    Default Halloween Fabric at Joann's

    I went to Joann's today mainly to replenish my Halloween stash. Halloween fabric is NOT on sale. I saw "50% off Easter fabrics" and "50% off St. Patrick's Day fabrics" but anything Halloween was full price. I asked the lady who was cutting to check which she did and she was told by the manager that yes, full price is in effect. One of the fabrics I was interested in was $12.49/yard. Do they think anyone will pay that price? They are going to have a lot of bolts of fabric to put away. This was in NJ; maybe other stores have different pricing but if that's all you're going for, call first and maybe save yourself a trip.

    It's probably because Halloween has become such a popular holiday. I don't need any Halloween fabric right now, but thanks for the tip.

    I bought some at my local JoAnn's yesterday (Sunday) and it was 1/2 price. I got a beautiful black with goldish/orange glitter motifs on it and am going to give it to my DD to make some table runners to sell at her annual craft sale at her church.

    I've noticed Halloween fabric in particular often doesn't go on sale as quickly as other holiday fabrics at Joann's. Usually 3-4 days after Halloween it'll finally go on sale. I should swing by after work today and check, I adore Halloween fabric! All the owls and ravens and fun kicky colors...yay!

    I would guess there will be a delay on reducing it since it had been on sale for so long . I think it was 50-60% off here for several weeks before the holiday

    When it is not on sale, that is when I use my coupon. You would think with all the Halloween candy on sale half off that the fabric would be too.
