Fiskars 45 mm Classic Stick Rotary Cutter

I see that Walmart is pretty much sold out of all the 10 Packs of Blade Refills, but Amazon has a good deal on a 10 pack of refills here.


Walmart Info

Most items SHIP FREE to home with $35 purchase

Or order online and choose FREE Store Pickup (if available)

NOTE:  Clearance items are not always available in your store. They might be only in the warehouse. Many items can be ordered online and sent to your store and you can pick it up for free.  If you don’t like or it does not fit, you can return it directly to the store. So easy!

Availability can change at any time.  Once the clearance deals are posted, stuff sells out quick so these deals may be limited or no longer available.

SHOPPING TIP: If you get close to the $35 minimum, simply order other stuff you always buy including groceries! There are more and more grocery items available on Walmart.com now that you can have shipped to your home. I love ordering the big and heavy stuff for home delivery like 20 rolls of toiler paper or big jugs of laundry detergent, stuff like that. I do about half of my grocery shopping on Walmart.com now. So convenient!
