Default Carabiner clips?

Anyone know where I can get a carabiner clip like the one below? Need the exact colour, as well (orange). I know MEC would, but the parking around there sucks.

Any other places CP can recommend?

Spoiler for size. On my cell.

Spoiler!

I think, but am not sure, that you could pick something like that up at Atmosphere.

Try Atmosphere. The selection isn't a good as MEC (I'm betting you end up there anyway) but they have several locations.

Parking at MEC sucks? They have their own lot! Also tons of street parking available which is free on weekends

What is the intended use of the carabiner?

Good point. It's been years since I was there last.

Nothing major. The case that I carry my ear buds in came with one, but I broke it. Oops.

Campers village?

Home Depot might have carabiners as well.

If you aren't climbing, you don't need ones made for climbing. Just go the Home Depot, or Canadian Tire.

I honestly didn't think those places would carry them. I'll have a look.

Thanks!

Save your time and just go to MEC. I bought one that looks identical to that pic last year (that orange). They've get about a half dozen different sizes/styles of non-climbing carabiners.
Sure HD, Canadian Tire, hell even a dollar store might have them, but why go to 2-3 stores when you know one has it for sure? (assuming you're not too far out)

MEC parking lot grinds my gears. I'm not paying a dollar or whatever it is. I own shares in this pinko company (via my membership), and I'm using my parking lot.

On top of that I don't think they enforce the payment, which just makes them seem wussy.

You'd prefer to make a free park and ride?

They do it so people like me who work across the street don't park in their spots all day. They mostly patrol the lot before the store opens if you are parked there you are towed. Sometimes throughout the day they write tickets as well

Just hang around the payment box long enough and some good Samaritan will come by and give you their lucky, golden, $1 ticket. A great deal either way! Don't forget to recycle your ticket to someone else as you leave.....
