bjmcgee Report post Posted March 8, 2009 Try a Dollar Store for the cardboard coasters. Dollar Tree or Everything's a Dollar. They should have some. We use the cardboard coasters but I really don't remember where I bought them. Hope this helps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bjmcgee Report post Posted March 9, 2009 OK, I remembered where I got the cardboard coasters. Found them at a party city-like store. Had matching napkins, place mats, etc. Hope this helps, too. And, I'm a former Marine's mom. I assure you he does know what a bar looks like inside and so do I. However, I was only in a bar to pass out religious tracts!!!

Guest Wayne77590 Report post Posted March 9, 2009 Just a thought, but I prefer the sand stone coaster. They suck up more than an other I have found. Now being a Marine I never was in a bar either. Saw a lot of sailors in there though. Now when I'm in a restaurant I put salt on the drink napkin. It keeps the glass from sticking to the napkin when you pick it up. Don't know where I got that from. Sand Stone - that's the way to go. Even use them in the TOAD cup holders. Edited: Have someone go into the bar for your - give the waitress a big tip - and ask for some cardboard coasters. I'll bet they come out with a handful.

EaglesNest Report post Posted March 12, 2009 When I did a Google search for cardboard bar coasters......Jimmy Buffet's Margaritaville came up. 50 coasters for $6.95. There were more interesting ones on there too. You might just want to google it and order them online and save the gas money trying to find them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
