I noticed in JoAnn's the other day that they have brought back the bell on the cutting table...They may not have a lot of employee's in the store, but when I rang the bell just once...the employee called out from stocking shelves that she was on her way...much better than in the past.
I don't have a decent LQS within 30 minutes...so, when I go I tend to want to browse alot. I usually tell them when I walk in that I will be awhile, so that they aren't hanging around the cutting area waiting for me.
I shop on line lately, at a couple of favorite shops...but, I do support the local LQS.
