    Staples and Office Depot is a no go, checked there already. My best bet is to some how find a store that gets them with shipments, so I don't have to spend 120 on a joke( Although it will be good)

    We had this at work, expanding foam stuff...you spray it in and it puffs up like 30X its size as dried foam. Was pretty cool I'll try to find out where we got it.

    I think foam would be better, that way his car won't stink like peanuts forever. That would really suck, especially for someone allergic to peanuts.

    I beleive we have about $120 to spend. That seems like a lot for a prank, but I have 6 or 7 people in on it.
    I am looking for approx. 85 cubic feet of the stuff

    On the expanding foam: I don't want to wreck anything, just give my buddy a hard time, and a good laugh

    Hakkola: its not actually peanuts, its the foam 's's, but I guess they are called foam peanuts.
