I found it was cheaper buying in bulk, so I bought once and now have a lifetime supply. I cut narrow strips with my ruler and rotary cutter and keep the strips handie in a baggie. Easy to cut the strips to length with scissors.

Oh, and my other favorite non-quilting tool is blue painter's tape. I wrap it around my hand a couple of times, sticky side out, and stick it on my sewing table to the right of my machine. Any time I have a thread to dispose of, I just stick it on that tape. When the tape gets full, I throw it away and put down a new one. It's very fast and convenient.
