I really do not want to wait until I am checking out that the shipping is more than I care to pay. Not sure how that would apply to a full roll/bolt of batting. That is a large item. I have been thinking about ordering it since the last time I went in to buy it the sales person told me there wasn't any in the back - but it just so happened I had to go again the next day and there it was. Oh wow, it was a miracle because I was there on Saturday afternoon and no batting but it was there on Sunday morning. The same person was working as I walked up to the cutting table to get the slip on it, she had someone else wait on me. She should have just said it must not have been unpacked the day before because she couldn't find it. Any way, that made me think I should just buy it on-line, but now not sure.

Why are so many people bashing Joann's. There is always plenty of things NOT on sale such as rulers, thread, quilting notions, general notions, some yarn, many craft items etc! Joann's will OFTEN have % off your total purchase that includes sale items. I just bougfht fabric on sale a Joanns and used 20% off on senior day and saved an additional $10 for a total savings of $38 on a final bill of $44. I was HAPPY!!! Joanns will accept other stores coupons as long as that store carries the item coupon is being used for and they will accept as many coupons as you have aslong as the numbers are different. (if cashier does not accept the coupons then call the manager since this is their policy). Hobby lobby on the other hand only accepts THIER coupoons and the only ONE per day. Micheals will accept other stores coupons but usually give me a hassle and then has to ring them on seperate transactions.
If you have joann's coupons that you are not going to use then send them to me- I am sure I can find something to use them on!!!!!

joanns does not set the price on sewing patterns. The price is printed on the envelope. The prices have been very high for the past several years- $15+ for one pattern! However very often joanns and Hl will have a specific pattern manufacture on sale for $.99 or $1.99. That is the time to BUY!!!!!! We all must be "frugal" shoppers in this day and age!

Well, to each her own. 
I don't think it should be my responsibility to educate the employees of a store as to what that store's policy is, and I shouldn't have to argue with a manager to get the best deals I can. Since I have plenty of other options in my region, I simply choose to make my shopping experience a much more pleasant one and shop elsewhere.

I do not expect all employess of Joans to know about everything even the workers in the fabric dept. If I need help I will ask if anyone is a quilter even customers or of course I can always ask the great ladies on this board. I have had bad experience in many stores but that does not keep me from going back to get what I need at as reasonable price.
