That's what this looks like to me, did you click on the middle 2 links, they are craft suppliers?

Hey Kid;
I don't have any MR's to look at so I am assuming it's something like this.

It could be your just lokking in the wrong department and the sales people don't know what it is ... AKA Pipe Cleaners . You can try again at the Craft stores if you like, or maybe just order online.

Hi There;
Sorry to say but I think you are out of luck. My wife wanted some for a xmas project a few years ago. We looked every where but had no luck. We where told that it is no longer manufactured. Your only hope is to find a craft store that has some old stock.
