Hi

im doing some hardware changes on my macbook....

but im missing the tools to do it...

i need a Spudger and a #00 screw driver..

does anyone know what store i can buys these at

i dont wanna wait for it online..i wanna go buy it today
 
Go to Lowe's or Home Depot and get yourself a nice set of mini screwdrivers for about $20 or less. I don't know where to get a spudger besides online (I got mine from Stanley).
 
I wouldn't bother buying a spudger, you don't need it to rip into a macbook. Harbor freight should have some small screw drivers.
 
You can also find thin metal "spudgers" at a laboratory supply shop if you have anything like that around you.

In my experience, a thin and broad flat head screw driver works just as well so long as you're gentle.
 
I recommend avoiding any metal spudger/blade in favor of plastic. You still have to be careful but plastic will lessen any potential damage.
 
Don't bother looking for a "spudger" in a store - nobody has any idea what you're talking about.

If you don't buy it online, just use a credit card or buy some guitar picks.

Extra heavy ones ;D

I take it you went into a store and felt a bit of a fool when you asked for a spudger? 😉
