I know I remember reading on this board of some of you buying large bottles of spray starch from Joanne's.
I think I remember the name of it was a "Lady's Name" and you could purchase it in "gallon bottles"...
Is this something you can only get on line through Joanne's because when I went to my Joanne's today they looked at me like I had two heads!! :(
Please someone tell me I am not losing it yet!!??
Thanks in advance for your help and advice.

Someone said that they sell Mary Ellen's Best Press, but it is not sold at my store.

Some LQS's sell it in gallon sizes.
You also might check at Hancock Fabrics

i can't answer your question. my psychiatrist forbids me to diagnose others. :lol:

Mary Ellen's Best Press is the most famous of the clear, non-aerosol spray starches.

i think you can save quite a bit if you hunt for it online. i know amazon has it available at a variety of price points - most of which are lower than the average LQS price.

If you've lost your mind it is probably in the same place mine is. Let me know if you find them.

I got the gallon size last week at Joann's online. It was on sale.
Check online- I've never seen it at my Joann's in that size.
