Poly/plastic baggies for prints

[balaa]

Does anyone know where I can purchase poly bags for matted prints. I want to make sure I protect the prints/originals I put in the art show since I just found out they don't allow glass in frames at the AC art show. I need mostly 11x14 baggies and some larger. Most places I found only sell in bulk packs of 100 or more bags and usually have a minimum purchase of 50$...

Thank ya in advance :)

You can get them at my work... I'll see how much they are. How many do you need? I can also get backing board. I also get 40% off.

doi why didn't I think to ask you first..oh thats right..Im a retard. I'm not sure how many I need but definetly not a hundred..I was gonna ask at michaels what they would charge but figured I'd ask here first. I could use some backing board too..I have smaller 20x30 acid free foam board but the moth piece needs something bigger that that... I'd really appreciate it *teases you with her juicy pickle*

Aw drat! I wish I would have bought some of those for my collage works. I didn't know they sold such sleeve things. :( I remember asking my local Hobby Lobby about something similar...but the people there had no idea what I was talking about and were quite unhelpful. -_-" The only thing they told me about was their "shrink wrapping" machine. However, they wanted over $6 for just one picture! =\ (Granted, the matted artwork was over 8x11 inches...but still it's too much to pay for one plus 2 others). Well, I guess now I know more or less what to aks/look for. :)

You know, I was thinking... you could use those clear plastic wraps used for food. :) They may be thin but they should work pretty well.

As for the poly art bags, I saw some at Utrecht today; they were expensive though... I don't think you want to play with them. :X
