Do you like the fabric pricing trend?

This is terrible. These companies only care about their bottom line. Well, if they keep pricing themselves out of the market with deception, they will end up with nothing and in the same budget boat we are!

This has been going on for awhile. Everything has gotten smaller but prices have gone up. Bags of chips are smaller. I saw some bottled sodas the other day that weren't 16 oz....I think they were 12. My shavings guy kept his prices the same but the loads are way smaller. Heck our newspaper is narrower and smaller....

There is a way to beat this trend. Go to Thrift stores and buy sheets (white, colored or printed), little girl dresses (some never worn), Men's shirts (white like new percale, etc.) Women's dresses, skirts, etc. Sometimes bundles ofbrand new fabric. I once bought a tiny little bag, about the size of a gallon freezer bag of fabric, and got over 25 yards for $2.50. What a buy. This is a way to Boycott the fabric stores. Good luck to all!
