Our HF store had only 45's ,2 in a pk. for $1.49. The kicker was they were located in the paint area on a wall display. I gave mine to a fabric shop to see how they work and in 4 days there was already occasional skips. So maybe a good deal...maybe not.

Free shipping also. You also can make an offer as we did for an even cheaper price

A few people keep asking about whether these blades will cut the mat. Now really, I don't GET that question. If the blade is dull enough to not mar the mat, it's too dull to use. And my mat is showing lots of wear and tear before I ever even heard of these HF blades (this is the BIG white mat from Joanns) Haven't tried cutting on a green or grey mat yet.

your blades. bought 1 pkg of blades,works great. DH measured them & there is only 2 thousandths of an inch difference in the thickness. (hope I said that right). the hole in the middle is different but can't see where that matters.

My hubby went to HF yesterday and they were completely sold out and said there were none in the warehouse nationwide for back order!
There is one more near us but I don't want to drive all the way over there and keep forgetting to call to see if they have any in the store.
Can you believe it! Sold out nationwide?

I bought some of those suction cup ruler holders at HFT. They were in the automotive department, used for putting in windshields. I think it was less than $8. I also got one of the smaller ones for 2.99, but can't remember where that was at in the store, it wasn't near the big one.

I'd never heard of Harbor Freight until I read about it on this site. I've already bought so much to use for quilting - all ideas from all of you! I was just there today and picked up the last pack of blades. Haven't tried them out in my rotary cutter yet.
