Oh, OK. I actually usually get those from the same place I get the markers from; I get 10" x 7/8" size, which is big enough for my use but a lot cheaper than the 12" size.

Leonards also carries them, and some other places.

Rivka, what size markers do you use, and where do you get them? Thank you.

I generally get a dozen at a time direct from the company I posted the link to earlier; here's the link again:

A couple of farm or garden supply stores in this area do carry them also -- for example Sauder's south of Penn Yan generally has them; if you look around you might find them somewhere near you, which would be easier if you just want to try one.

I like the narrower tip of the two offered, but that would depend on how much you're trying to write on what size tag.
