Jump leads in the City

I seem to get asked all the time if I have jump leads to start various colleagues' cars. Maybe they leave the lights on all the time...
I thought I might buy a set.
Any idea where I can get a long-ish set on the Island, preferably near Al Nayhan/Al Karamah?

I bought mine at ACE. Bought first a Carrefour but threw them away after a while
Quote Andy "Ace and ARB are good at 4x4 stuff, Carrefour are good at food, Dont mix them"

My wife always leaves her lights on, so after a while a got tired of getting rescue calls and went to Ace and bought her a portable booster from Black'n Decker, with built-in cables. Very small fit under seat. She used it a few times already
and loves it. It is 350 Amp. Will be handy when we go camping with jeep or boat just in case

You can find booster cables in some ADNOC petrol stations.
See to get them with heavy clips, sufficient length and flexible cable.
Some have thin clips, the insulation chips off easily.
