    I guess I should have gone today when I was near. I had a coupon in the car and need red fabric for the R/W/B swap I joined. I was trying to be good but now I'll go tomorrow and spend more in gas than if I went today!
    You just had to tell me didn't you? :?

    Oooooo! I had so much fun buying the clearance fabric at 50%off, but even more exciting was finding a 23x70 Olfa cutting mat, originally $125, clearanced for $50!!!! They had two left & I hadn't started looking at fabric when I saw it, so I asked the clerk to hold it for me while I shopped! I went into JoAnns planning to spend only $25 & left $80 later!! LOL, they got me again! :-)

    Someone mentioned the sale yesterday and it took me about 5 minutes before I was out the door. Spent an hour there. Total of eighty something dollars. Cheapest I've gotten out of there. I have stayed away from fabric stores for a long time before that.

    I went to Hancock's yesterday. Came home to find a 40% off coupon in my mailbox. Grrr! Wish it would have come BEFORE I went shopping. I'm not driving back to use the coupon though. It's fifty miles for me. I hope to use the coupon in Raleigh next week-end.

    I was being really good and spending less than $20 for my last two trips to the fabric store. I went in told myself less that $20 and spend about $50 instead. I keep telling myself it was half price.

    Double unfair! Not payday, and nearest Joanns is 150 miles away.
