About 1/2 & 1/2, due to the 3 gift cards I got for Christmas.Still, my "On Line Shops' notebook is a good thing. I'm keeping a lot of info for the ones I like dealing with ,along with their shipping policy.Then I have a "NEVER" list.

I considered myself commited to support local businesses , expecially my LQS, but have found myself faced with prices over $12.50 per yard ... with a shrinking wallet ... I admit in the last year.. even more in the last 6 months more of my purchases have been on-line than all of the previous years combined. It is a fact I am almost embarrased to have to admit , since I feel a sense of betrayal , in not supporting my local.
My question is ....
In the last year ... or maybe even 6 months have you spent more of your fabric $$ on- line than in the past? and if it has what has caused the increase of on-line? Price , convieniece , selection?
