I just checked well.ca and they carry the Shout colour catcher sheets but are sold out at the moment. I have used this company before and received my order very quickly.

I have been searching for a color/dye catcher here in northern ontario but have seen no such product...is there such a product in Canada...does anyone know...when I search online i find different ones , but in the States. I will be travelling to Toronto next week and was wondering if anyone knew of something i could buy when i`m there...thank you for your help!!

I'm sorry to say that the Colour Catchers are no longer available in Ontario. Believe me when I say, I searched every where and every known possibility. I was told several times that they were recalled and would not be restocked (HUH!). Anyway, after many disappointing searches, we found them on Amazon.com and ordered a case of them. Amazon.ca does not carry them either. Good luck in your search and if you find them in Ontario, please let us know!

I gave up my search for them and had my son pick me up some in Michigan. They are only about $4.00 for a package of 24 at Target. I washed a red and white quilt (pre-washed the red well) and the quilt still had a pink tint. I re-washed with two color catchers and it took it out. Good luck in your search!

If several of you in Canada are interested I could buy several boxes and send to one of you who could then share with the others. That might cut down on the postage.
