patchwork wallpaper... I NEED SCRAPS ASAP!!

For the past two months I have been scouting Lowe's, the neighborhood thrift stores, even a variety of other areas local home stores, all to try and find wallpaper sample books. Apparently most stores simply toss them as soon as the paper is discontinued! BLASPHEMOUS!!! don't these people know the gold mine they have at their fingertips!?!?! So many crafts, so many projects, so many walls, so many pieces of furniture in need of a good wallpaper scrap collage!! I'm so depressed first because hello people it's called recycling and repurposing! and secondly, I can't seem to get a hold of any of these glorious books and here are a few reasons why I so desperately, and I mean DESPERATELY want them....
