Actually, at that price they aren't making a profit, they're losing money unless they're selling seconds or overstocks and manufacturers closeouts.
What they're trying to do is turn the inventory and recapture some of the investment in it to pay for new goods that they've previously ordered. Fabrics are typically ordered for a store up to 6 months or more in advance.
They're also probably trying to make room for more goods on their limited shelf space, unless they're going out of business like a lot of stores are. Then they're just trying to get some of their investment back.
