I feel that I am helping someone in the community when I shop at yard sales and such. they are trying to make $$ as well. My mother bought a pellon printed pattern (enough for a queen size quilt) they charged her $50. There were no instructions. Mom called LQS The lady at the LQS told my mother that the pattern was in a book and it would cost her $20. I think they took total advantage of my mother. I will NEVER shop there again. TG we have a small but nice LQS in another town.
