(Glenpool, Ok) The recession is apparently affecting sales at area fireworks stands. Richard Bishop is an Akdar Shriner selling fireworks under the big tent near 121st and Highway 75. He says customers this year seem to be more buget conscious than in years past.  Bishop says customers come in and say 'I've got $80 or $100 to spend.'  Whereas before Bishop says they'd come in and 'just start buying.'  Bishop estimates sales are off about 15% compared to last year.
