My husband just got home with mine. He got me 10 and the cutter and it came to $15. He said there was a lady in front of him getting a bunch. She told him I must read the same blog she does. LOL

Thanks for the word! I bought a bunch today and there was even a coupon in the Sunday insert this week for 20% off one item and another for a free flashlight! I made off like a bandit!

They look just like the ones that we have been purchasing. I'm thinking that we might not have to apply as much pressure then the mats will last. Or not, and then the LQS will stay in business! :)

Our Lowe's & Home Depot plus carpet stores told they did not have them & NEVER heard of them. They knew nothing of what I was talking about they said!!!!

HF must wonder what is going on with all the buyup of the blades. I went to our store here in Billings and they first said they were out and wouldn't have any in for 2 weeks. She gave me a raincheck and looked up info. for sure and then said the warehouse was out so it would be like 3 weeks. They can't deny that business on blades have really picked up lately. :)

Lucky you all!!! I can't get to our local stores (3 in the area) until this weekend. I'm so afraid they will already be out by the time I get there. Here's hoping!!!

We were in Wichita, KS today and I checked the Harbor Freight store for the rotary cutter blades. I bought 5 packages and left the rest for other quilters. :D Who knew a tool store could be so great!

You can call them and they might save them for you.
I called last night and they only had two sets. I said I could not get there till 2:00 the next day. They said they would hold them for me.
I went today and it took awhile before they found them but finally they did.
They also said they have a new delivery that will be in stock tomorrow, so I may have the chance to buy more tomorrow. Fingers crossed.
I will let you know.

I am in Pa and went to a store today and they were totally out. Also, tried to order them online, but they would only let you order 1 pkg. Well when I am on my way home to AZ the end of Sept. I will have to try other stores on the way.
