Where can I get some...

[mikewithe]

shock cord for a decent price? I need 60 or 70 feet of 1/8th (ish) cheap.

Thanks!

Joann's has lightweight stuff (less than 1/8", probably 3/32"???) by the yard... cheap... It's white, but it works...

Any fabric store should have lightweight stuff. the 1/8" cord is more expensive, but I've found it at shops that sell climbing gear (by the foot). Sport Chalet by me has some... (not cheap)

Quest outfitters, 1/8" = $0.50/yd

Seattle Fabrics 1/8" = $0.65/yd

I have found that the 3/16" is stretchier, and works fine for most things.

If you do buy from Joann's make sure you use their 50% off coupon.

I have a package of Colemans 'tent pole repair' shock cord- only a couple bucks, but not sure how long/much is in each package...worth a thought though!
