I can always use a spool of thread and like to try new brands so I buy a new brand if there is nothing else I really want. I don't feel guilty if I don't. I have been in quiet a few quilt shops that have no thread at all for sale. That makes no sense to me but there are more then you think that don't sell thread.

If the people in the shop are nice I always buy something (when we travel and I stop at a shop). If the people aren't nice I don't feel guilty. 4 times a month I have quilt clubs at LQS's around here. I don't feel guilty leaving without buying something because I'd be really broke if I felt I had to buy 4 times a month at the shops.

I always buy something - even just a fat quarter, because I do feel guilty. And I feel even guiltier if the shop is going out of business and I buy a ton of stuff at rock-bottom prices. My favorite quilt shop in Wisconsin went out of business last week, and my local here in Minneapolis is going out of business currently.
