    The small spools were 18 cents apiece, larger spools 24 cents, and the cones were 49 cents!
    I bought some one day, then back the next, and next. Finally I went in and bought the remaining Gutterman thread.


    This basket is 16" X 24" and better than half full. I spent $100 total for $1000 worth of thread!

    Hey.....how did my cat get to your house????? Same yellow/green eyes.

    Lucky you, happy sewing. i did that once here, but they didn't have that much available by the time I saw it. But at those prices you can't afford to leave it in the store.
