In my area, fat quarters are $3-4 each the last I noticed.I buy fabric on sale at 50% off.So that's way cheaper for me.I also like a skinny because I can get 3 jelly roll cuts from it.

How is buying one's fabric in quarter yard increments more expensive? I pay the same for 4 fat quarters as I do for a yard cut. Is that not your experience?
