Anybody got a good (affordable but quality) source of foam rollers? The local stores (walmart, target, sports authority) have some for $25, which seems like a lot for a piece of foam. I'm sure they are not high quality as can be had online either, i.e. will lose shape and/or firmness over time, but I don't know that for a fact.

I found this:

They take PayPal, which is a plus for me. A 6"x36" "Firm" roller is only $16.41, but shipping adds another $16 for a total of $32. Maybe it's the size (3 feet) that causes the shipping to be pretty high? Can't be the weight...

Anyone got a better source?

Tim, I got mine from Perform Better (http://www.performbetter.com/). They tend to be a little expensive, but have top quality goods. Here is the link to their foam roller page: Perform Better Foam Rollers (http://www.performbetter.com/SearchResult.aspx_Q_CategoryID_E_235)

Thanks, that's an interesting site. Looks like it's a wash though for me (for the particular model I'm looking at it). The base price is more, but the shipping is less, but there is also sales tax because I'm in FL.
