    You can see the umbrella I bought from Ben’s Carts on the post about my setup. It is the 9′ red and yellow one. It is great quality and the universal red and yellow color of hot dog carts. I love mine!!

    Zumguteetz:
     
    Sam’s is probably stocking their patio umbrellas now or soon.  Maybe not your color choice but you can’t beat the price and they are really strong!  I think I paid $27 or something like that.  I bought two “just in case” because (1) it’s very windy where I’ve set up and (2) Sam’s doesn’t typically stock them year round.  When I say it gets windy, I’m talking forgetting to pin the pole down to the cart and the umbrella jets about 10 feet up and lands 20 feet away!
     
    On windy days I hook an appropriate length of bungee to a knot that I tie in the umbrella strap (whatever you call the piece with velcro that holds an umbrella closed after you close it…).  I position that side of the umbrella towards the wind – you have to build your nerve but it holds pretty darn good!
     
    So yeah – check the ones they sell at Sam’s.
