    I happen to stop in a store named Alco and they were running a special on their fabrics. 2 yards for $3.00 and if you bought $30.00 in the store, they took an additional $10.00 off your bill. I figured that if I bought 20 yards of fabric at 1.50 a yard, that comes to 30.00. Then they took off an additional 10.00, that brought it down to 1.00yard. (WOW!) They had some nice Thimbleberries, South Sea, Timeless Treasures. I went back yesterday and bought 20 more yard. Here is a picture of my 40 yards.

    I stocked up on some WOW and COW and COC.

    I've never heard of Alco. Is it a fabric store?

    Alco is like a the dime stores used to be. One step above Dollar General and not near as big as Walmart. The one I went to is located in Hartford City, IN, about 30 minutes north of Muncie.
