    Just got the news this morning that Timeless Treasures is increasing their prices 35 cents / yard effective April 1.

    And then later today I got the news that Maywood is raising theirs 25 cents / yard effective next week.

    Just another FYI...

    I am sick and tired of hearing about price increases. Can we talk about something less depressing? Please and thank you.

    Can't be any worse than the gas price increase.

    Our Kroger grocery stores increased zillions of prices almost 2 dollars! What got me the most mad (I know that's not proper english but that is how much this flew all over me) is I went in to get a case of diet coke. I love diet coke. How many cans are in a case? Anyone? 24. 24. 24. Wrong. The cases of diet coke went up a dollar and now a case appears to be 20. That flew all over me!

    I the cotton crop was as bad as reported, then those two companies have a done a good job of keeping the raises mimimal. The biggest concern is where will it stop?

    Really? Why not just skip this thread? Seriously, I'm confused.
