Prices going up. Ouch!
#106
as the prices in the netherlands are as high as those in australia
($22-$24 or even more for specials), I'm always looking at the online shops in america to buy fabrics.
I too have a low income and couldn't even afford to quilt if I had to buy the fabrics here.
But still people here say I shouldn't buy in america but support our own quiltstores.....yes sure....they don't help me either by giving discounts, and if I couldn't buy in america I couldn't buy with them either....so it stays all the same...
except now I'm supporting some american stores, so I also do a good job here ;)

I just survived a Moonlight Madness (emphasis on the madness part) sale at JoAnne's. Some terrific prices--some even as low as 60% off. But the thing that always ticks me off is you get some great coupons (50-40%) off on REGULAR priced items and at these sales NOTHING is regularly priced except for some weird formalwear fabrics. So what the heck is the idea with the coupons!? I did score a buy one/get one free batting--king size 80-20 for $39 total. So I guess the $39 savings was worth the 20minute wait for my number to be called--just can't handle JoAnne's more than about once every 3-4 months--prefer the LQS.

I like Fabric.com $35 is no shipping charge.
They also carry Civil War reproductions, 108"-110" for backing with more than fair prices. I have had the best of luck with them and also excellent products.
