Default Where to purchase online a BIA 1 or 1/4 inch coil?

So I have made my 19 YO DD a daytimer to take back to college and my coils are not big enough - where can I get a 1 inch or a 1 1/4 inch coil online? SB.com has the 1 inch but not the 1 1/4 inch (and they don't have a coupon I like today tee hee). Advice?

TIA
Andrea

*Edited* Now that I know what BIA stands for my advice is fairly useless :P

But if all else fails you can buy single coils from FedEx Office (aka Kinko's). They have a variety of sizes in stock all the time because they bind so many projects. And most stores will sell you the coils by themselves for around 25cents. And really any print shop should have them in stock, doesn't have to be FedEx Office ...

They won't be the exact same coil type, more like a spiral coil. But it will fit the holes and you just spin it on.

HTH! Sorry for being a dunce

Boho Rose - thanks for the tip - I may just stop by an office supply store and see if I can find one that fits....sorry my post wasn't clear - I shouldn't have assumed everyone knows that BIA = Bind It All - I swear I am seriously addicted to that machine and seem to make lots of mini albums now.

Thanks again for your help!~ Andrea

I'm still fairly new to paper crafting so I'm still figuring out all the acronyms.

But I work at FedEx Office So I play with paper all day long anyway. The bind it all looks pretty cool though. Most of the customers that come in at work are looking for that kind of binding, but it's not one that we do.
