One of my LQS has a scrap bin where you can get a scrap for 25 cents or they give you a plastic zip top bag you can fill for $5. The stipulation is that bag must zip closed.
So yesterday I proceed to put 56 scraps in an UNpleated 9 X 6 bag
That is $14 at the per scrap price. Quite a haul I thought but cashier didn't bat an eyelash. And none of the other employees said a bad word to me about pulling every scrap in the bin out to look at each one, creating a leave pile on the floor and a take pile in my lap until I got to the bottom of the bin and stuffed the leave pile back in the bin.
I guess they keep a chipper attitude because they get to touch fabric all day ;-) and maybe quilters are easier to deal with than the general public?
