Just went and picked up the 15 packs they had available at the HF near me. The cashier gave me a strange look :-)

Gotta tell you this one. I called Harbor Freight in West St. Paul
in the Signal Hills Shopping Center. I bought the last six, ordered 14 more and told the lady what I was using them for. She told me she was a quilter too, never heard of this and was pleasantly surprised and is going to buy some too. So, you West St. Paulers, St. Paulers, Eagan and IGH, ask for Samantha at Harbor Freight. I am so excited. I got ten for me and ten for my friend. We are set and ready to go. Will pick them up tomorrow AM. Edie

I am sure someone has told them by now. Now if they only hold the price down for us.

Yup, I was the one that told them only because she also is a quilter and she deserved to know. I am also picking up a cutter - $4.00 plus three blades. Hey, I am set for life. My friend is set for life and the woman that works at Harbor Freight is set for life and she can get a discount besides.

Actually, my husband said the same thing. Everyone is going to find out about it and the carpetlayers are going to go after all of us. It is their tool!!!! Edie

If you can find a store near you, your best bet is to go to the store - otherwise the mailing cost is exhorbitant, I think!

I went online also and was gobsmacked by the price of the mailing. But, in the long run, you will still be ahead, considering what the price is otherwise.

Golly we are smart, aren't we? Specially the lady that started all this. Penny saved is fabric in our pockets!!!!!! Edie

Ok so today I went to my HF and I asked for all 11 of the packages of blades that they had and the guy scratched his head and said that today was the day for strange requests. I was out of my element for sure in that store. lol So I now have 22 blades to keep me going for a while. Thanks to who ever it was that let us all in on this great secret. :) I have said this before and I will say it again, you guys are all so wonderful!!

One thing I forgot to ask the other day was HAS ANY ONE TRIED THEM OUT YET? just to make sure that they are alright.
For those in Australia why don't you try places like Bunnings and see if they have them in their store. I will next weekend when I'm down in Brisbane and will let you know if I find them and the cost.

I got the last two packages at the store near me and then called the one by my son. He went and picked up 5 more packs.
I tried them today and they work like a charm!!!!
