This has been my experience at the Joann's in my town, too. So guess what. I simply don't step foot in the place. I agree with an earlier poster - seems like a bait-n-switch tactic.
I only wish we had a Hobby Lobby here. We have Craft Warehouse, which is actually a pretty decent hobby store. They carry good quality, name-brand quilting fabrics, and occasionally issue coupons that are a generous 40% off anything in the store, no restrictions. If what you want is on sale, they will gladly give you 40% off the regular price.
With a good quality, customer-service oriented store like this in town, who needs Joann's?
