Talking with friend in Traverse City, Mi. and he said 2 stores there.

Ours closed 20 years ago.

Good to know. Thanks

Ours closed years ago too. I used to buy fabric there.

there's 1 20miles from here in Oberlin(college town) still going strong, still has fabric!

Ah, the memories of shopping at Ben Franklin as a child when a nickel bought a lot of candy. I loved going there when I went to visit my American family. I'd forgotten, and now will spend some more nostalgic moments looking at old store pictures on the internet. Thanks.

The BF stores in Grass Valley CA and Reno NV are still open and thriving....great fabric selections too.

There is still a Ben Franklin store in Ojai, CA, and they have a GREAT fabric selection.

Cincinnati, Ohio lost theirs over 30 years ago. I hadn't seen one since until I went to Bethel, Ohio about 10 miles from where I live now. It's a small Ben Franklin but...better small than none.

Can't remember when our BF closed it has been so long. Fond memories of that store.
