I very seldom pay full price for fabric. There are 4 LQS that I frequent and always go directly to their discount corner. One of them starts out with 25%, then 30, 40, 50 & 60%. I usually buy when it is 60% off. The other 3 usually have 50% off or sometimes $5.00 yard. They all have cards that anything you buy at in the shop at regular price you get it stamped for every $10. 3 of them 20 stamps you get $20 merchandise purchase. The other one you buy $460 and get $40 merchandise. You can even buy sales items with the money from you completed card. Vendors come to our quilt guild monthly and I always check on their sales fabric. I have bought some at $4 a yard. I enjoy going to quilt shows and always find fabric on sale. My stash is big enough now that I am going to try to use it and only buy fabric I need to complete a project. I went to 2 estate sales in the last year and bought fabric at $1.00 yard. I purchased about $400 between the 2 sales.
