Default For those who are mathematically challenged

Mo Star quilting offers a daily special, frequently it is a layer cake or charm pack. I was wondering what price is a good deal for a layer cake or a charm pack, so I did some calculations.

1 yard of 44" fabric = 1584 sq inches
1 charm pack = 1050 sq inches
1 layer cake = 4200 sq inches.

A layer cake @ $20.00 would be ~ .005 cents per sq inch or = $7.92 a yard
A charm pack @ $1.95 would be ~ .002 cents per sq inch or = $3.13 a yard

A yard of fabric @ $6.33 per yard would be ~ .004 per sq inch (that is pretty average @ Hancock or Joann when they have 40% off.)

It doesn't look like Mo Star charges shipping on their daily deal. Does anyone know if this is true?
