Fireworks Go On Sale At Midnight

For those who are anxious to secure fireworks as soon as possible before the Fourth of July, Fireworks City opens its tent for business at midnight.

Location manager Mary Corbett said they are able to sell fireworks at the tent from June 20 through July 10. They offer products that originate from the Arnold, MO-based Fireworks City company.

She said she will feature new items tonight, as well as managers' specials.

"So many of our workers know what they're doing when it comes to fireworks, and they return to work the tent each year," said Corbett.

"The beauty is that we all know enough about our products to be able to help customers pick out which ones are best for their situations. For example, if you think you're going to set off fireworks where a lot of trees are involved, we know how high our fireworks go and can help you with which ones not to buy. Just ask any of us, and we'll be glad to help with selections."

The Fireworks City tent is located on Missouri Route 109, just south of Eureka, passed the Meramec bridge. The tent can be found just before the building, and before the intersection of Highways W and FF. It is approximately 2 miles from Interstate 44.

Fireworks City website states it has been in the fireworks business for more than 50 years. Coupons can be downloaded by clicking here.
