Brake Bleeder Hose?

I was wondering if someone had any ideas of where I could get a couple different diameter size hoses to bleed my brakes this weekend? I have OEM rears and Wiwoods in the front and they are both different diameter bleed screws. I figured maybe home depot but I don't even know what the tubing would be called.

I'm doing the two-man drill with it, so just need a tube to see the bubbles.

Home Depot, Sears or Lowes has an assortment of clear hose tubing in different sizes, in prepackaged rolls or sold by the ft (just cut to the length you need). Also if the hose is not perfectly snug on the bleeder, what I like to do is use a small zip tie as a clamp to make sure it stays on the bleeder.

Home depot/Lowes. It's in the plumbing section.

If you order silicone hose, the diameter doesn't need to be that exact since it'll stretch over the nipple.
