IMHO....
Not sticking up for Joanne's or any other store. Blame it on mother nature, if you will. Our crops dictate prices.
I have read for 3 or 4 months now that the price of cotton was going up.
Have you noticed the price of frozen veggies has remained the same, but, the size of the packaging has gone from 32oz. to 28 oz.
Corn, grain, coffee, sugar, dairy, dr. appointments.
Check it out ladies. It isn't to late to stock pile the products you use.
