The Best Bead Price On November 9th, 2010, we visited four of the top bead wholesaler's Internet websites in order to create a price comparison between like sized and colored beads. The different bead wholesalers offer their beads in different case sizes, so we attempted to reduce the cost down to the per dozen cost in case lot sizes. The beads that we compared were those that we thought would be the most typical throw beads thrown by Krewe members in a parade. The vendor with the lowest price for the bead category have been highlighted in blue below. | Need Krewe Products?If your looking for Krewe Stuff, we've got it!
