My only store available is Joanns. It is 15 minutes away. I might go 2 times a month. I prefer to buy online because the quality I get online is much better and at a much better price than Joanns. I have been watching the sales and getting nice name brand fabric at fabric.com for less than $4.00 a yard. A lot of times I have coupons off the total price. I also buy a lot from connecting threads. I love their fabric and their clearance sections. I don't like to waste the time to run to Joanns. It is time I could be sewing. I will be going on Wed. because I have a luncheon with my homemakers club and it is just a few doors down from Joanns. I know exactly what I will buy, have the coupn and have the cash in my pocket. Our budget is tight as DH retired last month so I love the coupons.
