I would be thrilled!!! My shoulders are all getting the bumps from the hangers sticking into the upper arms. Hate it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hangers---space-vs-money#post-531305 Sat, 04 Feb 2012 19:44:19 +0000 cobaltblue 531305@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The bulk of my wooden hangers does annoy me, I confess. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hangers---space-vs-money#post-531300 Sat, 04 Feb 2012 19:40:23 +0000 lyn* 531300@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Have you tried Winners (TJ Maxx)? I found a package of $10 for 36. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hangers---space-vs-money#post-531295 Sat, 04 Feb 2012 19:33:06 +0000 Mo 531295@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have been looking for a nice matching set of petite wooden hangers for the closets back home. I plan to have them ship while we drive across the country so they are there when we arrive and I can hang my stuff up on them upon arrival. No need to find room for them in the back of the truck if I don't have to!<br /> My basic dilemma is this - one set of hangers is 1/16 of an inch thinner than another, but it is also more expensive. The thinner are $66 for a set of 60 vs $58 for a set of 100 for the regular width! I probably don't need the full 100. I am assuming I have either 3 1/2 or 4 feet of closet rod in my closet. It's 4 jean and sweater stacks on the shelf wide lol. After some math, I realize that going from my plastic tubular hangers to the thin 3/8" wood hangers will take up 3 3/4" more hanging space per 60 hangers. If I go to the regular 7/16" hangers, I lose 7 1/2" per 60 hangers.<br /> So what would you value more - the space itself or the money saved by going for the bulk larger hanger? (I do have a coat closet that is about 3' wide that I could use another 20 of the hangers in if I did go for the budget 100 set - that would leave 20 random extras for breakage or whatever)<br /> I can't believe I'm so torn between saving space and saving money!! </p>
