Hi Terry,
 The Helium for filling balloons that I mentioned comes in a box along with
some balloons and fittings. The cannister of helium looks identical in size
and shape to a freon cannister. ( like a small barbecue grill propane tank )
The valve even looks the same. I bought one for $17 on sale at a K-Mart.
 The local welding supply had a larger tank for $25 (also for blowing up
balloons) that I could use rent free for two weeks.
