    Yesterday the creative cuts were marked down to $3.98 for 2 yards. Regular price $7.97. When I checked out the price was $1.99 for 2 yards. Some fat quarters and 5 inch squares (100) were $2.74. Some of the fat quarters were 31 cents. Of course I walked back and picked up several more.
    This store still says they are not getting the bolts back but they are reducing the price of the fabric.
    The price was worth walking back twice to get more fabric.

    Nice. But too bad they wont be getting bolts back :(
    Our store has gotten a very nice selection of bolts in recently. They were one store that never took out the fabric department. Sounds like you got a great deal!

    Our store shows no sign of fabric returning, darn. I keep hoping since I have to drive at least 45 min. one way to buy fabric. Online shopping has become my best resource, but then I can't get my "fix" of looking and feeling all the beautiful fabric.

    I am telling you. the louder you "yell" about the fabric being brought back the better your chances are of getting it back. write email and call corporate and make sure you are telling the "management" of your local walmart. the more people and the louder we ask the better the chance will be that we are heard.

    It's mostly the management of the local store if the store is one of the can if you want to sell fabric or not. I can tell a big difference in the WalMarts that have knowledgeable sewers in the dept from the ones that prefer crafting.

    We still have our bolts, but they did bring in all the precuts too. We never have any good deals like that though. We dont have enough competition here, so don't mark down anything :(

    I was surprised that it was that price. There is not any competition in Rogersville, TN. The nearest fabric store is in Kingsport.
