Buying Metallic Yarn

By

They don't have any of the metallic, shiny rayon or super-bright colors at any of the 5 Walmart's in my area & with the high shipping costs the E-bay yarn is way to high. But thanks for answering my post anyway, I really appreciate it!

Try Wal-Mart, they are starting to stock some unusual textures and colors.

A short while ago I won 4 auctions on remnant yarn that I found on eBay. But you have to take the shipping cost into consideration.

If you find that you are paying more for the yarn to have it shipped, you are better off buying it at Wal- Mart. Consider your winning bid and the shipping cost.

I went to Advanced Search on eBay and now I'm receiving emails from eBay on yarn that is Buy it Now + yarn in stores + best offer + free shipping!

In the yarn lots that I've won, I received quite a few skeins of the thin yarn which is used for baby items. I can use all the baby yarn up by using 2 strands of yarn which averages out to the thickness of the worsted weight. So nothing will go to waste.

I do a lot of charity work for veterans and find ways of saving money on remnant yarn.

Ebay is a good place to find the yarn you are looking for. Do a search for Lurex yarn, it comes in metallic.
