In my opinion, though, I think Zinck's has really cut the amount of cottons that they used to have. They used to have tables and tables of flat folds that were seconds and really inexpensive. If you were careful and lucky...you could find lots of good pieces. I usually stop and look here, but haven't bought anything in a long time, well, mostly because of a personal experience. (I was in the store one time when the owner was interviewing a prospective employee loudly enough for the whole store to hear and was very condescending and rude to her. I can't get that out of my head and can't spend my money there.)
