Rotary blades
 

Where does everyone get theirs at a good price??? Im down to my last blade,,gotta order!!

JpAnn's with the coupon.

Yep, I get the big package with the Joann's coupon,

I get emails and coupons from Hancocks and JoAnn's when they have sales I buy a couple of each 28,45,60. But I don't go through them too much. I clean the blades before and after each use. Often if you just clean the blade of excess lint, I don't wait till I'm down to my last blade though. No further than I have to drive, I just go get them. But I buy with coupon and in quantity. Also Hancocks has 15% discount on Wednesdays for seniors. If you're not a senior but know one take her shopping with you and have her get them for you. May want to put her on a mailing list.

I just ordered a pkg of 45 mm. they are due to arrive today. will see what they are like. I have not ordered from them before but I found their website here on the board. they have lots of sewing notions etc and are not that high priced. I think a pkg of 10 blades was like 18.90 plus shipping of course. Handy to order on line instead of having to run to the store. I have heard others say they get the ordered thru Harbor Freight and they like them also. I have never dealt with them.

Try to wait until the big after Thanksgiving sale at JAF !!!

I have been using the carpet cutters blades from Harbor Freight. Some people have reported problems with them, but mine have all been super good, and they're only $1/blade. http://www.harborfreight.com/pack-of...des-97642.html

I buy in bulk on eBay.

You can try http://www.lpsharp.com/ 10 blades for $33.00
He also will exchange old blades for new at a discounted price.

Thanks! I have to order on line,,,no Joanns within 100 miles.

I found a good price at J.Hittles.com. I'm not sure of the quality but if I recall I think I bought from there several years ago and they were fine.I wanted to get some quilting pins too,but how can pins cost so much!!!It's insane!

Walmart has good prices! I was surprised.

I have bought some at Walmart. Bought some made by Fiskars that wasn't as good as my old blade. Don't know what's up with that.

I buy the titanium rotary blades at Walmart. I don't know if they are still carried there. I bought every package on the shelf when they were marked down to $5 a pack for 3 blades in a pack. I went to several Walmarts and bought what they had too. No one seemed to want to buy them but me. I asked one shopper who was looking at them if she wanted them. She said no, she only needed one blade at a time ? She took the one blade package at regular price. Hard to understand other's reasoning. LOL

harbor freight or the waglers with a flashlight

The last time i purchased blades I won an eBay auction 22 45m olfa blades for $44. $2 each--should last for a few years. I did this a few other times--only then I had to buy 5 blades to get the $2 price which is my goal.

My sister in law is coming to stay with me and go to the Houston Festival (yeah!!) and I will be sharing my latest win with her.

I get mine on sale at JoAnn. I absolutely HATE the blades from Harbor Freight. Not sharp enough to even cut through one layer of fabric. I tried 4 different packages and threw them all away. Nothing beats Olfa blades in my opinion.

On sale from Joann's -- I buy a few packs every time they are on sale (hopefully with a % off entire purchase coupon as well).

Hancock Fabrics has 50% off quilting supplies every so often, or with the flyers they have 40-50% off coupons for sewing supplies. On the first and third Wednesday of the month, 55 and older receive an additional 15% entire purchase.

got mine on ebay, 20 blades Olfas for$20

You can nearly always find a JoAnns 40% off or 50% off coupon online. It is usually good either in the store or online. I sometimes get mine on EBay but you have to be patient to get a decent deal. They don't usually go very cheaply.

I have been a Harbor Freight buyer for several years now. Occasionally a blade might not be sharp enough but at $1 per blade or less, I can afford to throw one away now and then.

I agree with DUNSTER. I use the Harbor Freight blades. I have not had a problem/issue with their not being sharp.

Amazon and if you have prime no postage batting, usually Cotten even better than Joann's with coupon!

Martelli has great blades and will have 50% off coupons periodically, sign up for emails. Take a 50% off coupon from AC Moore or anyones to Michaels and buy some there.

I get mine from Harbor Freight. They're called carpet cutting blades. Some people have commented that they may not last as long as the quilting blades, but they are so much cheaper (about $1 each) that they are still a good value. I personally think they last as long and I have a tendency to change my blade quicker (which is a good thing) because they are so inexpensive.

I buy them at Hancocks when they are 50% off, which is not often. I also get really good buys on them on e-bay at times.

Hittle's Wholesale....you can bulk -buy and their pricing is better than anyone else I've found.

I also order from Joannes but I use the off brand ones. They are called Cutting Edge. I have had no problems with and love that fact that they are a little cheaper although I do think I will be trying out those carpet cutter blades also.

Blades and other sewing things are always on my Christmas list. My family knows how much I love sewing and quilting so they give me things like this.

When Martelli has a 50% off sale, I buy them in huge lots. Last time I did, my two quilting neighbors and I shared them. I still have some that I have not used yet. In order to get their sales, you will need to sign up on their website and they will send you a newsletter announcing their sales. I bought my round about from them at half price too. I noted that they have a coupon redeemable only at the Houston IQF for rotary blades for any of you who plan to attend. You can either print and cut the coupon out or show them your email on your smart phone to redeem the coupon.

Ditto :thumbup: .... I've had a couple of bad ones but at such low cost tossing one doesn't feel bad ... buy in bulk and always have on hand.

The blades I've gotten from Harbor Freight skip terribly. I know others have not been happy with them....FYI!

I have tried the Harbor Freight Blades . They seem to get dull faster so the value isn't there for me.

I use my 40% or 50% coupon at micheals. They are never on sale so I can always use my coupon.

I also order these online, getting new Olfa blades in the mail, alleviates me going to the LQS - I don't like to discard my old blades (who knows where they end up), therefore I keep them in the old pkg and when I order new pkgs, send these back to LPSharp, and by returning the used blades for new ones - get a better deal.

I agree. Harbor Freight is worth the savings. I buy them, too. Joannes with a coupon would prob be the next best, but always witha coupon.

I buy generic blades online from SouthStar Supply. I get 10 - 45 MM blades for 19.99 plus shipping. This last time I bought 20 blades. With shipping this cost about $49. This is about 2.50 per blade. I have been using them for years.

The Olfa blades on Joann's are $60 for 10. So even with a 50% off coupon it still costs $30.

I order blades from jhittlesewing.com and buy at least 10 at a time. Excellent service.
