I will say that the Joann's I go to has really cleaned up their act. I am greeted by each employee as I pass them in the store. I am waited on MUCH quicker at the cutting table and when I check out. Its a pleasant experience to go to Joann's.

I'm wondering what would happen if you cut your own fabric then took it to the check-out counter? After looking for several minutes to find the price and amount of yardage, they'd have to call someone from the fabric area. Sort of a cool way to bring attention to the fabric department's lack of service. Might end up in a shop-lifting charge, tho. Thought is good for a giggle, tho!
