viking.com had/has refills for 1.88 and the actually dispenser thingy for like $2.89.
I bought them on Monday and rec'd Tuesday! Not sure if that was a sale on Monday or an anyday thing.
Look for a thread from Monday for Viking codes or refills being 1.88...some times these codes do work and sometimes they do not, but someone mentioned you have to change the 1st two letters of the item #. I did that and I got the discount.
Veronica's right. Viking is the cheapest by far, and if you buy over $25 (I think) you get free shipping!!!! And they are SUPER fast.

Oh yea, the free shipping, that was nice. Plus....drumroll....you get a free egg digital clock. I laughed when I opened it..I thought it would be like 6 inches tall, a nice clock for a desk....haha it is smaller than an actual egg. So, do not jump through hoops trying to get that little sucker. I'm such a chump for freebies...
I just ordered some refills from Viking yesterday (ordered $25 to get the free shipping), and it just arrived today! I used to order from Viking back when I was an office manager at a software company. They have always had good service, but their price on the mono is just GREAT!
This may be a dumb question, but...Do the refills work in the SU! "SNAIL" despenser?
I'm pretty sure the SNAIL dispenser is just the Tombow one done in black and printed with an SU! logo. They used to sell the regular mono that you can buy in regular stores (and from Viking).

Ohhh...makes sense! Thank you.
I'll have to check out Viking closer, then...I go through that stuff like water!
You can order by phone if you want. I always do because it won't take my address to order on line. It tells me it is not authentic?? HELLO - I have lived here for 38 years! :rolleyes:
If you want the lowest price, just ask for it if the code is not correct and they will give it to you. Do it all the time. # 1-800-241-1222 (24/7) They are great people to talk to and are very helpful.

lol.. not authentic... Well, at least they will ship to you. I got all the way thru my order and was ready to pay and kept trying to put Alaska in the drop down box.. and I was like ... Hey Alaska isn't on here... guess why.. THEY WON'T SHIP TO ALASKA. This is quickly becoming an issue with me. :(

According to their catalog "Viking Delivers Everywhere in the Continental US!"
The closest distribution center to you is Seattle, so I guess you may be out of luck. :( You could possibly call them and see if they would mail to you, all their orders go out by UPS.

Are the codes available for anyone to use, or are they just meant for businesses/SU demonstrators? Also, when do you use the code? The number for the mono adhesive is totally different from the codes given--do you order it by the product number and then use the codes at check-out? Which mono is it for--it looks like they have several versions available.
Thanks for any help--I go through this stuff like water, too!
I no longer use mono adhesive even though it is so cheap. 90% of my cards made with mono fall apart after a while. I now use double stick tape which is a hassle but my cards stay together. I sell a lot of cards and was embarrassed when the card would fall apart in the customers hand. Does anyone else have this problem?
If you go to the announcement section in the forum, there is a thread there with a whole bunch of codes for different things and they said that you can get the new Fiskars cutter for $10 something. The thread is "I found the best deal ever on Viking."
Also, there is a code for $20 off a $50 order for your first time use.
