Glad you mentioned that! I had forgotten about how much that irritates me. On rare occasion they DO have a Fons & Porter sale, but it doesn't include everything, just rulers for instance or pins. It's as though they are keeping themselves separate from the rest of the store. Probably this has nothing to do with F&P themselves, just the way Joann's does it. But it always makes me irritated with F&P. I think someone had better tell them to read this thread. It would be smart of them.
