I've checked online at Amazon, ace hardware, walmart and also in Meijer store but I can't find paint strainer bags. Anyone know?

That's strange. Should be at any hardware or paint store or any place else that carried paint. Home Depot or Lowes, definitely will. Or just go to the many raw food sites that carry the juice strainer bags-some do give good deals if you buy in quantity.

Alissa sells quality nut bags here, in her store under Appliances. I like to buy from Alissa to thank her for this wonderful forum!

I just found them on Greenfeet for $4.50 for 2. Guess I'll order from them. Thanks anyway.

I just received a few days ago the bags I ordered from a very nice lady on ebay and am extremely pleased with them so far.
Give it a look: http://cgi.ebay.ca/5-ALMOND-NUT-MILK-nylon-nutmilk-sprouter-bags-raw-food_W0QQitemZ380116145813QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_De faultDomain_0?hash=item5880b01695&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14
Hope this won't be seen as spam, I just thought I'd share my own success with them :)

got mine at homedepot , theyve both 1 gallon / 5 gallon size
i get the 5 gallon then use them over a big around 4 gallon
stainless steel soup pot
the bags elastic hem fits perfect over the lip of the pot
then i just pour whatever into it then close bag around the pulp and squeeze into pot
it'd be alot more of a hassle doing this with the one gallon size because the 5 gallon allows more room for error
two 5 gallons at HD cost about $3
I bought all mine at Sherwin Williams for cheapcheap.
But now after reading MIroman's post, I'll have to get one of those 5 gallon babies at HD! *Ü*

That's sounds good. You say the 5 gallon is better than the 1 gallon?
We have Menard's and Lowe's here. One of them should have them. If I get in the paint department I'll be looking at paint though as I love to repaint my rooms. I think it's time.

yes the 5 gallon size being much larger / wider opening makes it easier to pour stuff into
* at lowes i recently bought OLYMPIC FAST HIDE brand paint in semi gloss to paint kitchen ceiling and it covered very well at a cost of only just over 10 bucks per gallon
* ever see a flower bed of solely pink yarrow = very pretty ,
very medicinal also as ive used it for external bleeding and
it causes coagulation within a few minutes . plus a very warming
tea if freezing in winter , it makes me sweat .
i DARE you to drink a pot of it in the hot august month ....:eek::D

I used to pay almost ten bucks for nut mylk bags.
No need when we have sooo much else to buy ....these paint strainer bags work well and very very cheap. Mine were a lil over a buck.

I raised a red yarrow one time and they are pretty but the next year they reseeded and went back to white. I will try the tea this winter as I do get cold easy on raw.
