I'll take a look the next time we're out there...probably this weekend.

BTW, if you really want to please your wife, mother, etc....take a look at the pretty wired ribbon at Costco...50 Yards for $6.99!!! It's the best deal in the entire store. Some of that ribbon goes for $3-5.00 or more per each YARD in some stores (Molbaks for instance)...this way, you/she can always have beautiful packages and you will know that it was cheaper to make them that way, than it was to tie them with ordinary gift ties...

I LOVE getting beautiful bargains ....I don't get many rolls of pure Christmas ribbon but rather the solid color with little sparkles in the material...that way I can use the ribbon all year long for various occasions.
