Things to Keep in Mind When Buying Fireworks for the Fourth of JulyIf you're buying fireworks for the Fourth of July, you need to keep a few things in mind. First of all, inflated prices have impacted most consumer goods, including food and gasoline, and could affect the price of fireworks. According to Carson Anderson, president of California's TNT Fireworks, the price of Fourth of July fireworks will likely increase. However, if you are a thrifty shopper, there are many ways to save money.
Consumer fireworks can be purchased legally in most states. They must contain less than 50 mg of gunpowder, and must meet other safety regulations. Fireworks with a minimum of three seconds of burst duration are considered safe. If you plan to buy fireworks for a special occasion or event, be sure to research the safety of them before purchasing them. And be sure to have a water hose nearby if you need one. The National Council on Fireworks Safety has more information about safety regulations and tips for purchasing fireworks.
