Update on Fabric Depot experience... first of all - the place is HUGE!!! 2nd-if you can't find it there-you are not finding it!
3rd-the employees are super! 4th-the YARD SALE room was for me lol !!! HOWEVER - I thot their prices were a little higher than my prices in Bellingham but that could be because of no sales tax in OR or whatever- One example- an ITEM (shall remain nameless but it is liquid *wink*) was priced @ $19.99 for the quart bottle. Hancock Fabric in ID reg price is $11.99 for same size. I used a JoAnn 50% off coupon (@ Hancock) and ended up paying abt $8.00. That is quite a big difference. I guess you should know your prices before going. My overall experience was GREAT....... Will go again when traveling thru in April 2012 ... Hope to meet some of you there.......... Thanks again for every-bodies input ! Helped a lot!!!
