I just ran out...and whatever I had bought last time, I did not like!! What is your favorite? I see all these different ones, but it is so expensive to learn by trial and error...thought maybe ya'll could give me some ideas first!!

Tidbits gave me a link to some office supply store and I oredered it online with about a zillion refills! Hopefully she sees this!

ALL scrapbooking stuff is HALF off at Hobby Lobby this week. I am going to look and see what they have!!

Tombow is my favorite too! I also like the 2-way glue pen (scrapbooking) and sticky strip for the extra hold times.

I did get a good price of $1.88 each for the refills through Viking, FREE shipping on $25 AND $20 off a $50 purchase. Unfortunately, they merged with Office Depot and the prices and coupons are no longer that good! If you want to purchase a large amount, I have been told to call Office Depot and speak to someone about the best price. You can also search internet sites for lowest prices.

I, too, stocked up when they were $1.88 with the $20 off the order so I am still set.

I picked up the Tombo runner yesterday with a 40% off coupon (was $5.99 at AC Moore). Then I stopped at Walmart and picked up the Duck Tape version in the office supply section (it was $1.92 and did indeed say CK OK). So I will be conducting my own experiment to see which I like best. Thanks for all the tips!

I will have to check out the sticky tape at Walmart in the office isle. Does it work good?

I love the Duck brand from Wal-Mart...I got four in a pack for $8-something. I've had such a horrible time with refills for other miscellaneous tape runners...and only recently did Hobby Lobby start stocking Tombow refills (which are around $5 EACH!?!?). I've already gone through one whole roll of the Duck brand and NEVER had a problem.
