Pipe cleaners -- I haven't seen those in years, and I actually need
some for cleaning crevices.

Yes, this is a serious question: what sort of store carries them?

Hereabouts, pipe cleaners are now mostly sold in hobby shops and
"dollar stores," shelved with the plastic scissors, coloured stickers
and paraphernalia for toddlers' "construction projects."
