If you are desperate a handfull of chassis GP grease will do a good job, but be prepared for throw off.
Have you looked at Tractor Supply (etc) ,Cheepo Depo (etc) , auto parts store, good hardware store, Wall mart? Any spray lube would be better than none, even wd40
yea i tried the bike shop all they got is wd 40, home depot's got nothing but chainsaw lube and that stuff atracts dirt like hell, i think ill just have to use wd 40 but i heard those spray type lubes only last 1 ride
you should not use wd-40 if it's an o-ring chain,
wd-40 will deteriorate rubber and plastic.
better off to use regular motor or tranny oil.
most anything but chain wax only lasts one ride.....

here's the lowdown on wd-40, it's not even a true lubricant......
WD-40 Oil Alternatives - The Case Against WD-40 - Popular Mechanics
When Should I Not Use WD-40?
Why WD-40 is Bad for Your Bike Chain - Bicycle Tutor Video......
"Bicycle chains, on the other hand, are far too heavy and fast-moving for the lubricating power of WD-40 to have any effect at all. As a matter of fact, WD-40 will actually strip away any existing lubricant and leave your drivetrain dry – metal on metal. Basically, spraying this stuff on your chain is worse than using no lubricant at all!"
