Hi Karen,
I know you are having difficulty finding the large CB Fluid chalk pads locally. If you do find a source, you may want to just buy one and give it a test drive. The foam used on the full-size pads is *very* different from the cateye's. I have 'em both but ONLY use my cateyes because I'm not crazy about the results with the full-size ones. Just my $0.02.
Good luck!
Linda
