Solar powered christmas lights?? If so, where can I find them?

I would like to put Xmas lights on our driveway gate and entrance. Problem is, the gate is way, way away. The extension cord would be the mother of all extension cords to reach.

Maybe someone here has an idea?? :-)

You can get them from Amazon http://www.amazon.com/Solar-Powered-Multi-Christmas-Lights/dp/B000XQAPV0/ref=acc_glance_hi_ai_ps_t_1

Thanks for asking this question! We want to buy lights for our new house this year and I didn't even consider that there might be solar available. I will look into this.

Excuse the mess & the noise, my children are making happy memories

Big face palm moment for me... OF COURSE they've invented solar outdoor Christmas lights... I just never thought to look for them, silly me, too!

I saw them at Canadian Tire last year, but you should be able to find them at Walmart.

Due to driving a big rig all the time, I don't get out much. Now, that I have a real house, I'm getting caught up on all the cool things out there.

Next up, a fall wreath for our front door. I'm gonna make that puppy, already have the things for it. I don't like Halloween so going straight for Thanksgiving and Christmas!!
