Colored-flame birthday candles?

Hey denizens -- anyone know where in the area I can find colored-flame birthday candles? This is a lazybones question; I'll check out the usual funky haunts if I don't get anything here. But if you *know* of such a place, I'd love to hear about it.

I have a car, so can drive to it even if it's not in Davis Sq. Thanks!

thinkgeek at least had them (I've not tried to kook it up yet).

where are they located?

but the OP asked where to buy it locally, within driving distance.

This strikes me as the kind of thing iParty might sell, but I've never actually been to any of their stores. The closest one to here is in the Meadow Glen Mall in Medford. Give them a call and ask. (Their web site does not contain any list of merchandise.)

ETA: maybe also try Paper & More Party Goods in Arlington? Call before making a trip out there.

I've gotten them at the Christmas Tree Shop and Marshalls, although not recently for either.

I may have some in my kitchen drawer if you don't find any - I'm pretty sure they're usually in stock at Michael's, though.

Hidden Sweets in Harvard Square DEFINITELY had them an hour ago.
