example - Elixir nanoweb custom lights online most places $12.99 plus shipping and handling
local music shop- same strings 10.95 + tax ( have seen them from 10.95 to 12.00 even locally)
when buying strings, think of the way you play your axe, if you are into heavy metal and thrashing the strings, then buying cheap strings would prob be better, if you are into country, blues, classical stuff then a more expensive brand like Elixir nanoweb will save you money in the long run.......
for you rockers try them Gibson Britewires I mentioned earlier, they should be cheap and see what you think of them......
