My local NSP..(WASUA. they're champs) stock 0.8 micron and 0.22 micron wheel filters at $1.50 a pop. Not bad.
But i find Queensland to be the best state for getting fitted out. The ones I've been to over there just give you everything you ask for..totally free. no exchange required. They even have afterhours fit pack machines that only need a gold coin donation. Much better than our 24 hour chemist over here gouging $15 for a couple of pins and 4mls of water. That price makes it a lot easier for people to justify using a dirty or god forbid..sharing...(just incase you're reading this WA Govt, your needle exchange strategy needs to be taken out of the hands of profiteering chemists)
So Like Dead, just go to your local NSP and ask for wheel filters. Depending on what state you live in they shouldn't be more than $2 (and if you're a lucky enuf to be a bannana bender then FREE). There are quite a few exchanges around, even in regional areas. If you live somewhere really remote there's still a chance that a mobile fit van visits a town within acceptable driving distance.
Get involved. These organisations are there to help you. They are understanding and won't judge. Some are even run by users...On one of my visits to the local exchange I swear the nice middle aged lady behind the counter was nodding out.
