Well floks, its an old idea! My quilting buddy was sorting out MIL's sewing supplies and found a gadget that did the same thing...from the 60's! Took us awhile to figure it out...lol
Everything old is new again, but I do admire the "special pins" part. Don't see myself investing in one.

I like that it even comes with a "paper funnel"!

LMBO! She is so freaking chearing. I wonder if she really believes what she is saying.

My pins are in a magnetic bowl from Harbor Freight. I have no problem picking them out.

We said ALL of those things when they first introduced them in the store. And that paper funnel is not a funnel, it's a shaped piece of paper.

Did you see the size of that thing??? And you have a push a lever to get each individual pin. I usually just dump a bunch on my project and grab and pin as I go. But I guess if you're someone who is constantly sticking themselves, this might be a real good thing!

I saw this at Hancocks today! I mean really? It was $30. Pin Dispenser.
On the site it is priced at $45, and that is a sale price from the regular price of $59.99 :shock: :shock: :shock:
Did you watch the video...this thing is huge!

It is huge! Looks like another item to jam up like my office stapler or my basting gun. I think I'll pass.

And don't forget you need to buy 4 batteries too!
