    Try walmart. i saw some at out walmart.
  • Erica I've seen them just about everywhere. Since you live in NC they should have them before us here further south. Tell you what I am planning on doing - You can get pumpkins at the dollar store or at and organic type of food store (expensive there). I will be painting mine white and any other color to match décor. While paint is wet sprinkle a little glitter on them for some bling. Stencil your initials on it or words, boo, happy harvest etc. Do something different so you are a trend maker on your block - Post a picture is you do something different, would love to see what you come up with.

    • @Erica Sharpe Now you are thinking out of the box! Look forward to seeing the end results. Also frog tape has different designs. You can paint put on let's say chevron and then do another color if you wanted to do graphic.

    Try Lowe's garden and home improvement or you can purchase a punkin and paint it white.

      @Brenda Schrieber I'm going to try Lowe's too. I usually avoid Lowe's because they're always more expensive, but I will buy them there if no where else.

    Look in your grocery stores also.

    Do you have any farms nearby? Or farmer's markets? They should have them and lots of other fall decorating items like gourds, cornstalks etc. BTW, the white ones are also very good for baking.

    @Erica just buy any pumpkin and paint it. To the best of my knowledge, there is no such thing as a natural white pumpkin. They are painted. It seems to be a fad these days.

    This time of year there are quite a few street fares where local farmers send pumpkins for sale. They may be cheaper than in the supermarket.

    @ Sherry Forbes Findlay. There are many shades or pumpkins including white and greenish white. Not painted at all!

    Hi Erica, I was thinking that you could always paint one white and add some of your own flare to it! Good luck, hope you get your white pumpkin
