    After much anticipation and delay of one sort or another we are going to get the reset started today in our fabric department. (WM)
    A lot of the merchandise has been coming in and I've made room for it when I had the room, but so much more has been waiting for the room to put it.
    Today and tomorrow will be hectic, stressful and long (even though I'm only working an 8 hour shift it will seem longer. ;)

    Can't wait to see all the new stuff!

    I'll let you know what's new.

    Well I hope all the WM are doing this. Our little bring back section is nothing to get excited about. a few bolts, and alot of crafty stuff. Very disappointed.

    Thank you for letting us know. A manager here at one of our Walmarts said they are getting some flat folds in to test and if they do well, they will get more. 5 yards for $5 right now.

    I was amazed the other day when I went into one of our WM. You years and years it's only been one WM on Military Hwy that carried fabric and we have several WMs but none of them carried it. A store closer to me was selling bolts of fabric and they had an isle dedicated to fabric so I'm hoping that they carry more. The other one is great because it's open all night but this one is really close to me so that is great as well.

    We have added two aisles and another row of shelves! More fabrics, packaged vinyl, FQ cuts, quilt/blanket kits, more notions, more fabric, more crafts!
    Less/no flowers, less wicker baskets, about the same amount of yarn.

    Today was hectic and tomorrow will be more hectic as the management wants us to get it all done by 1PM tomorrow! LOL
