I need to stay away from that store. They always get me with the bolt end. "Do you want the remainder for half off?" OF COURSE I DO. They know I can't resist!

There's a Joann's about 3 blocks from work, and another one about a mile from my house. I'm surrounded! I watch their sales and use their coupons carefully and often walk out of there feeling like I've robbed the place. It still adds up, though... and I've learned to check the fabric quality verrrry carefully!

They've always been great about returns & swatches, and always cut my fabric well - if it's not straight on the leading end they scootch it over and give a generous allowance for straightening.

I have always had good luck and service at my JoAnns. When they remodeled the store a while back, employees were very helpful finding what I was looking for. I haven't been buying except for a special project, been using all my stash (lots of it). I did get 3 sets of 12 FQ at Tuesday Morning yesterday, along with the other set I got last week, all good quality fabric too. Washed and pressed up very nice.

Glad it worked for you. I went in and of course they didn't have what I was looking for!

Yay for you! How often does that happen??? Not very in my experience!

Our Joanns is opening in a new huge location in 2 weeks. The present Joanns looks like a war zone while they are closing it down. The new one will be at least 4 times the size. Should be quite the place.

Good for you! I can't thinkof the last time I managed to even use a coupon. No matter what I want it's on sale for 20 to 30% off so I can never use that 50% coupon. I wonder how many of us are guilty of buying something we didn't even want just to use the coupon.

LOL.....the illusive non sale item at Joanns....kudo's to you for finding it!!!
I have stood outside the store handing out my just about ready to expire coupons...in the hopes that another gal will be able to seek out same!!....Hey Joanns....take a clue!! As I have to be beyond desperate to pay that extra 40% they tack on to EVERYTHING.

I've ordered online from them, and they do send very generous cuts. And I've been to the store in Lafayette, nice store, never had a problem.

I have a joanns 1.5 miles away and a credit card balance to show for it

What a great feeling huh? It seems that they put almost everything on "sale" and you can't use their coupons. I used to use them on buying magazines and now it seems they're always 10% off and you can't use the coupon!! Good Job!!
