I`ve been told, and I believe that Joann`s had a big change in product, pricing & coupons. I also find it hard to use the coupons, the material seems cheaper and I don`t have as much fun there. Was tickled pink when I found my Wal-Mart was getting material in. Saw 10 or 12 bolts there, but was told they still had to get a cutting table. Yesterday I ask where the material was, as the cutting table was there, and was told they decided not to carry it after all. What a bummer.

Joann coupons anymore are a joke. they have them but than put 99% of everything already on sale. even its a 10% discount. Fo the coupons are unless since they can't be used on anything on sale or big priced items

I just used three coupons after work. Didn't buy really expensive items but bought items I needed and it helped. I love to use Sugar and Cream cotton yarn for washcloths and the price has gone up again. Nice to use a coupon to get it. (That's my latest addiction or therapy, depending on how you look at it, knitting washcloths).

If you are on their mailing list you can get 20-40% off total purchase. I use this to get large amounts of fusible interfacing and fusible web. I also usually check their "bargain" area and was lucky enough to find an embroidered fabric that became my daughter's girlfriend's marriage quilt

Back to Joann's -- since they were bought by that investment company I have had a hard time finding any fabric I am willing to buy and the prices have gone way up. I still get my rotary blades there, and a few other supplies (batting and interfacing), but I have been steering clear of the rest. I don't mind the bad fabric since it helps me stick to my fabric diet, but it is really sad.
Thanks for the heads up about the MM jet black -- I will get it when I get low on what I have.
