Default Magnets

Let me first say I did not get my magnet with my Misti. I picked it up a Ben Franklins. Today my one magnet jumped to the other and when they collided one of the magnets broke in half! Just thought I'd /warn you to keep those bugger's away from each other! I knew they jumped and pinched but I didn't know they could break!;)

I thought I was careful but I guess I'll need to watch closer yet! I bought one to try. When I realized it worked well I bought a second. It works well even through the foam sheet. I try to send them to their own corners but just let them get a little too close. And they're expensive. I could only find it in a one pack for $3.49 each.
