any deals/sales on bulk tubes

i've had a rash of flats lately, so much so that i just bought a bulk order of patches, but i need to restock the workbench with tubes - any good deals on 10-packs or something?

pricepoint used to be king of this and i just used up the last of my pricepoint tube supply, but they are no longer in business.

Bike Tires Direct (a sponsor no less) does quantity discounts on tubes.

Do you enjoy patching tubes? I'll send you a dozen for postage.

thanks colonel, but i have about a dozen ready to patch already!

i dont particularly enjoy patching them, but it does seem wasteful to me to just toss them, so one winter evening, when the weather is miserable, i'll pour a tall glass of single malt and patch away.

$3.30 a tube is pretty good these days.

I just bout a single for $8 from my lbs on the way home to stick in my jersey wallet.
