I buy all my fabric and batting online. Just can't afford to buy them here (unfortunately). |
JoAnns has the 90" roll (40 yards) for 429.99. The 45" roll (also 40 yards) is 159.99. That means you could get 2 45" rolls for 319.98. That's about $110 cheaper than buying the 90" roll, and you get just as much batting. Admittedly you have to piece it together if you need something between 45" and 90", but I almost always wind up piecing the batting somewhere anyway. I just don't understand the price discrepancy. Per square inch, the 90" roll is about 35% more expensive!

Someone posted during late December/early January that the batting was going to be going up $1 a yard in early February. I don't recall the exact date, but it was early, maybe 2/2 or 2/3.

Try here:
http://www.batt-mart.com/site/490194/page/93839 If you go to item #42, it is warm and natural, 90" x 30 yards for $234.66 = $7.82/yd. |
Hobby Lobby, with a coupon!

Beaniekins---check at the LQS. the suggested retail is around $20/meter. The chain store marks it up, so when they have a sale it is what the price should be. Same with their notions. Ruler at chain store--over $30, local quilt store--under $20--everyday. DMC floss--chain store--$1.25, local quilt store--$.75 everyday(suggested retail is $.89). Just because they are a chain, they are not always the best deal in town.

HOWEVER, be aware of the shipping....The Warm Co. ONLY does drop ship now! My friend wanted to order a roll and the shipping quoted to her was $210.00 as it is considered OVER sized now by ALL carriers!
|
Good price, regular price here and it is inflated is 30.00 Never seen it that reasonable here.
