Dry cleaners, Good Will or the Salvation Army. Walmart does have some but they are not the sturdy ones. Check with uniform suppliers that a person rents uniforms and turns them back in at the end of the week for fresh clean ones. Check with neighbors. They might have some you could have. Check at yard sales.
You can also go to www.freecycle.org and click on your state. At Free cycle, you can post a message on-line about what you need and if someone has them, They will email you back and you go pick up for free. Also, If you have something you want to give away, you can Post on there and if someone needs that item, they contact you and come to your house and pick it up.. Everything is free.

I needed about 50 hangers myself... would you believe I got them all for free at my local dry cleaners? Turns out they give every customer a new hanger, and the old ones just go in a heap... I'll bet you can do the same: and if you can, well... share those points.

It is simply coated wire. It can be a variety of metals, comes in all different sizes and colors and the coating is usually vinyl. You can buy the smaller sizes at hobby/craft shops and garden stores and larger sizes, up to about no. 9, from a building supply.

Go somewhere, where employees where uniforms, like an auto shop or something like that. Normally tons of them around. Most likley you can get some for free

We through all of ours away...never thought anyone could use them.
Check the thrift stores. These ruin clothing so people do not use them anymore....or at least people who do not want there cloths ruined.
Check ebay? Ioffer? Hopefully others here in answers has some they will send you?
Good luck!

Yes, a dry cleaner would be the cheapest place since they buy them in bulk. Explain what you're doing and maybe they'll cut you a deal.

Usually dry cleaners use them. Go to a dry cleaners and ask if you can buy some of theirs or ask them where to get them. There's probably a supplier someplace.

Ask your local dry cleaner where he gets them. Maybe he will give you some.
