I stopped at the WalMart in Coldwater MI on the way home from Indiana today. They still have the bolts, so I asked if they were keeping their department. I was told that there isn't a JoAnns close by so they would be keeping their fabric department. Not long after they built that store they went from bolts to the hanging fabric. (2 yd cuts) I wanted 2 1/2 yds and wasn't going to buy the extra just to get the 1/2 yard so they lost that sale. I told them I wouldn't buy precuts. I was one of the people that complained and I'm sure many others did because they went back to the bolts. Maybe if enough people complain about the cuts they will go back to bolts in other stores. This was sometime between 2000-2004 because I would stop at that WalMart everytime I would go visit my son at college.
