Well, yes and no. I picked up a big load of the old style colored lights at a yard sale for scrap price. I think I paid $3 for maybe 12 strands of those old lights. We used to use the little newer style (the little tiny pointed ones that if one bulb goes, the whole line is shot). They are actually hung around the back area of our patio and hooked to a dimmer. We use them to light our fireplace patio when we have fires and adult beverages.
