Default Clear Envelopes

Hi Ladies
I am interested in branching out into using clear envelopes ( I know I am a dare devil..LOL) and realized SU does not sell them anymore...where do all of you clear envelope girls purchase yours? I looked online but am having a hard time finding 4 3/8 x 5 3/4 sized envelopes. Thoughts? Opinions?
Thank You!
Simone

I just got an order from www.clearbags.com today. Didn't order exactly what you want but I know they had lots of sizes to choose from.

You can also find them on Ebay, if you are looking for the one with the self stick. The seller I buy them from is "doozie55". I just bought 100 for like $5.75 and she has/had 500 for $27.50. Shipping is reasonable and she ships quickly. Very nice to deal with and I'm happy with the product. I also just bought some plastic pop-up boxes from her to package a set of cards in as gifts. Check her out.

Our Michael's actually carries a wide variety of sizes BUT they're over in the gitwrap area, with gift bags and such.

why purchase expensive clear envelopes when you can put a card that size into an SU! large clear cello bag and tape the flap in place with a little bit of good old Scotch tape? 50 for $5--can't beat that with a stick!

The SU clear envelopes are also 50 for $5, and mailable... you can't mail a too-large bag with the flap taped.

I did comparison shop Clear Envelopes and Doozie55 on Ebay. I didn't really compare on the shipping as I just ordered from Doozie55 all I needed but I did find the clear envelopes to be a little cheaper. In buying from Doozie they are about .07 each as opposed to SU at .10/pc. I think I get 100 from Doozie55 for about $7.00 after S&H. I received my pop-up boxes from her yesterday as well and they seem to be very nice. I'm going to like giving my cards as gifts in them this year!! Check her out!
