For a half-second there, reading this immediately after Shiloh's post, I thought you were talking about maggots. Trying to be funny.

And I thought, "WOW! Those are some BIG FRIGGIN' MAGGOTS!"

Then I realized you weren't replying to Shiloh and it wasn't as funny.... =)

Me too, and trying to figure out who would craft with them. Maybe fishermen?

I use a lot of magnets to hide urban boxes in sneaky little places. Cost is a factor for me. I buy ProMag Ceramic Magnets, 52 per package, 3/4 inch, at Michael's, regular $7.99 per package. Also, use the 50% off coupon or I wait and use a 60% off members coupon. They are rather strong too. For large letterboxes, I use two magnets. I glue the magnets to the box with Super Glue "Gel" from Dollar Tree. You may not think you need 52 magnets, but you will find uses for them. They never spoil. LOL!
