Quilting supplies at Walmart info
 
Did you know Walmart has an extensive inventory of quilting items and books online? You can order and have it sent to your local Walmart store for pick up. No fee for shipping or in store pick up. And the shipping to your home is usually under $1! It cost more in gas to go pick it up at Walmart if I'm not going anyway. Look at the quilt books: http://www.walmart.com/search/search...g&_tt=quilting

All sewing machines: http://www.walmart.com/search/search...onstraint=2637


All sewing/quilting notions are listed in the Party & Occasions dept.

Walmart sells the Arrow and Kangaroo sewing furniture too.

Any item not stocked in the store can be ordered on line for in store pick up. Select your local Walmart and if the item is not stocked you can order it. I use the online ordering service a lot more then I thought I would. Now I don't have to hassle the fabric dept manager to why doesn't she stock this or that. :)

I was browsing and Walmart has Olfa, Fons and Porter, Fiskars, Omnigrid, Allary, products, Pounce, Magic Quilt, Sullivans Cutting Edge rulers, June Taylor, Olfa frosted, Quilt Sense, and the Reliable and Oliso irons! And the return policy is so easy, just take it back to the store.

What a great thing to know, thank you.

Thanks. I didn't know that. My sis points me to Walmart online more and more.

Great info! Our Walmart discontinued the Fabric Dept and only carry a few spools of thread, pins, needles, small notions. The books shown are really priced well.
Thank you for contributing to my habit, Bellaboo!

Tks, Bella. I can't get the notions to come up. Tried by typing sewing/quilting notions, sewing notions and quilting notions. Busted on every one of them. Can you help, pleeease?

I was in my WalMart yesterday and looked over the sad selection of notions they had to offer. It was pitiful, really.

Try sewing accessories. For reasons I can't fathom, they are under Party and Occaisions and then sewing accessories.

Who knew? Thanks.

one of our Walmart's has a big selection of fabrics and notions but the other 2 stores I go to don't have much if anything at all. Good to know we can get stuff online.

Thanks for the "heads up." I had no idea!

BellaBoo 01-24-2013 06:17 AM

If you follow the sewing machine link and go further in the pages, the notions and furniture will be shown.

If anyone belongs to Upromise, a college fund savings site, you also get 5% back on each purchase. You can access the funds anytime with no penalty. It's sort of like the rewards programs from some of the banks.

BellaBoo 01-24-2013 09:32 AM

I joined Upromise years ago. I forget about it and always surprised how much is in the account. It's like free money.

You can get an app for you computer and maybe smart phones too that lets you know when you're on a site that is affialited with Upromise and what the discount is. The app is Upromise Turbo Saver. Here's the link if anyone is interested. https://lty.s.upromise.com

Thank you for the info, Bellaboo. Good to know.

TexasGurl 01-25-2013 07:48 AM

Wow, had NO idea ... never tried to order online from WM ... given the very limited supplies in stores ...

So WHY in the world would they put it under PARTY accessories ??
Just shows you how their "marketing" people are really missing the boat ... you shouldn't have to be a Detective to find sewing & quilt supplies ... !!??

AUQuilter 01-25-2013 08:39 AM

Thanks for this. I get their emails but never thought to search for the quilting stuff.

Carol34446 01-25-2013 08:47 AM

I have bought stuff on line and had it deliverd to store not far from here and it is great and free shipping, and just a few days and it is in.

butterflies5518 01-25-2013 04:32 PM

Oh no! More shopping in my jammies.......yeah! Thanks for the info.

lwbuchholz 01-26-2013 04:07 AM
