I looked at the blades at Harbor Freight...didn't buy them.
I'm a pretty frugal crafter/quilter/embroiderer... Quilt police don't live around here, LOL.... We don't have a place to even buy a spool of thread here...have to drive 36-40 miles to nearest place to buy (Walmart is 36, Joann & Hobby Lobby are 40 mi each way)...so I make darn sure to get everything I can in one trip. We plan our trips to Lubbock like we do our grocery shopping...lists of what's needed...I check Joann for coupons & for what's on sale, etc. We came to TX from Calif...where everything was local...I could walk to Walmart! This was the biggest change for me...location...but it's been a blessing of a move (health & income wise at least).

Those rotary cutter blades from ?? for $1.98 for two. (Got some a while ago - but don't remember name now)
How about you?
ETA: But it seems like something newer and better is always becoming available. WAAAAAH!
