Personally I am not financially fortunate enough to be able to afford to throw anything away. I save everything as long as I can cut a 4" square out of it for scrappy quilts and shop at thrift stores to find garments that I can cut down and use the fabric for my quilts.
That being said, if I purchase fabric for a quilt I want the estimated yardage to be accurate for the project and if I wish to buy extra for later will add that if I have the funds to do so. I do not want to be manipulated into purchasing something that isn't required in order to pad their bottom line.
