Another thing to watch, when i recently went to get some GFCI outlets,
all the ones at the store had a "safety feature" that said the outlet
was designed to not energize without proper grounding. Make sure you
check the box if you decide to go this route.

The one I just installed had the "safety feature", but it's just about
line/load connection reversal and has nothing to do with ground.
