You can use the disk over and over again, because the heat from you skin reactivates the glue, and it comes with several glue disks. You're actually more likely to lost the disk than to run out of the glue thingies. I don't do hand quilting without it anymore!
I found something similar at Walmart....they are plastic and stick to your finger, very reasonably priced.
