apartment livingPosted Date: : Dec 9, 2007 11:05 PMFuses are not an easy thing to find in the city.
First off, don't try to use a hair drier when a space heater is plugged into the same outlet.
My search for a 15 amp fuse started at Walgreens and moved to CVS on Brady. Then because of a tip the search moved to Clark on Prospect. They had 30's, but no 15's. Another tip sent me to Open Pantry - no fuses. Finally at Patry 61 (the gas station on North and Humbolt) I found some 20's. I bought them, but called the electrician brother to make sure I wouldn't blow up my domicile. Turns out it's okay, but I can blow the lines if I plug too much in again, so he said I should probably go and find 15's (he knows me too well ;)
I stopped at the former Jewel-Osco, now Pick n' Save off North, but alas, they too were fuseless.
MotB - don't plug too many things in the wall when you live in an ancient apartment.
OH - Madden awarded the Horse Trailer to BOB tonight. Even though I think Gary Brackett deserved it more - GO BOB! GO COLTS!! Good night
