There are two sizes of magnets...the larger ones will foil a purse snatcher, I swear! :mrgreen: The smaller ones aren't as strong. BUT, I can only get the smaller ones online and I can't remember where I got them! :shock: SO --- that being said...I LOVE this idea! There are times I don't want to tote my tote (hahah) and this will be handy. You did a great job!
