And funny story, guys. Just shows you I am a nerd and in this situation, it saved me some money. When I went to Lowes to buy a blacklight flashlight, they had two brands. One box had this huge picture of a scorpion and was labeled "scorpion flashlight!" Totally empty. Sold out. At first I was bummed. Then right next to that box, two other boxes of unassuming looking flashlights that were generically labeled "ultra violet flashlights". Not one missing in the box. I know this because they had slots for each package. Now, the scorpion flashlights were $20 and these generic ultraviolet light ones were $10. I sat there for a second questioning myself because I was shocked that about 50 of the generic but basically the same flashlight for $10 cheaper. I bought two of the generic. The power of marketing to stupid people. You can charge twice as much for the same thing!
