!!! Important Question - Need answer FAST if anyone has it !!! (CASE CLOSED)

I need to get about 20,000-25,000 of the red, white, and blue lapel ribbon pins that you see people wearing all around. I need them by Friday. Any suggestions or do you know of where I can get this many in this short of time or just know companies that make these? I linked a pictures of an example of what I am looking for. It's an example, there are many versions, this is just one, but I am open to other types.

Already did. Sorry about that.

Walmart you say? I don't have any near me, plus I don't think they would have 20,000 of these on hand. I think I need to special order them. Any other suggestions?

You probably can buy some of the 3-color ribbon (~2000 yards), some glue and 20,000-25,000 safety pins and make them yourself. If you are doing this for an organization, maybe you can sit everybody in a room and start crankin' them out. I'd rather buy them pre-made, of course.

Well, what you could do is contact a local highschool and ask to talk to a vice principal. Let them know of the situation and see if they could help. Most schools would jump on the chance to do this type of thing. They could have their art students make them for you and you could donate an agreed upon amount of $ to the school or to the red cross in the schools name.

Thanks oneye. I called one of those places and they didn't have what I needed, but referred me to one that did. It's kingpins.net

I think they might be able to help me. THANKS!

Azazyel, great suggestion, but I need guarantees that they will be done, they have to look good, and they are for business, so there is too much risk there. Great idea though!

They're out of stock, don't think this is going to happen. Thanks for all your help everyone. Consider this case closed.
