* Digital Scale - $54.95 on Amazon.com (This was with Super Saving Free Shipping, I saved $6.95)
* 25 Posters 11" x 14" - $47.62 at Kinkos on Abercorn St. (Across from Michaels, etc.) (This includes tax) + $12.00 to be approved (stamped) for hanging on campus (certain locations ONLY) (This price was due to the fact that these posters counted as a Classified. Then I got a 20% discount for being a SCAD student. So here's the run down: Regular ads - $20, Classified ads - $15, SCAD discount 20%, which equals $12).
* Silicone - $76.41 from Silicones, Inc. of High Point, NC. (This includes shipping and a SCAD student discount. For students silicone is sold at $6.95 a pound, where as I believe it's normally $9. My order was 9 lbs., i.e. 1 gallon, of silicone and 1 lb. of activator/catalyst. This leaves $6.91 shipping and I believe I got it the very next day). (On a side note, they send you a packet with a list of their products with each order).
* Liquid Latex - $61.00 from Burman Industries of So. Cal. (This included shipping as well). (I'd give you the breakdown here, but I forget at the moment. However, it is 1 gallon of latex). (Side note, this is the company I would use to buy WED Clay and Hydracal Plaster if I wanted to make textured skins, which I may still do. These can also be purchased at FX Warehouse Inc.). (Also for skins you would need Bondo Applicators, which I bought at the Home Depot and can't remember how much they cost, but they can also be found at WalMart with the car stuff).
* Rubber Cement - $5.35 at Primary Art Supply on Broughton St. (This includes tax. And is just an average sized bottle).
* Paper Reams - $? I purchased these in a giant box on sale and with my rewards card from Staples on Victory Dr. (I'll have to get the receipt out of my car). (Word to the wise, their rewards cards are free, I did not know this.)
* Tie-Downs - $9.44 from Home Depot on Victory Dr. (Right next to Staples). (Each baggy cost 99 cents). (I may need to order others online).
* Fake Blood - $6.41 from Party City on Abercorn St. (This is in the same shopping center as the Kinkos). (This price includes tax on a pint of fake blood. I will warn however that this was in the Halloween section, since it is October and may not be a year round product but they may have it all of the time on their website).
* Straws - 88 cents at WalMart on Montgomery Crossroads. (This price does not include tax as I bought a bunch of other stuff as well).
* Plastic Cups - I had this item on hand so I'm not sure how much they cost but I purchased them at Kroger on E. Gwinnett St.
* Wax Paper Cups - Approx. $3 or $4 at WalMart. (Again, this was on a large order of things so I'm not sure how much they cost.)
* Craft Sticks - Approx. $1-3 at WalMart. (Same issue as above).
* Glue Gun - I had this item before (purchased at Michaels) hand and was given a ton of glue sticks, so I'm not sure. However, it is a small glue gun and works just fine.
* Crystal Clear - I bought this ages ago so I don't remember how much it cost and I believe I purchased it at WalMart. My assumption would be that it costs between $4 and $6.
* Insta-Cure/Insta-Set/De-Bonder - I bought these ages ago as well. I bought the Insta-Set and Cure from Bull St. Station (on Bull St.) and the De-Bonder at Primary.
* Makeup Sponges - These I got for free from my mom but can be purchased almost anywhere, CVS is a good bet though.
* Wet & Dry Sandpaper Pack - I'm guessing this was about $4 or $5 at WalMart and can't remember exactly.
* Roma Plastalina Clay - This I bought from the Utrecht art supply store in San Francisco (the one on Market St. I don't remember how much it cost). (I used to attend the Academy of Art University in San Francisco, CA. My stomping grounds. They even had a Utrecht store in their Foundations Department; something I think would be very smart of SCAD to do). All this being said, you can replace this and the Crystal Clear with Regular Sculpey which is about $12 and can purchased at Primary, Ex Libris, AC Moore and Michaels.) (Extra Note: AC Moore has a free rewards club card and Michaels often will give you coupons with purchases: they most often are for 40% one item).
* Propoxy 20 - This is about $6 or $7 at Sandpiper Supply on Bull St. (I had this from Conceptual Maquette Design with Professor Larison). (Word to the wise, this is what Professor Hal Miles swears by, don't by the cheap crap from Ex Libris!)
* Foam Rubber Sheets - I had these and got some more from Jenna Wylie for free, but I'm going to pay her back in some way. However, they can be purchased online for about $3-4 for the 1/4" and I forget how much for the 1/2", but I really dislike the 1/2", it's hard to get it to stick with the rubber cement. If you don't want to order these online, the closest place to get them is in Charleston, NC at Hobby Town USA. The man who answered the phone is really nice and carries them in the DU-BRO brand as well as other brands. (The hours are I think 9-8pm everyday except Sunday, which opens at noon and closes at 5pm). They can be purchases online from Hobby Town USA's website or Tower Hobbies. (Let it be known that if you try to find them anywhere else, not only will the store not have them, but the staff will have no idea what you are talking about and will look at you funny. Ha.)
* Tools and Safety Gear - These I had but got from Alexander Hall, Hal Miles in the Stop Mo room, Home Depot and WalMart. In other words, you're kinda on your own with these ones.
