Helium Tank for Baloons

Anyone have recommendation on where to get helium tank that would be cheaper (and actually will last in the baloon) other than Michaels or Party City?

It might be tough, there is a shortage of compressed gas tanks and helium was in short supply for the last couple years. Where are you located?

There has been a helium shortage. In my city, it's pretty Michaals, Party City, Walmart, and the really expensive local shop.

It is not the helium quality that makes balloons float longer. It is the balloon quality. Mylar balloons last a long time, but if they get lose, they are awful for the environment. Though, they are refillable and reusable for the future use (I used some balloon for 5 years of birthday parties). If you use the latex balloons, there is a sealant gel that professions use called 'Hi Float' A squirt in each balloon, rub around, and then inflate. The only bad thing is if you over fill the balloon and it explodes, it is a sticky mess.
On a 'smart' device that isn't always so smart. So please forgive the autocorrects and typos. If it bothers you, then don't read my posts, but don't waste my time correcting me. If you can get past the typos, then my posts generally have some value.
