 		As an alternative to sizing balls, I read in another post that you could get these strips from Target to help loose rings fit better. Has anyone seen these? How do they look and do they work? Is Target the only place to get them? I hope not because there isnt one near me. Also, what are they called?

There are several aftermarket type products that you can clip on or wrap around the bottom of rings to make them fit a little tighter.  Most jewelry stores and department stores have them.  You can even fake it with a piece of tape or string wrapped around the shank.  These work ok but are a little on the ugly side and, if you get the metal kind, you should be careful that they are on tight enough that they don’t move around or you can damage your ring.

 		Where in Target are you finding these strips? I can't seem to find them in my local Target.
