I HATE black Friday sales and usually avoid them - I am not a shopper at all... BUT a few years ago I 'discovered' JoAnn's sales - that first year it was WONDERFUL - the second year it was great - but the last couple of years - not so much - they have only a few of the SPECIALS in stock and unless you are the first one in the door and know exactly where to go - forget it - no rainchecks (here anyways!) then so many of the sales are on different days of the weekend - which does not make sense to me - I am less likely to go back to get something else - - -sell it all on one day for heaven's sake!!
