Looking for thingy to remove pilling from fabric

I called up the sewing machine store in Davis looking for this:

http://www.drugstore.com/products/prod.asp?pid=75942&catid=142316&trx=CRT-PLST&trxp1=17008&trxp2=75942

but they do not have it. I don't want to pay $$ to have it shipped, when it really only costs a few dollars. Does anyone know where I could get one locally? It doesn't have to be this brand, just something that will remove the pilling from normal fabric (not just sweaters).

Thanks!

I've bought them in drugstores before. I found it either near the little sewing kits or near the lint rollers. You could also call Windsor Button to see if they carry it.

I have one that I do not use and you are more than welcome to it.

um, longshot, but I know for a fact that Target has the lint rollers from that very same company/brand (since I have one right here:)

I was just in the North Cambridge Laundromat (http://www.yelp.com/biz/north-cambridge-laundromat-and-dry-cleaning-cambridge) (just outside Davis, on Mass Ave at the bottom of Cameron Ave) and they had a little display of this sort of thing. Not the same brand, but much like.

I also have an extra one that you are welcome to; I have two of them for no apparent reason, so I don't mind parting with one.
