OK, so far I haven't seen this one (if I missed it please forgive me!). My DD and I wear home-sewn dresses, and buttons are outrageously price, especially for how many we go through. Our local thrift store sells "button jars", and I will buy one or two (total cost usually around $1.50 a jar), and go through them for sets of gently used, nice looking buttons. I've never had a jar give me less then 6 sets, and if you average out the cost of buying brand new buttons for 6 dresses that is a considerable savings.
