Default size of CD cases to store unmounted stamps

I have a few sets from Cornish heritage farms and need to store them in a CD case. I think the jewel cases are to thin~ where can I get empty CD cases?

I bought the older type of CD cases at Wal-Mart. The newer thin ones didn't work for me, either.

Yes, the "Slim" ones are too thin. It's getting harder to find the original size. I bought a bunch at Big Lots last year....I think they were like 2.25 per pack of 10.

Unless there's a US/UK difference, standard CD cases should be fine Lori, just avoid slimline ones. I store all my CHF cling mounted stamps in CD cases. I could give you my supplier but as I'm in the UK it's not going to be much use to you! I found mine through eBay though so maybe worth a look there for you? I managed to find ones with no tray so I didn't have to pull that out and junk it straight away!
