I got 2 packs of the 2x2 holders for quarters at Hobby Lobby. They are $3.99 and on one of them I used a 40% off coupon. I know they are a bit pricey there but I didn't need enough where I could have placed an online order somewhere. Wouldn't have been worth it with shipping and all anyways.

35 in a pack,that's a bit pricy. I was talking about 100 in a pack from my coin shop. John1

Getting difficult to beat their prices.

When you don't need a lot of the flips it's not really cost effective to order online with the postage.

I found hobby lobby to be super expensive. I get my stuff from valleycoin. Very unfriendly but the best prices I could find. They've always been cheaper than wizard for the supplies I buy.

As discussed here before, the Hobby Lobby 2x2s usually have a fair amount of cardboard dust on them, might want to have a bulb syringe or canned air to clean them thoroughly before placing coins in them. That dust can eventually leave toning marks, and not in a good way if in contact with a coin for an extended period of time.
I get mine locally for $3.50/100 count too, but in a pinch I've used the Hobby Lobby when the local coin shop was out.

I don't have the luxury of a LCS. Essentially ebay is my coin shop.

Not too pleased with this package. When you fold the flip, one side overhangs and I had to cut off the excess.
