I've found that by watching the sales, I can usually get 100 count strands
of lights for around $2.50. I buy 2-4 boxes almost every year and don't
bother messing more than a few minutes if a strand won't light. It's just
not worth the hassle.

For one who has the time but is low on funds ... how does one fix those
strings of Christmas tree / colored lights that have the bulbs in series -
presumably, if one bulb blows they all get knocked out? I have a
multimeter
and several non-working strings (so hopefully there are plenty of spare
light bulbs).

Suggestions?

Thanks,

Henry
