Why is the Olfa 35 x 70 inch cutting mat out of stock everywhere??

I did a web search and found the Olfa 35 x 70 inch (the kind that has 3 pieces that clip together) was featured on a number of websites (Jo Anns, WalMart, Hancock Fabrics, Overstock, Amazon, etc.) and every single site was "Out Of Stock". Do you think this item is no longer manufactured or that all the quilters shopped Black Friday for a large cutting mat??

It doesn't seem there are any other alternatives other than the 36 x 59 inch white one from JoAnns that the reviews indicate it is a terrible mat anyway. What can I get?

It doesn't look like it's out of stock everywhere. Here are some I found:

Hope you like it. I returned mine. Didnt like the joints when they were clipped together. The white ones are horrible. They will ruin your lades fast!
