Help?

Two years ago, when I was in Tampa, I spotted something at a Barnes & Noble: poetry magnets for the fridge. White, square magnets with different words on them. Was that just a passing fashion or are those things a common enough thing to buy. I am thinking that these magnet-words might be useful for my English classes, so they can move words around and form sentences, but I'm not sure if this one application warrants spending money on such a magnet set. How many words are there in a set? How much are they?
Or maybe you have another suggestions? Cheap suggestions?
I have a magnetized board on which to stick the words....

Heh. When I was in college, I had a full wall of metal cabinets, so I had like 10 different themed sets.

My favorites were the 'love' one and the 'shakespearian' one, especially together. (There are few things more fun when you are 19 and having a party than watching people construct eloquent porn in your kitchen.)

I know that they aren't as popular now, but you can still find them.
