Wow! I must be crazy because..............I already have 12 large size plastic bins of fabric (inheriated mother/MIL) and I'm still drooling. What a bargain, so happy for you.

Once I even got a CHEAP , OLD , SMELLY "Pleather" pants and coat. I mean REALLY??!! I explained, I was wanting it fabric to make quilts with...... anyone ever made a "pleather " quilt????? I haven't...... those bags never made it into the house!... Lucky for me, her fellow employees got greedy and swiped a few bags out of the back of her truck and went thru it!! ( this was her explaination of why there was not more than one bag-- all I can say is...... thank you "fellow employees!!!!!!")
I still scan the craigslist/freecycle/free ads for those deals..... some day MY deal with come!!!!!

Sorry Bluteddi, I'm still laughing over your post.......pleather! Have to believe some good karma is coming your way with your next adventure. Certainly it is a tale you can tell for years.

Lucky you! I never come across great deals for fabric.
