Default JoAnn's was EMPTY this morning!

I have to wonder if it has to do with the economy.....I have NEVER been to JoAnn's on a day when they had an active 60% coupon and not had to stand in line for a ridiculous amount of time. Must admit, it was wonderful to go in and check out within 10 minutes!

I think they are saving their pennies for the black friday sale.

I didn't get a 60% off coupon wahhhh ... They just open a new super sized joanns and closed the smaller one by my house and it has been a mad house in there. I miss my small one. Would have preffered driving long distances to get to the big one so as to not deal with the crowds.

That's what I was thinking too. It's probably going to be super crowded on Friday.

I went into Joanns yesterday for the first time in a very long time.....and to my extreme surprise the whole store had been done over! Everything was in a different place, but I didn't care, I'd find it, and it would be easy, the aisles were wider and not cluttered with all kinds of stuff as it had always been before, the displays were very nice and easy to see what you wanted, and at the cutting table you pulled a number and when they came to your number, they announced it over an intercom and your number showed all lit up on a box hanging from the ceiling. NO more lines of women jockeying for a better place in line. No line at all!...when you hear your number you go to the cutting table with your fabric to be cut! WONDERFUL. All the salespersons had been replaced...hooray... and everyone was especially helpful and pleasant.....WOW. What a pleasant surprise. I just might start going back to Joanns for things!

If you check Joanns website you can print the coupons from there. That's how I got my 60% off and also the 20% off total purchase.

60% off reg priced items? I saw (online) the Christmas fabric was bumped from 50% to 60% off today. DH and I are going to stop in tonight and I sure hope the lines are not huge for me!
