Where do you ladies buy your largest cutting mats and where do you find the best price. I want a large one to fit my desk! Thanks in advance!

i bought mine back when Joann's allowed me to buy it with a 50% off coupon. Only cost me $20, but I think the same 1 is about $60. It fits the top of the foldup table that I bought from Joanns. I also have several smaller ones and 1 that I taped to the one side of the table so I have 2 large ones if needed at the same time.

I purchased mine when I had my horn table it fits table exactly. My next one down I ordered from a shop in Lichfield UK . And picked it up on a very windy day. Should have seen me flying down the high street.
I don't take either out of the house they have their own places to stay.

I needed a large mat 30" wide to fit my table, and found an Alvin 30" x 42" at Hayneedle.com. Free shipping. Have had it more than 2 years and I'm still very pleased with it.

I don't have it, but there is a sewing table who's top is a cutting mat. I'd love it if I had the money and the space

Mine is 36x36. Works well for me. I've seen them all over. I had a 20% coupon from JoAnn's. Don't remember what I paid for it.

I have two Beba's mats that I purchased at quilt shows. The show price on the largest 29" by 59" (plus borders) was $60.00 and included an 8" by 8" bonus mat.

Tuesday Morning has a mat that's 40" wide by I think 66" - it hung over the edges of my dining table. Currently using one from JoAnn's that's 36" x 36" and is perfect.

I compare prices at JoAnns and amazon. If the coupon I have for Joanns would give me a better price than on Amazon, I buy it at JoAnns. Otherwise, I've generally found that Amazon is less expensive. Of course, you do have to wait a few days to get your new toy in the mail. Recently I wanted a small mat to keep next to my sewing machine and I purchased a 18" x 12" Fiskars mat on Amazon for about $12.
