I used to buy fabric in WalMart - until they closed down the sewing departments in the 3 stores that were close enough for me to go there!!! And, I found some quality fabrics, and some of the same ones that were in JoAnn's(at a higher price than WM). I would go to the sewing section, get what I needed/wanted, then go through the grocery section for the rest of my shopping before going home. Now, I rarely go to WalMart for anything, due to the loss of the fabric departments. I grocery shop at a store closer to home now. And, the main fabric store is JoAnn's - 10 miles away. So, I now save money - because I don't buy fabric very often anymore.
