[sci.electronics] fiber optics

Does anyone out there in netland know of a source for INEXPENSIVE
fiber optic material? I have the Edmund Sci. catalog and the
Digikey catalog but they are too expensive. It's wanted for use
in an arts and crafts class so low quality plastic type fibers
are fine.

( I can not believe the Koreans are paying 50 cents per meter for
  the fibers they put into those tacky lamps they sell at the swap
  meets around here :-) )

Thanks for any leads,

John
