Who's surprised that the sticker is just added on top of the old one? Not me, certainly. First of all, it was done that way many, many years ago when all stores priced their items individually. Secondly, imagine having to remove all those stickers! Finally, I'm only amazed that any store even prices their bolts. Really, most bolts have prices on them already (MSRP price) and, well, there's the old barcode sitting there waiting for a price gun to do the work. But, I'm afraid that the cost of fabrics is going up, but we've been expecting it. We've had a few comments already about it coming. I was just praying that it would hold off a little while longer.
