Will you be kicking yourself later for not getting it?

Shipping costs involve more than just the postage put on the envelope.

If it had been me, I probably would have gone ahead and gotten it and then found it for half the price a day or two later! Keep looking and maybe you'll find a sweet deal.

I was bad...Keepsakes sent me an email this morning. Melody matching 6 fat qtrs for 6.99 - I bought 4 - thankfully I do have free shipping since I joined their gold members club.

I agree, I was recently going to purchase a table runner pattern that I really want, but the shipping was over $10.00

Thanks everyone for your support! I am so good I decided to put the money I was going to spend towards a bill payment instead... it feels great but it's sure painful knowing that fabric is at my fingertips ;-)

i hate to say it...but, it's terrible to have to think about wether your going to ship something or buy something because of the added extra :shock: shipping charges.
