There's a place in Jacksonville that sells them (and boxes) cheap - Duval Container. They are only open 5 days aweek - they do deliver on large orders but that won't work for you right now with a move planned.

Hope ya find some, if ya want them

... I saw this post and JUST HAD to say -I despise those peanut buggers, cannot stand to get a package with those buggers in the box.

I view them as an impending messy disaster. I quickly try to annihilate them, get them in the trash.
Sooner or later, though, I will find a stray peanut bugger survivor under the couch or chair.

I LUV bubble wrap

Thanks Lady - will check them out.

I know what you're saying Deur1. They are a PITA but good for packing china after I bubble wrap it. I even find a few out in the yard after.

Neil35-- I started on eBay selling high fashion dolls, very pricey gals (grin) - $500 up to $2000
I would use the peanuts sometimes to protect the faces. I would put them in a bag, not loose and cover the face of the dolls.


Hope you find some cheap.
I buy bubble wrap at Sams Club,a roll will last me a year. 99.9% of the things I sell now are not fragile, so seldom use it.

Try Uline.com They have the CornStarch peanuts which I am using and are the same price as the styrofoam ones!! They just disolve in the sink after running water over them. My dog likes to eat them as snacks LOL! )

OK, will check them out too.
My daughter just found a double of bags in the attic so I am OK for awhile.
