I picked up a set from our local field Day. From one of the “Chesp Import” tool mobs that set up. I think I paid about $12 for an alphabet set. They also had numbers as well.
hope this helps

replied to the topic self sufficientcy with 15 acres? – Can it be done? in the forum Living within your means 10 years, 1 month ago
I find these discussions really interesting, but was wondering where everyone is? We have 25 acres but only 9″ rainfall each year(except this year when it has rained all summer) Do you live in high rainfall areas? It would be great if under peoples picture it could list their region. I am doubtful we could run enough stock without supplementing…[Read more]

According to SIL who was in marketing for a major car company high octane is only really worth it in a high performance car.
Our Prado cost more to run on the cheaper 95 type unleaded if thats any help.
