I REALLY don't like shopping at J's (or any other large chain store) for fabric. Partcularly at J's, they usualy hire people who don't sew. They are not aware that if the fabric fold is not on a straight line, they will be cutting crooked, even in the scissor groove. When I nicely ask them to be sure that the fold is on the straight line, they get an attitude. I also don't like the quality of most of their fabrics anymore. I know that the LQS is pricier, but I get better fabric, I KNOW that they know how to cut, I can actually ask quesions and get them answered and I'm suporting local business. Most employees at the big chains act like they are serving a prison sentence and you are only there to make sure that they suffer. Bad service and bad fabric = no patronage from me. I don't need to pay for the privilege of being treated badly, shorted on bad quality fabric and being scammed on their so-called "coupon deals".
