The one here sells Fons and Porter's, Clover, Fiskars and other notions at lower then lower clearance prices. The selection changes often. For example I bought the big tin of F&P assorted glass head pins for $1.99, regular $19.99 and F&P machine topstitch needles for .59 a package. I find all sorts of new sewing gadgets there from time to time. I bought all the different size Clover yo yo makers in one package for $9.99 before I saw them advertised in the quilt magazines. My guild members think I spend a fortune on good quality quilting notions. I don't say where I buy them because they know the store is here and choose not to shop there. I don't have any sympathy when they go to Hobby Lobby or JoAnn's and pay four times what I do for the same things.
Also the store's shopping totes are the best. Big roomy rectangle shape with a removable firm bottom for .99. I washed one in the washing machine and it looks like brand new. Before I buy anywhere I look at Tuesday Morning first.

We used to have one but it closed. I had never shopped in there before, but wish I had!

I know there was one by my mom's a few hours from here. I can go when I visit her. I am definitely going to check it out. Thanks for the info. Love Fons and Porter. I did catch a few things at Joann's on clearance for a song...

Give the store a call and ask what notions they have in stock.

We have two nearby. I'll check them out this week, but they usually look like a hurricane blew through them. :)
