I am ALWAYS looking for a bargain-and hardly EVER buy when not on sale or without a coupon (and I shop at Joann's, mostly). I just joined Fons & Porter's Quilter's Club of America (a great deal!) and got (amoung many other benefits) a card for Joann's for and additional 10% off TOTAL BILL, SALES ITEMS INCLUDED. It means when I buy something with a 40% coupon, I get it for 50% off. Also, any regular sale items (where you CAN'T use a coupon) like fabric, usually 30% off makes it 40% off. The great thing is it gives you an additional 10% off your total bill. It was only about $24.95 for the year, so I have already recovered that in additional discounts! Worth checking into!
