Default Polyester Thread

Last week or so I asked a question about different threads and was amazed at the prices. Many wrote back saying they had switched to polyester thread because it gave off less lint and was cheaper. So at Walmart yesterday on my way to the garden department I passed the clearance aisle and there was a box of "Mainstays Overlocking Thread" 100% polyester thread with 3000 yds to a spool for .25 cents each. I grabbed two light grays and figured they would be good for piecing if nothing else. I'll try them on a practice muslin piece for quilting. Not sure if all Walmarts have these on clearance, but figured it could hurt to try them out.
