Our WM says they are not closing our Fabric Dept. That there would really be some mad people if they did. Maybe it has to do with where you live. We are in South Dakota, I noticed Montana is keeping theirs, wonder about Nebraska, ND, WY, Idaho, maybe Iowa of course Nebraska has Omaha, and Iowa has a couple of really large cities. Would be interesting to know if that has anything to do with it. Since we are kind of out in the boonies sometimes.
