It's going to have to be really something special for me to spend 6.00 for a yard of material.
I used to work at a store selling material. They had little machine where you slid the material in,( you always got an extra inch) and pulled it to the amount of material the customer wanted, 2 yd, 3 yd. Then pushed a button and it would clip it, take it out and rip it. It cost anywhere from 10 to 29 cents a yard.lol I guess that dates me.

I loved those machines! I thought they were so neat! To bad when the whole double knits era began they were taken out, since often the fabric got stretched.
I own one...and know of stores that brought them back....
