Where to buy red-blue 3-D glasses in NYC?

I need to deliver three pairs of traditional red-blue (aka red-cyan) anaglyph glasses to an address in midtown NYC by this Tuesday morning. They can be the typical paper kind, or else the more durable ones with plastic frames.
I would have someone local pick them up and pay for them - but I can't seem to find a shop selling them! (Though I know there are plenty of sites selling them, I need a brick&mortar solution this time.)
Help?

Best answer: Give Halloween Adventure a ring ([phone]). That's the only place I can think of.

Is there a comic book store near you? If they aren't selling individual glasses, they're probably selling some comics that come with 3d glasses.

I just picked some up at a local Urban Outfitters, attached to a pad of red/blue drawing paper.

The easiest way to get a small number is to go buy a DVD that's in 3D. "Spy Kids 3D" is a good example, and it comes with four of those glasses.

Not the cheapest way, but it's sure and easy.
