I have amassed way too many Addi's to keep track of. I need a cheap but sturdy case. I have lots of needles so I need something substantial. Anyone got some SPAM for me?

I want one, too. My husband got me a beautiful case for Valentine's this year, but it only really works for straight needles. My circs are starting to go haywire.

You can organize them in ziploc bags, punch holes in the bags and put them in a 3 ring binder. Or put them in the little bags and put them on a keychain ring.
I have a needle roll that holds dpn's and circs too. You can just make a needle roll and make the pockets bigger.

I keep my circulars in their original package then I put them all in a plastic baggie (the ones that you get your SOSs in, they are plastic with a string pull tie). This works great because I can see through it so I don't have to "dig" into the bag to find what I am looking for. I also have one pair of double pointed that I keep in there.

I made a roll needle case like the freebie on Theresa's site. You could just do both rows w/ fat pockets.
I noticed this at Joann: http://www.joann.com/catalog.jhtml?CATID=82324&PRODID=79643
I think it would be cheaper to go with a cd case.

Pam gave me a great idea. She keeps her Addis in the original baggie and puts all the baggies in a Robeez bag. The 3-4 year size bag is just right.

Ruth, robeez are little soft shoes that we buy for our babies, and the bags are the packaging! It's sort of a recycling effort!
Maybe you can find someone to send one to you... but it isn't something that you can outright buy.

The shoes are totally worth it too, though! Niels still wears them. He likes his soccer ball shoes (http://www.robeez.com/product_DynamicMVA.asp?Spacer=&PriceCat=2&SID=EFLB 100RTMKM9MJH4N05912HADK31T&StartID=32&PF_ID=SOC2RE DD+&deptID=20).
I use the bags for lots of things. I actually use one for my knitting accessories. It's nice because I can see everything. We have also used it to carry trains and cars on a trip. They're multi-purpose! :D

I just bought a pair of Robeez a couple weeks ago, but never thought to re-use the bag. Doh!
