Has your LQS stopped cutting fat quarters?

My LQS has FQ Friday once a month and all FQs are $1.50. And, they will cut any you want. Even better, 9/2 was my birthday and their policy is that for one week before and one week after, you get % equal to half of your age. They even allow it on FQs. So, since I am 61 (only time it pays to be older), I get 30.5% off the FQs so yesterday they only cost me about $1.05 each. It was a fun day.

We have one in the area (haven't visited ALL the shop int he StL metro area) that precuts only 1/2yds (didn't ask if she'd cut a FQ). While on vacation a week ago I visited 4 shops in northern WI (Green Bay region) and 1 of them did not have FQs, only 1/2 yds, and 2 of the other 3 only had small selection of FQs.
I like doing the FQ patterns like Yellow Brick Road, wickedly easy, etc.. If I like a fabric I often buy a 1/2 yd for about $4.50 rather than a FQ for $2.75 or $3.

I don't like buying them there though because they are 3.00 a fat quarter and that comes to 12.00 a yard when most of the fabric in that shop is 9.99-10.99 a yard.
But if I need something and only a little I have picked up maybe 2 fat quarters from them.
I love connecting threads because they cut in fat quarters that way I don't have to order a quarter yard
