Some of the places I've seen online offer free shipping/discounts with orders $2500 or more, which I would have no problem meeting. I'm going to try the local box stores like Menards/Lowes/Home Dept and then a local hardware store about 3 miles down the road to try to get a wholesale price.

If you can get the free shipping then I would go that route, but, as others have pointed out (blueface) make sure you know what your buying. No need to come home to a fence embedded into your house Good call on checking out the local retailers first. If they dont cut you a deal ask them who they buy from and give the wholesaler a call. With that large of an order I bet a wholesaler would be willing to do business with you. Best of luck to you.
