You can get a bag of 300 for a buck at Family Dollar. Dollar Tree and Dollar General don't have the big bags. I've been using them for a couple of years on my bobbins. Another big advantage is if you drop your bobbin with one of them on it it doesn't roll away.

I saw these for sale in the clotilde book and laughed because for the not sure 10$ price tag you can go to the dollar store and get 50 for a buck!! Thank you for posting this I have been meaning to try it out!

my great nieces has some of these to put in her hair, are these the same things? sorry does sound kinda dumb, but I don't have any little girls hanging around me!(wish I did though)and small rubber bands placed around the bobbin, who would have guessed! I think I will go get a bag today!

Thank you so much. I have never been able to control my bobbin treads. I am going to my dollar store tomorrow.
