A couple of weeks ago, someone posted a website that had killer deals on machine embroidery thread. I wish I had bookmarked that page! Anyone remember what the website was?
Or just share your favorite thread site or where you've seen great specials lately.
The best I'm finding is $3.79 for a 5000 m cone. Are there better deals without sacrificing quality too much?

I just about always use Sulky brand embroidery thread. It is pretty expensive, but good.

I use Metro and Mettler and my machines like both a lot. I think you may be talking about the fantastic deal on Maderia (?) which cost her about $12.00 or something like that for a box. I planned to order some of it but forgot so not sure if it is still on sale but think 9/30 was the last day. :(

Stay away from the ebay auctions from India. When I first got my machine, I got quite a bit of it and it all smells musty or something. I haven't been able to get that smell out of it.
