Blu Fireworks FAQ
Q: What is this I hear about a bottle rocket ban?
This was due to an injury that happened due to a bottle rocket war.
This is a change that snuck through without very many people knowing about it.  Most retailers, including us,
will be working to overturn this new law. 

Q: Can I still buy bottle rockets?
A: The ban goes into effect in August 2009.  This will not affect bottle rocket sales this year.
But, unless the new rule gets overturned, you will not be able to purchase bottle rockets in North Dakota next year.

Q: I see some places where you can buy 1 and get 1 (or more) free. 
Do you do that?
A: No, we do not.  This is just a trick to get you to buy more than you planned on by overcharging you.  This is done
by jacking up the price to cover the price of the "free" one.  The next time you think you are getting a "great deal"
where you "got 1 free", you might want to do yourself a favor and check with us to see how little you could have paid
for the same thing.

Q: I like to get deals. Some places offer a discount all season long.  Do you do this?
A: No, we do not.  This is not really a discount, but instead is designed to get you to think it is a deal.
Think of it like this.  If you were told you could purchase a gumball for $20, but today you only had to pay a nickel
for it, would it be a deal?  Are you REALLY saving over $19 on that gumball even if the price of that gumball
is a nickel or less elsewhere?  The next time you think you got a "great deal" at a sale that lasts all season long
you might want to do yourself a favor and check the "discounted" price you paid, and compare it to what you could
have paid with us.  You will probably be pleasantly surprised at what we can do for you.

Q: I know some friends who have purchased fireworks off season in North Dakota before.  Why can't I buy from you off season?
Q: Can I get M80's, cherry bombs, and silver salutes?
Q: I know a guy who got some m80's several years ago.  They must have been legal then, right?
Q: Can you explain some fireworks terms to me?
Q: What is a fireworks club?  Can I join?

Q: What would be a good fireworks club to join?
A: There is a club in the Fargo ND area called Prairie Thunder Pyro, online at www.prairiethunderpyro.org which is a new club, there is a club in Wisconsin called Wisconsin Pyrotechnic Arts Guild, online at www.wpag.us, and there is an internation club called Pyrotechnic Guild International, online at www.pgi.org.  We are members of all of these clubs.  You could do a search for your state and the words "fireworks club" to find one closer to you.
Q: Do you sell fireworks T-shirts?
A: YES!  By popular request, we now sell T-shirts.  They can be purchased at our retail location, or online at
www.bluenterprises.biz


Q: What is the best firework?
A: That all depends on a person's personal taste.  Some like lots of color, some like lots of noise. Some have a favorite color or effect.  Stop by and we will help you get the best fireworks for you.
Q: What about quality?  Do you stand by your products?
A: Yes!  If you are not happy with a product you got from us, come talk to us.  We will do our best to make it right.
Q: I have a question about a firework that I bought somewhere else, but I can't remember where I got it.  Can you help me?
A: Yes!  Our staff is very knowledable about fireworks of all types. We will do our best to let you know how to use it, what it does, or anything else you want ot know about any firework item.  It does not matter if if came from us or not.
Q: I have been to other fireworks stores that have charged extra for punk.  Do you charge extra for punk?
A: No!  You get jumbo punks free with every purchase.
Q: I have heard about bottle rocket wars and roman candle wars.  What is that?
A: This involves a group of people who shoot fireworks at each other.  This is a very dangerous activity to be involved in.  It is activities like this that cause many fireworks injurys, and ultimately cause stricter laws to be enacted to protect people from themselves.

Q: Why was Blu Fireworks started?
A: We love fireworks, and we did not like the high prices that were being charged.  We figured that we could do it better, and help to drive the prices down for the customer.  We think that we have done that.
Q: What does blu stand for in blu fireworks?
A: It comes from combining our names (Brent and Luann), and we happen to like blue fireworks.
Q: Can you ship fireworks to me?  I live in _______ state/province.
A: No.  We are unable to ship fireworks at this time.  You must stop by our store between June 27 and July 5 to get fireworks from us.
Q: I have a question that is not answered here.
A: Email any questions / comments to info@blufireworks.net
