I recently bought some from Lowe's; they came in a small pack that had one of each style. For the one that had an auto-stopper, it seems to work much better if you have the ends lined up squarely, and then start push the couplings together before fanning the sliding ring just enough to allow the couplings to seat. Otherwise, I got sprayed alot too....
