Hi everyone! I was curious to know where you purchase the string, cord, floss, thread, etc. you use in tying your friendship bracelets. Where do you find the best prices, variety and colors? Does you favorite local store have a website we all can shop from? Thanks!

I go to Joann's craft store because they ALWAYS have coupons, and they have lots of color choices.

I get everything at Michael's, and occasionally Jo-Ann's! I'll also get stuff at Wal-Mart when I'm at camp, but I prefer not to go there.

I like Michael's too. So far I'm not seeing much of a price difference between Michael's, Joann's and Hobby Lobby for the quality of thread.

i usually get my string at Joanns. on their website they also have a lot of coupons too. once i got seven and was able to use them all. i also sometimes get my string at Walmart if i need it really soon. my walmart doesn't have as big a selection as Joanns though. 🙂

Does anyone have any suggestions about where to get glow in the dark and/or metallic thread in bulk at a reasonable price? I'm just seeing places that sell it in a single skein and I want more than that but have a limited budget.

Does anyone have any locally owned "Mom and Pop" stores they'd like to recognize? I'd love to give the small business my business.

i usually get mine online if im not in a rush to get the string 😛 eBay usually has good quality strings with a pretty good price 🙂 the only bad thing about getting them off eBay is waiting for them to ship :/

@falling What is 5 and 10? Online store? Website? Or is it similar to a Dollar General?

When I first started I used to get my strings at walmart but they stopped carrying them so I found some at art stores in Canada but they were pricier, so now I travel further to go to Michaels cause it's way cheaper.
