If you look in the resources at the Squash Book, I believe there is a link to where you can buy some.

Ditto the Chilis source!! We went to dinner last week, and stacks of them were sitting on the tables and I was gonna grab some, but instead I asked our server if I could have some, and she brought out a NEW pkg and handed me a stack- of 50!!!! Though I do have some I bought from Dazzling20 on SCS!!!

You can check out ckresale on eBay (100% feedback rating). She carries two different weight chipboard sheets and in various sizes. She can even do custom sizes. Her name is Crystal and she is very communicative. She sent me a sample of her chipboard and I can vouch for the great quality. Cheapest CB sheets I have found online.

Here is the link: http://search.ebay.com/_W0QQsassZckresale

Crystal carries both .022 and .032 caliper weights for the bigger sized sheets 8.5x11 and 12x12. 5x7 sheets come in .022, .028, .032 weights. I have worked with cereal boxes to make faux chipboard pieces and albums before. The thinner weight chipboard sheets she carries are tad bit thicker than a cereal box. Hope that answers your question?

Check and see if you have any Paper Supply (usually for restaurant supplies) companies in your area. I just bought a box of 800 of them for 27.00. (This is the 3rd box I have bought from them).

I just called the place where I got mine to see if they could ship to other areas. They are checking on the price of shipping them (the box is quite heavy). If you are interested in ordering from them, send me an email and I'll give you their phone number.

I found the square coasters at Michaels in the $ bin today! I think 8 in a package with wine decor that you could cover.

OMG I would never think to ask for some. That's so funny! And I wouldn't tend to think that they would give you a bunch of them!! Gotta like those Chili's people!

Actually on a more serious note, my son had a major seizure once at Chilis (he's never had one before or another after that) and they were awesome! We had only ordered drinks and we ran out without paying for them. When I returned later that night to pay for them and get us dinner to take back to the hospital, they gave us dinner free along with coupons for more free meals! They were awesome!!!!!
