Unforetuneatly less then a mile!! Most trips are good but the bad ones just make me think it would be easier to drive 10 miles for service.

I was thrilled when one opened 90 miles from my home. Before that the closest fabric was Wal-Mart, 24 miles away. Jeff Foxworthy has said you might be a redneck if your nearest town is a Wal-Mart. I guess I qualify! :lol:

About 75 miles away, in Knoxville. I didn't know there was one being built in Sievirville, where will it be located. One more reason to go to Dollywood, we have season passes for there.

Yeah! We have two in town. You'll love having the opportunity to go shop there. Last week I was in the store and they were having a sale on all their rulers 50% off!!!! I was so excited I bought three new ones! The most expensive originally had been $24.95. I love their Legacy Studios fabric. Its a nice quality and feel to it.

We have a Joanne's about 10 min. from here. Brand new and about three times larger then the older one. It's grand opening is a week from now, I am so excited! Then there is a Hancocks across the street just a few blocks from there.
I love the coupons from both places.

I have one 20 minutes away; however I stay away on the weekends. They seem short of help. During the morning on weekdays I have found they are more than happy to help you with most anything.

The closest is 45 minutes without traffic. It's just off a highway that doesn't know what no traffic means. There's one about half an hour away but you have to pay a toll on the NY Turnpike and a very expensive bridge toll, I think it's $12. We used to have 3 Rag Shops (similar to Joann's, fabrics, crafts etc.) within 10 minutes of my home but they went out of business even tho they were always crowded. Each location would have been a perfect spot for a Joann's; writing to Joann's we all got the same reply, no plans for new stores just expansion in existing stores. If one opened in my area it would be filled with customers within the first few minutes.
