I used to work in the fabric department at the local Walmart and got in on all the good deals. Got to see the new 'stuff' before it was put out on the floor. When the department got closed I thougt that was a good time to retire. Now with all the prices going up so much I really can't afford to get to much fabric any more. Even the local fabric store here in town closed, so have to go to a little place in OKC, but haven't been able to get there for a while. I think when Walmart closed most of their fabric departments its caused the prices to jump, because of their bulk buying and keeping most of the prices down. That's my thoughts, anyone else have an idea?
