    It always seems to be on the bottom shelf and it is very inexpensive!

    I buy the large role of Freezer Paper at Wall-mart, it is Reynolds Freezer Paper.

    Since the topic is freezer paper, I'll pass on my favorite way to use it. find someone with a bandsaw. mark off the
    whole roll (rolled, right out of the box) in increments of 3",4",5", 6". (I think the roll is 18" !). slice through the
    whole roll at these points. Or, whatever width that is the most usable to you. now, you have usable sizes for applique' without using the whole width for some leaves, etc. you can leave these in the box so you can use the cutter provided.

    Years ago I bought a roll of freezer paper at Costco -- I will probably be using it until I quilt sewing. It is still huge and heavy. I can get the smaller boxes at the grocery stores around here.

    Home Hardware carries the Reynolds Freezer Paper. They can order it for you.

    I bought mine at Costco, but that was probably 10 years ago. I bought a huge roll that may well last my lifetime.

    I will be heading over to the USA next Thursday, so I will definitely scope out some stores for it, so if anyone has the "inside scoop" exactly where, do let me know!

    Has anyone offered to ship you some. The shipping might cost a bit, but I think the paper itself is reasonable,

    Thank you all for the info & many thanks to those who offered to send me some! What a great bunch here!
    I succeeded in purchasing some yesterday at Tops in the US.
    *callen*....indeed it is odd that I had so much difficulty finding the freezer paper when I do live in a large urban area. But like I said, I wasn't driving all around my city to look for it. I'm sure someone has it but I only checked within my area. I didn't want to waste time driving when it could be spent flinging fabric!
    Now, spray starch, I have no trouble finding! Thank goodness because I've been using it while ironing long before I started quilting!
