| 227126 | 2004-04-04 22:29:00 | Yep, no catches, that's the question folks. I've tried Warehouse Stationery and just about every other place I can think of. My local WHS doesn't even have CD jewel cases at present, the shelves have been rearranged to fill the space where they were, and I notice that some of the retail stores like Harvey Norman and Noel Leemings don't stock CD cases anymore either. I was after some more twin CD cases but gave up trying. Cheers Billy 8-{) |

| 227128 | 2004-04-04 23:06:00 | Hi Billy I doubt that Middle Earth is ChCh, so I am not sure what shops you have. However if you have a Plastic Box in The Shire or Mordor or wherever you are, you can get them there. I have bought twin cases at PB as well. If by some bizarre coincidence you do live here in the swamp, I have quite a few singles you can have for the cost of a bit of pedal power. Plastic Box is a chain that used to have another name, but I fergit it for now. Was it the Plastic Factory, or something like that? John |

| 227132 | 2004-04-05 03:07:00 | You can buy floppies in single cases, in places like paper pluis and Whitcoulls. But they're not cheap. :-( $2 don't seem to have even CD cases these days. I suppose their stock list depends on what is thrown in to top off the container in China or wherever. |

| 227134 | 2004-04-05 06:24:00 | I've got floppies coming out my ears so I don't want to buy more. All I want is about 10-20 floppy jewel cases for my special boot disks and other things that I want to keep on floppies. Doesn't look like Pico sells them. :( Or anybody else for that matter! Cheers Billy 8-{) |

| 227135 | 2004-04-06 02:28:00 | There used to be little carry boxes which would hold 3 or 5 or so floppies. You used to get one when you bought a Xerox word-processor (typewriter with a floppy drive and a processor), holding the two disks of software. I seem to remember DSE selling similar boxes. I once had a DSE folder which held the floppies in little pouches, which were exceptionally good at ripping off the sliding shutters. X-| Mostly I use zip-lock bags now. ;-) |
