but they don't ship to U.S.. does anybody know of a website that sells this product that ships to U.S.??

thank you very much..

Yup Wall-Mart & go into the school/office supply area & they sell a big pack of rainbow soft foam & they should only be around $1 (about 80 cents- just over 1 U.S. dollar...no more than $1.50). :specool:

thanks to all for your replies.. I went to Staples, they didn't have them.. I don't have a Wall-Mart close to me... however, I sent those folks an email and they replied days later with a url to their U.S. site! so I ordered right away.. I replied to them, please, put a link to your U.S. site on your Canadian site.. ;-)

thank you very much..
