Default Discounted Online OEM parts - suggestons?

Hi, I need to purchase a bunch of misc fasteners for an 05 Prairie. As you may know, these parts can be quite expensive, e.g. $3.50 for one small bolt!

Does anyone know of an online place that sells OEM for a discount?

thanks

Default God was with me yesterday

Took my brand new 2009 Prairie 360 on its maiden voyage yesterday. I thought I smelled something "funny" but wrote it off as cleaner that probably got on the exhaust.

My 7 yr old daughter, following behind on a Grizzly 125, noticed a fire.
Pulled over and the there was orange flame, right below the fuel tank.
I thought the thing was going to be totaled, as I frantically tried blowing out the fire. Unbelievably, there was a small pool of muddy water about 20 feet away. Using our helmets, we were able to douse the flames. I discovered that I left a gas laden rag below the fuel tap.

The only damage was a $13 fuel tap and it melted the insulation off the Warn winch wires.

I am going to Home Depot today and purchase a small fire extinguisher, to carry with me.

A lot of the online places sell fastener kits reasonably. For bolts and nuts, etc, look around your local area. Seems like just about every city has at least one place that has tons of the metal hardware much cheaper than oem. I try to get a little extra whenever I need something and then just throw it in a little kit for emergencies.
