I don’t know what the actual material is, but it’s just for wrapping packages. It’s about 3/4 inch wide on a roll. They used to be in assorted colors everywhere, even drugstores. I can’t find them! Not at Michaels, not at Joanne Fabrics, not at CVS. All they have is that skinny stuff. I do see Christmas ribbon like this, but typically on a roll that has various colors, never individual rolls like I want. Any help is appreciated!
Is the ribbon more satin-fabric like or is it the kind that is good for curling? The satin like ribbon I bought for years at JoAnn Fabrics. The curling type I noticed is stocked at dollar stores.
Drug stores like CVS carry a pretty wide selection of ribbon—curling and the 3/4 to 1” wide ones that one makes bows with. The even wider ribbon with metal to help keep shape is sold at cost aft places and big box stores like Costco.
It’s not skinny enough to curl, but it’s that same material. It’s the kind we all grew up with. It’s not satin, although I think it’s called satin. I’ll try Costco and dollar tree. It wasn’t at our CVS.
Hallmark stores should have it.
Then again, maybe not. Everyone started wrapping with real ribbon at some point, and now they stock real ribbon. But I agree - I’d check Dollar Tree. Or maybe a party store? Maybe Target, Walmart or Walgreens? Grocery store?
As much as I dislike Amazon, I would start there. Is this something that would work?

I would try Hobby Lobby.
Party City? My first thought was Hallmark Store.
These are all great places to try to stock up. @BunsenBurner , it’s still a bit to narrow and bendable but thanks.
I’m looking for the same ribbon as all the bows use.
This one is wider - 1 1/4 inch. Check the customer’s photo - she used it for gift wrap.

How about PaperMart?
Our mom and pop stationary story carries all kinds of ribbons. If you have one in your town, check there!
Did you look at Target? https://www.target.com/s?searchTerm=satin+ribbon&facetedValue=7cg1n&Nao=0
Is this what you want? https://www.papermart.com/satin-finish-poly-ribbon/id=8307
@my-3-sons …YES! I believe that’s exactly what I want. It’s Satin “finish”! The old fashioned kind! I do have a local Party Tree and Hallmark I’m going to pop in first just down the road. If I can’t find them at a brick or mortar, I’ll order these. Thanks everyone for taking the time to try to help me find this type!
Found some at Walmart, Tuesday Morning and Big Lots.
Hope this helps.
