The short answer: yes. Hobby Lobby sells Perler beads in the craft aisle: single-color jars, mixed buckets, and kits, plus pegboards and ironing paper. Their weekly 40% off coupon usually applies to individual items.
Hobby Lobby is a solid choice for bead shopping because the coupon makes single jars noticeably cheaper. Just remember they close on Sundays, which trips up weekend shoppers.
What to expect in the aisle
- Single-color jars: the usual Perler lineup in most stores.
- Mixed buckets: good for beginners, often near the jars.
- Kits: themed sets with boards and patterns, useful as gifts.
- Boards and paper: standard and shaped pegboards plus ironing paper.
- Store brand: their own beads sometimes sit next to Perler; colors can differ slightly.
Getting the best deal
- Bring the weekly coupon, or pull it up on your phone at checkout.
- Use it on the most expensive single item, usually the biggest bucket.
- Compare per-bead price: the coupon makes big jars an especially good deal.
- Check stock online first so you do not drive there for empty shelves.
