Another thread had this link where you can order them from overseas off ebay - free shipping. I ordered a couple yesterday to try. Keeping my fingers crossed!

It's good you did - this says Walmart's online site is out of stock.

Yea and the strange thing is though it did show some in stock within 16 miles of my local but for some reason wouldn't even list my home store at 16148 Hermitage as even showing up to switch to. It defaults to my work location "New Castle, PA" and will not let me find nor switch to see if my 16148 store has any in stock, blahhhh.

It shows that the store right on my way home has them in stock. I'm going to stop in after work & see if I can find them. If so, I'll pick up an extra and send it to you.

you might go back to the Walmart site and check to see if it's available in your local store. I just checked with mine and it said limited availability. I called to verify and they have 3 in stock, going to town to buy a couple even though I have already ordered some. It will just give me a couple extras to swap between. $2.97 ea. in store.

Ahh. you're too kind. Really you don't have to but I do appreciate it.

I could always call my local store and see if they have some. Might do that now. Good idea.

Edit: Blah, Tried to call my local store, the phone rang like 30 times until I got an answer and then the lady was transferring me over to the sporting goods dept and I sat on hold for 10 minutes with nobody picking up so finally just hung up.

Yea, I don't always trust this "Walmart Online" thingy where they say if or if not something is stock

Unfortunately, I don't usually have that much faith in their employees knowing either when you do call them.

Will probably be best to stop when I can and check myself.

I tried going to two Walmarts and neither had them. At least I know I have some on the way. Still, the stupid chinstrap drove me crazy last night slipping around on my head.

I have tried several mouthpieces including the Everlast in the links and even the custom-made Nosebreathe from that funny guy in Hawaii. I also bought one that cost $179.

In the end it was very uncomfortable to have any one of them in my mouth for any length of time. A full face mask is so convenient and comfortable and I know it works.

If you can sleep all night with one of those mouthpieces in place then kudos to you.

I recently purchased 3 double mouth guards from Century Martial Arts. The shipping was $9.90, which is ridiculous! That's why I purchased 3. I was told that with a boil and bite mouthguard you sometimes need to try more than once.

I have been using a chin strap (Puresome Ruby) for a month. When I received the mouthguard, I switched to using it. It worked great! After a week, I tried to go without anything and now I am able to keep my mouth closed!

So, I have 2 unused double mouthguards. They cost $3.99 each. I'll sell both of them for $12 which would include shipping. Please PM me if you are interested.

I am a avid mouth breather. A full face mask didn't work well for me. I find the nasal mask most comfortable, but even with a chin strap I still end up breathingthrough my clenched teeth. I saw a mask advertised on my email website (Genghis Kahn or something like that), but didn't write the address. It covers the mouth as well as the chin, but was pretty expensive. Does the double mouthguard keep you from breathing through your mouth? I'm still pretty new at this as well.
