Those of you that buy the whole bolt/roll of batting like this....how do you store it and then cut from the roll for a finished quilt ????

"...how do you store it and then cut from the roll for a finished quilt ????"

I just got some batting that comes on a 64" bolt. It's folded in half, so it's not so tall. I make mostly lap quilts and baby blankets for charity, so that works perfectly for me.

They are out already and won't have any more for the sale. :( I talked to a customer rep, who was very nice, but she said they didn't expect such a big response to the ad. Really? I have trouble believing that.

Can anyone say "bait and switch"? These days it's known as luring people to a web site when you know you don't have nearly enough product to satisfy the demand. Not a happy camper here. Since W&N is a mainstay on that web site, I would expect them to take orders against their next shipment. I know the ad says "while quantities last", but really, they were out early this morning, how many could there have been for sale? And I had a 20% off coupon I was going to use, which makes it doubly painful. Sorry... just had to vent.

I must have missed something. Where does it say "Today only"? A lot of batting is on sale.

I received an email from JoAnns that was titled "One Day Only". I opened the link and copied the URL to make it easier for you to see. You're right though, the link doesn't say anything about it being one day.

The email was for Warm and Natural 40 yards x 90" (queen size) only, $209.99, and it clearly says one day only, valid only through August 2, and quantities limited.

I was going to go to JoAnns today and use a 40% or 50% off coupon. Plus an additional 25% off your entire order coupon I have. I was hoping to get a whole bolt of warn and natural. If you get the right cashier I can use my teacher discount too sometimes. I always try sometimes it works sometimes it doesnt.

I have trouble believing anything about JoAnn's. I recently did a special order of upholstery fabric & had to pay $19 shpg. to the store. I would think if I had to pay shpg. for something it would come to my house so I had to drive the 35 miles back to the store to pick it up. I had to pay it since I had already spent so much time waiting for appropriate coupons for the foam cushions & then again for the right batting. Took wks. to put all the parts together.
Then I emailed the company to question why they'd chg. for shpg. to the store but they ignored me & never responded. So I have a poor attitude about JoAnn's

On top of that, I hate doing the "coupon dance".
