I agree! Last yr. I went to Handcocks and bought a whole roll of batting at 52% of. I will be using it for a looong time. Only thing is I have it stored in my garden bath tub with a sheet over it.[Don't use that tub anyways]
On black Friday (the day after Thanksgiving) JoAnns has all their batting on sale for 50% and then they have a 10% coupon on everything. That is when I buy my warm and Natural.
Last year I bought a full bolt. It usually takes me about 2 years to use. But I am not retired and quilting a lot more so it won't take that long to use up.
