Do you guys have the dollar stores (discount stores) over there? That is where I buy mine in the US. They are 100 marbles for a dollar. I get 10 bucks worth and it lasts me a while. I actually like them better than the 3/8" steel shot I bought. Plust they are so much cheaper. First time around I was looking in the toy section and could not find any. Then I went to the "home decor" section and found them in several colors. They are used to put in vases and such as a decoration.

yes we have a pound shop near by but they use to sell them like last year but i hope they should get them back in for Christmas because
they have a stocking filler section thts were they were last time
but still i want to buy as soon as cant be bothered to wait 3 months for them lol
also if i buy off ebay people are charging like £3.50 for 100 plus £2.50 post ripoff i say lol

good thing is im going to visit my brother soon and they have like 4 pound stores and 3 99p stores all in a region of about three miles so hopefully i can get a good bulk load of marbles from there

In both my local Walmart and Dollar store they had cheap marbles in the craft section. Yes, most of them were the squashed kind, but after digging around I found the perfect spheres on a bottom shelf. Like my wife says when I ask her "where is the ...?" "You just have to look, it's not gonna jump up and wave at you."
