Tie downs I can borrow?

Wondering if anyone has trailer tie downs I can borrow. Got a trailer to tow a car this weekend (see my other thread) but no one has told me if we have tie downs. Would be able to pick them up from you today or tomorrow after 6 pm. Or buy them if the price is reasonable.

Help a brotha out.

EDIT:

I mean point me to somewhere like a store where I can buy them. Not trying to WTB outside of the for sale section.

Walmart sells ratchiting straps in the automotive/trailer area.

Buy em. Return em. Done.

Thanks. I'll go check em out on lunch at work. Sorry to sound like a n00b, but do they come in like a set? I've never loaded a trailer with a car before.

Yeah, they sell the smaller ones in packs of 4, and there's also larger ones there. I'd say you need 2-3 depending on which strap you use, and how hardcore you wanna be about it.

Yeah they come in sets from two all the way to eight I think

Thanks guys. Sucks cuz I haven't seen the trailer yet so I'm trying to think ahead (cuz no one else helping me is).
