Try a 175 mile +/- round trip to the closest JoAnns. Not fun when you are out and need it like NOW - I need to invest in a van to buy up in lots of it - it is sad how our local shops have gone under once Walmart drove them out of business... they will not return; yes, we paid more, but when you figure $3.50 a gallon for the gas to save with a 50% coupon at JoAnn's you are still in the hole after all is said and done - almost are forced to buy in huge quantities to make the trip count.
