I just went to one yesterday in Parrish, FL that is closing the end of this month. Her rent has apparently been increased to 78k a year !!!! Hate to see it close, even though I spent $199 and walked out with 17.5 yards of mostly batik fabric, a great monogramming software program (had been looking at one for over $400 - got this one for less than $60), 2 patterns and 2 books . Sadly, we can often get great bargains as a result of others misfortunes.
