Oceanic Arts sell them as well.

7-11 big gulp and slurpee straws are free!
They work very well and are individually wrapped!
I'm just sayin

Yeah, but can you really walk out with a big handful? I think if I did that at my local one they'd be less than enthusiastic.

Pocketful with shirt over tops works everytime. Plus do they really care about a handful of straws??? or just go in often and grab 2 or 3 soon you'll have a huge batch!!!

OR buy a big gulp and grab a bunch then at least you bought "something"...

I'm just sayin!

The big gulp / slurpee straws may be free, but they're cetainly not 18 inches long like these:

wow that huki picture gets around -
but yes lugi - 7-11 straws are only 13 1/2 inches. - let discuss at Oasis this year! I think you owe me a drink from some past havana club interests!

You know I still have a tiny little bit left of that Havana Club? I just can't bring myself to polish it off and lose bragging rights to honestly say "Yes, of course my home bar has Havana Club rum".

And yes, I do owe you a drink or two.

Yikes!
That IS way out of line.
Edited pricing down a bit.
Gotta work on cheaper packaging and more accurate ship pricing.....
Thanks for all the feedback!

I usually go to my local Chinese Food joint, and tell em I have a kid who's working on a crafts project for school, and I need some of the giant straws they have. Last time I offered em $10, and they FILLED a brown takeout bag with 'em!!

Although taking 'em from 7-11 might be my new method. :wink: lol

Back in the old days you could double up for a full 36 inches! Nice straws indeed.

Apparently those straws are used in the dairy industry for who-knows-what, and my hubby happens to work in the dairy industry, sooooo....via the 5 finger discount - that comes out to....$0.00! The drawback is I can't get them in pretty colors :( Oh, I also get butter for a $1.00/lb and free cottage cheese and sour cream! Good thing I'm not lactose intollerant!
