Went to Harbor Freight, they were out of the cutting blades. I asked if they were getting some in. The clerk said "you must be a quilter!.

I ordered 10 packs online and prepared myself mentally for a long wait for them after reading some of the posts but was quite surprised when in just a few days they were here! When I need to drive 40 miles to the store - and MAYBE they will have them - it is just easier to order online for me and cheaper in the long run. I would never have known about them though if it weren't for this Board! Thanks.

Actually sent my husband in and he bought 4 pkgs.
Not sure who first mentioned these but THANK YOU and to all the newbies, this is a GREAT buy.
I want to second the thank you. I bought some in Feb. and paid a little more $1.79 a pack, but I was still pleased about it. It's still cheaper than any others I've ever seen, so whoever started the thread, I too say THANK YOU.

I bought 28 pks. in Lancaster last weekend @ HF. Sold 20 of them a my minigroup. The ladies were thrilled. This is a deal you can't pass up. They only sell 45mm.

I just bought a couple of packages. They seem to cut better than the regular rotarty blades, but it could just be my imaganation!

If you live that far from the store, with gas prices, wear and tear on your car and time driving to and from ... why don't you just order them online for Harbor Freight? The shipping is not the high. When the discussion was hot and heavy on this last year I couldn't get any of the blades locally, not even an hr away so I bit the bullet and ordered 20pks online.

Now that they are available again, I just might go and stock up, give some to friends as a surprise. The price is too good.
