I introduced my little brother and sisters to geocaching, and they are absolutely OBSESSED with it! The problem is that geocaching is just no fun when you have one GPS for multiple people. So, I'd like to get them each their own unit to use. I'm not looking for anything super fancy- just something that is in nice, working condition and will allow us to easily upload waypoints to it. I'd like to be able to buy 2 or 3 units. If you are upgrading or getting out of the hobby and have some older GPS units that you want to get rid of cheaply, please let me know! Thanks! Brandy, Kelsey, Noah and Emma

Many local libraries will have the die-cut machine that makes those paper shapes (if you are referring to the ones that are a few inches tall). Each shape/letter is just a wooden block with a metal strip bent into the shape you want. Then the "machine" holds the wooden block, you insert the paper underneath, and press the lever down. You could use the generic shapes or letters they usually have and then decorate them- write your team name on it, put stickers on it, etc.- or use neat paper (other than the typical colored construction paper) As I said, check with your local libraries- they have them for kids to use for posters and school projects... Hope that helps!

Are these units still for sale? I would be interested in taking a closer look... PM sent... -Brandy

Thanks for the tip! I'll look into that...

Just introduced my little brother and sister to geocaching, and they love it! The problem is, they fight over who gets to carry my gps, and when one of them has it I can't see where we are! So, I am looking to buy one or possibly two gps units CHEAPLY. I don't care much about which brand or features they have, as long as they work and I can load caches into them... I am also interested in finding a copy of the mapping software for Lowrance iFinder, so if anyone has it please let me know :-)
