Flower shaped pool noodles

These would be okay, right? Target had them, but no regular round ones. These ones were like a flower shape if you look at the end of it, if that makes sense. They seemed pretty sturdy, maybe slightly more so than the plain round one actually. I ended up buying one anyway because it's all I've seen so far.

The cashier said, "Wow, we have these already?" I told her I've been waiting and watching for these for a few months and she looked at me like I was crazy.

The ideal noodle is the round with no hole. But around here, we can't find those buggers. We buy the round and flower. I like the flower because they nest together nicely when doing a pyramid.

Yeah, I know ideally the solid core noodles are best, but I've never seen those anywhere and can't really justify buying online because you have to buy in such huge quantities and pay shipping. I kind of figured the flower shape would be easier for pyramids. :thumbsup:

I couldn't think of why these would be bad but figured I should ask just in case. Thanks!

Not sure if you have a Dollar Tree in your area but my Dollar Tree just got in the solid round ones a couple of weeks ago.

Really?! I do have a couple of those stores near me, I used to go in there all the time with Jessica but haven't gone since Ty was born. I love that store! Thanks for the tip, I never even thought to check there.

I checked one of the Dollar Tree stores in my area tonight, no noodles. I'll keep checking back though, they didn't have much summer stuff in yet at all. I'll just use the flower noodles from Target if necessary until they get them in. :thumbsup:

I got some at our Dollar Tree today, but they have a hole in the middle. But they're still pretty firm!

A little OT but does baby depot still carry the sit rite ones? I went to get one of those sunshine kid gray ones but they didn't have any.

Yes, they are just noodles, really, but kinda spendy.
