step further to see if the Great Falls supercenter (the new one on the east end of the city) has any tires in this size available?

2) If I am NOT seeing an ISP issue*, maybe someone on their next walmart visit (in any MT location) can record what the cost/options are?
* = because walmart's sites appear to be iffy at the best of times

(thanks in advance to anyone who might be able to offer help)

In the meantime, I'm going to go through pictures I took on recent state-side jaunts, to see when I last recorded costing for tires this size.

Incase it matters, my anniversary is June 28th;
A handful of years ago (once our kids got old enough) we started doing a state-side "anniversary" trip, and stayed state-side to take in Independence Day celebrations;

I love the United States, and as much as I'd love to live there, at this time, my lot has me "stuck" in Canada...

I actually generally celebrate 'Canada Day' (July 1st) by being IN the United States on Canada day ;)

Best I can do, but I am not in MT. May want to reach out to a Walmart there to check stock.

Ranging from 60-320. Didn't think that you may not be able to access that link.

Nevermind. I didn't read you were looking at a stock check specifically. Reading is hard.

You should subscribe to a VPN, then you can pick where your IP address is originating from to avoid being blocked.

coming back to this now that my slightly hectic first week post-holidays is through;

thanks to everyone who offered assistance.

I was most assuredly getting some sort of a ISP block;
My first night in a hotel in MT I was able to load up information;
The next day I went to a WM-Auto section and saw that only one the option was in stock, and most certainly not the super deal that I was able to load on my phone the night prior.

VPN is something I have been tempted to look into further - thanks for the tip.
