I was in my local Walmart yesterday. The prices seem to be about $4.95-5.95 range. I talked to the lady working in the dept. and she said her manager wanted the fabric dept. back and is doing everything possible to keep it. She also said that they are very busy in the dept. Of course, they leave a sign on the cutting table to tell you where you can find someone to cut the fabric. They had some really nice new spring fabrics, good quality. I guess it depends on what you are making that might determine what fabric you choose.
