I picked up some at Home Depot a few weeks ago for about $8.00-$9.00. If I remember correctly they have several different widths. Sticks good too.

Check Amazon.com, I just bought some 2" x 15' for $20. I couldn't find any locally for a better price.

'Round here, anywhere you find a Walmart, there's at least a 50% chance you'll find a Lowe's next door.......and you can get velcro there too.

There's a hardware store by 22nd and Carson on the South Side that I managed to get about 1"x4' for about $3.00 I can't remember the name, but they have it by the foot, and he gave me a little deal since I bought the last of that roll, but it's a pretty good price if you need a specific amount still.

There too, huh? We've got a mega-Walmart on one side of the road and then a Lowe's straight across from it.

I'm pretty sure it's by design, not just by chance. Our drummer once was a store manager for Lowe's, and I believe I remember him saying something like it's based on market studies, or part of the marketing plan of both companies.

And you can buy velcro both places!
