    Where to buy this equipment

    2 Oscilloscope Probes
    6 Banana - Banana Leads
    2 Pairs Banana - Alligator Leads
    1 BNC – Alligator Leads
    1 Digital Multi-meter and Probes (have)
    1 Soldering Iron (don't need)
    1 Soldering Stand
    1 De-Soldering Tool
    1 Tube Rosin Core Solder
    1 IC Extractor
    1 Component Storage Box
    1 2-in1 Ceramic Trimmer Tool
    1 5” Side Cutter
    1 5.3” Long-Nose Pliers
    3 Phillips Screwdrivers ( 1 each: 0x2.95”, 1x2.95”, 2x3.94”)
    3 Slotted Screwdrivers (1 each: 0.12x2.95”, 0.2x2.95”, 0.24x3.94”)
    1 Breadboard (1580 holes)
    1 Box Assorted Breadboard Jumper Wires
    1 Tool Bag with Shoulder Strap ( don't really need)

    I need this stuff for my engineering lab, I could buy it from the uni for 175 but I have most of the expensive stuff but I really don't want to give them any more money. They send me this email yesterday saying I need all this stuff for Wednesday. >_< I have a Digital Multi-meter and my roommate will lend me his soldering iron until I can get my nice one from home. Buy I'm not too sure where to buy this stuff. I want some place online that has either next day or 2 day shipping because I am going to need it by this Wednesday.

    Could you guys recommend a good online store to buy this stuff from? I can also pick some of this stuff up from store around here like the screwdrivers but I don't think I can get oscilloscope probes from radioshack...

    Sometimes I use this, sometimes I use Maplin. Maplin has a local shop, whereas CPC (though it has a much greater variety) is mainly web/catalogue based.

    Thanks guys, I'm going to see what I can buy locally and then I'll order what can't get.
