Where can I find

Where can I find a really cheap case? (or maybe even a free case)

I am think of going to some local yard sales

I dont need a perticularly new case, I just need one as a practice case for using a dremel and painting.

I'd say your local "Recyle Centre" !!! Got lucky there a few times..

You can go to Newegg...i think their cheapest case is 15 or 17 dollars....but of course there's no quality. I would say to check local computer shops and ask them where you could find some.

If you have a "MicroCenter" nearby, I have picked up decent cases with power supplies for under 25$ (Throw away the power supply though!)

If you buy online, the shiping can be more than the case itself..be carefull!

Got a Fry's or similar nearby? I would imagine they have similar deals.

Salvation Amy is another option.

Tag Sales. Im betting you people will have computers for cheap there. I got a whole lot of AT comps for 7 bucks (OH plus a laser printer and a 15 inch monitor).

craigslist.com

Just find your area and look under "free". The other day I saw some guy in my area was offering 7 free cases to anyone who wanted them, or else he was just gunna take them to the dump. Speaking of which, I once was friends with a guy that worked at a dump, and that place is a gold mine for old computers (and more importantly cases).
