In preparing for the virtual crop this weekend, I was looking through supplies and realized that I only have three rolls of adhesive. I haven't ordered anything for a long time since my local store is great. They are taking online orders but it doesn't look like they have adhesive on their website. So, I am looking for recommendations for good websites as well as favorite brands of adhesive. Thanks!
ETA that I looked at their website again and they do have Nicole tape runners (is that any good? Price is good) or the EZ Runner that I usually use. I might also be able to order from Michael's and pick up online but am wondering if there is something better than either the Nicole tape runners or the EZ Runner.

I use scrapbookpal for adhesives. Best price I've found for my herma dotto.

I buy most of my products from Scrapbook.com and A Cherry On Top. I use a couple other smaller companies, too.
I use Scotch double sided tape. I've used it for close to 20 years and my pages are still holding. The last time I went to the grocery store I bought a bunch of rolls.
I keep feeling like I should use scrapbook adhesive runners because that seems to be the "proper" thing to do, but the tape is so readily available and it works.

Not sure about adhesives, as I use the Glue Glider Pro. As for my favorite online stores, I mostly use Paper Issues, or Scrapbook.com. Paper Issues is a one woman show, and Cassie is AWESOME to work with.

That's what I used before I got my ATG gun. I wasted so much adhesive loading the thing (user error, I am sure). I now just cut off the piece I need, rub my finger across it, and pull the tape off! If you've used a Xyron X machine, it's that type of process. A little more work but I like that it is thinner than double sided tape.
iamkristinl16 I get mine on Amazon. I've heard tape depot is good too.

Maybe you could call your local store and ask about adhesive? My favorite is my ATG gun. Refills are really inexpensive and it’s just the right level of stickiness. The initial investment in the gun is a little pricey and it’s big and bulky.

I use the Kokuyo dot liner — I get my refills via Amazon.

I personally don't like it, and won't use it, but obviously, I'm in the minority.

Scrapbook.com is my go to online store. Shipping isn't the cheapest, but they are super fast. I use the EZ Runner the most.

I ended up getting in touch with the owner of the local store and she walked through the store and got different items for me. I bought a larger EZ Runner so we will see how that works.
