Default string stretch question

I got a question about new string stretch. I am getting a new set of zebra strings and cables for my pse Bruin. I know that there is going to be a break-in time but how long. I don't wanna be tuning and re-tuning. I just wanna get the biggest part of the stretch out before the aggravation begins.

If history repeats itself then the breakin period never ceases with Zebra strings. The correct term for the elongation is creep, not stretch, just for your information. However, I would not recommend Zebras. They have been known to creep forever. You're better off to contact someone like Gibblet here on this site and order what you want from him. You'll get much better quality and probably for less money.

My strings have been creeping also. they are black and white- I'm assuming zebras?
Also, I have heard mention of Gibblet, who is it and how do I find him?
