    I found a good price at J.Hittles.com. I'm not sure of the quality but if I recall I think I bought from there several years ago and they were fine.I wanted to get some quilting pins too,but how can pins cost so much!!!It's insane!

    I have bought some at Walmart. Bought some made by Fiskars that wasn't as good as my old blade. Don't know what's up with that.

    I buy the titanium rotary blades at Walmart. I don't know if they are still carried there. I bought every package on the shelf when they were marked down to $5 a pack for 3 blades in a pack. I went to several Walmarts and bought what they had too. No one seemed to want to buy them but me. I asked one shopper who was looking at them if she wanted them. She said no, she only needed one blade at a time ? She took the one blade package at regular price. Hard to understand other's reasoning. LOL

    The last time i purchased blades I won an eBay auction 22 45m olfa blades for $44. $2 each--should last for a few years. I did this a few other times--only then I had to buy 5 blades to get the $2 price which is my goal.

    My sister in law is coming to stay with me and go to the Houston Festival (yeah!!) and I will be sharing my latest win with her.

    I get mine on sale at JoAnn. I absolutely HATE the blades from Harbor Freight. Not sharp enough to even cut through one layer of fabric. I tried 4 different packages and threw them all away. Nothing beats Olfa blades in my opinion.

    On sale from Joann's -- I buy a few packs every time they are on sale (hopefully with a % off entire purchase coupon as well).

    Hancock Fabrics has 50% off quilting supplies every so often, or with the flyers they have 40-50% off coupons for sewing supplies. On the first and third Wednesday of the month, 55 and older receive an additional 15% entire purchase.
