Default Thermal Paste Free Shipping?

Do any stores off free shipping on TIM? I really don't want to pay more for shipping than I did for the thing itself, lol. I am guessing places that carry some PC stuff probably only carry crappy TIM, right? No OCZ Freeze, Tuniq TX-2, or AS5 at Best Buy?

Radio Shack has it locally, but it is equally expensive. I could send you a mini-tube of the stuff that came with my zalman 9500. Enough to do about 4 heatsinks.

I always try to make a point to add some to just about every order I place for other things. I hear ya that it is silly to pay $8 shipping for a $6 item, lol.

It's fragile and needs proper packing.

Thanks for all the quick replies. I have some Zalman and Xigmatek stock stuff, but I was really looking for something AS5 quality or better. I will check Radio Shack tonight, so thanks for that suggestion. I have my Phenom 2 coming in today, and I forgot that I finished off my AS5 reapplying my x1950XTX's stock HSF and installing my Xigmatek recently.

Order from a place, like Sidewinder or Petra's, that allows you to select first class mail.

Shipping wont be free, but for small things, like a few tubes of thermal grease, it should be around two dollars.
