It's been a couple of years now since we had fabric in the Wal-Marts near me. Their "regular" fabrics - the ones they always stocked, by Springs or Fabri-Quilt or VIP - had been $3.96 and then they jumped to $4.40.
I was just wondering, with the latest round of price increases by all the manufacturers, what Wal-Mart is charging for these fabrics now.
Maybe someone out there knows?

$4.44 yd still here, has been that price for a while. There have been a few bolts I have come across that were $5 something a yard over the last year.
Our Walmarts seem to be a bit more than in other areas of the USA :( I am wondering how much they will go up after the 1st...

I was wondering... because Cranston/VIP has raised our wholesale price 35 cents per yard this past month. I would assume that they'll be raising their prices to Wal-Mart, too.

I wonder if Walmart gets a better deal than regular shops because of the volume they purchase? I have been told by a small local grocery owner that on some items Walmart is selling it more cheaply than he can buy it because of volume discounts.
