I read on this forum that walmart is having a sale on brother sewing machines. (Project runway) and SQ9000 which I bought. There is a discussion on this forum but I cannot find it tonight. very knowledgable people. Haven't tried it yet.
I keep mentioning thatbwhen I go to the fabric dept. I also buy from many other depts. And automotive is much bigger than their fabric dept. So they must think hubby spends more than I do which is not possible!

Long story short, I drive back home to Leavenworth, and go out to my local Walmart. It is a totally new store and I've been told, one of the largest in the chain but NO fabric.....just the FQ's and pre-cuts. I deceided to check out their ''price match'' policy and took my recept up to the check out and WOW.....they sold me all the FQ's I wanted for 75 cents. Didn't even look at my receipt. It is one of the better things that Walmart has deceided to do.....

Ours were marked down to 75 cents too,but two days later they were 30 cents,,,so I grabbed a lot!!!

I wanted more of the same fabric to make a throw. I like shopping at Walmart, I know I can afford anything in the store. The highest price item in it is what, an IPad?

This I didn't know. That is wonderful. Just keep the sample of and receipt of the thing you bought when you go to the other store, huh?

This is wonderful for people who have several stores in their area!

I was wondering if they will price match from Joann's sale flier. I would like some patterns now that I am a new grammie and JAs puts them on sale from time to time. Problem is they are over an hour away.

The walmart closes to my house is 10% or more than the other 3 stores that are within 10 miles of my house and they will not match another walmart price. So I drive the extra 7 miles if I don't need it right away. More money for fabric that way. LOL

I have noticed that not all WalMarts on my side of the state have fabric. I think our WalMart heard loud and clear from the folks in my area. Fabric returned about 6 weeks after it was removed.
