I was in WalMart today just browsing. I don't think they are closing their fabric dept. They seem to be getting in new items almost every week. I came across a couple of the Fiskars rotary strip cutters marked down to $25 & just had to have one. Tried it out on some scraps when I got home - I like it! This is switching subjects, but I also noticed they had gotten in some Fiskars 14" rotating cutting mats $24.95. I have been wanting a rotating mat but have been too stingy to pay for one! Should I splurge for this one or save up for an Olfa 17"??? Comments anyone?
