Where to find a retractable 120" quilters tape

Where can a 120" retractable quilters tape be found. Our guest lives in New Jersey and is a taylor. He wants to buy 5 or 6 because he has his on a lanyard around his neck and it is getting worn out. They are much handier for him than a regular 120" tape. Thanks for your help in advance.

I bought mine at Joann's also, on the F&P notions wall, NOT the regular notions wall. I don't understand why they keep them separate.

they consider these "Quilting" notions!!! Who knew there was a difference
THE GOOD NEWS is that quilting notions are on sale at Joanns this week for 50% off. They usually just put the sewing notions on sale.

Thanks for the suggestions. I gave our guest the annies catalog website and he was tickled to death. Annie's price was considerably cheaper than amazon.
