I'm in the Atlanta area, and there are dozens of places here that carry media. Northern Tools, Harbor Freight, Tractor Supply Co., as well as many specialty stores. The place I get mine sells only blasting supplies, and they have maybe a hundred types of media. I've also gotten some from some of the major swap meets in various locales. I imagine shipping costs are sky-high for glass beads.

Thank you. I did a retail store search on Harbor Freight and found out one just opened 10 minutes from me! Thanks again.
