Other Than Tip 230, What Tip Can I Use To Fill Cupcakes?

What tip do you use to fill cupcakes? I know CaliDawn uses 230, but I don't have one and Michael's doesn't carry it. I would hate to have to place an online order just for one tip. Are there any other tips that work well?
If not, I will just be "forced" to go to Sugarcraft's online store and probably buy a lot of items I don't really need....no will power on that site! haha
Thanks again!
Mohara, I looked at tip 230 and its a long round tip, I don't know why you couldn't use any of the other round tips you just wouldn't be able to go as deep into the cupcake as you would with 230. its worth a try before you go and spend too much at sugarcraft.
I can't get that long tip either so I just use a #5 and gently push in as far as I can to put the filling in, I also do it in 3-4 spots to help fill it up.
Thanks!
I actually broke down and bought it off the Wilton site. I'm a dummy though...I should have used Sugarcraft because they ship a lot quicker. Its annoying because at Wilton, you are paying for ground shipping and yet they don't ship for 10-14 days. At that rate I could walk there from NY and get it quicker. Sugarcraft ships right away and I normally have it within 3-4 days.
If I don't get them in time, I will try tip 5. About how far in do you go? So that the tip is in the middle of the cupcake?
i know it is not the regular metal tip like wilton but I got a cheap plastic decorating kit many years ago before i got into decorating that had a plastice long thin tip that I have used to put pudding in cup cakes. I purchased it at the local grocery store. Just an Idea.
