Did anyone else take advantage of the Connecting Threads 50% off Cyber Sale Today Only???

I sure did. Made a $100 order and only paid $50.... With free shipping too!

There is still time left.... If you hurry.

I couldn't get on their website-- too much traffic?

crazyforquilting 11-29-2010 05:17 PM

I did. I got free shipping also. Great sale.

morelcabin 11-29-2010 05:19 PM

I did and they sent me three emails to confirm 3 orders, but I only made one......I think I'm going to have to call them :>) Must have been an amazingly busy day for them!

Janet My 11-29-2010 05:21 PM

Yes, the site was very, very busy this morning when I placed my order. I had to click on something to look at and walk out of the room and wait for the page to load. It took me almost an hour to order 4 things but it was well worth it. They had a charm pack selection for $0.78!

donnajean 11-29-2010 05:30 PM

Does someone have the link as I can't find these items where I'm looking?

Now don't hold me accountable. I already got in enough trouble this morning! LOL! Have fun! And don't forget the thread. They have great cotton thread that is always cheap.

IrishNY 11-29-2010 05:46 PM

I got a book and some thread that I have been wanting and then added a couple of FQ selections. Got free shipping and some great bargains. Win-win!


The site was slow. I opened two browsers - one with CT and one with QB. I would click on the CT site and then switch over to read QB for a few minutes. Didn't matter to me that it was taking so long, but I was afraid that it might drop my order in the middle.

Candace 11-29-2010 05:48 PM

I placed an order this morning.

bjchad 11-29-2010 05:52 PM

I had the same thing. When I called the service rep said they had been having trouble all day with that. Apparently they were very slow due to the heavy traffic. No problem. They cancelled the unwanted orders.

King's Daughter 11-29-2010 05:55 PM

Yep, I placed an order, too. 6 FQ collections of solids.
Great prices! AND free shipping!

CarrieAnne 11-29-2010 05:56 PM

I tried, no way to get through on dial up, lol!

sewmuchmore 11-29-2010 06:09 PM

I could not take up on the deals :cry: My eye glass broke and have to purchase new ones. Bab time of the year for this to happen. :roll: Happy you guys are able to get the best deals!!! Enjoy :thumbup:

tinkerfeet 11-29-2010 06:09 PM

I was able to order and I can't wait to get my order. They had great prices.

SherriB 11-29-2010 06:18 PM

I did order some more charm packs. You can't beat a charm pack with 34 pieces for $1.47. It will be a quilt for DD's MIL.

LucyInTheSky 11-29-2010 06:21 PM

And $50 later, I'm all checked out :D

amma 11-29-2010 06:25 PM

can't beat the prices on those sampler sets :D:D:D

Candace 11-29-2010 06:26 PM

I'm glad I ordered in the morning. It looks like they're sold out of several of the items I bought;>

irishrose 11-29-2010 07:06 PM

They have plenty left. I don't know know that's good or bad. I need to go to my sewing rooms to find some fabric to sell to pay for my order. Trouble is, when you are addicted, it's hard to part with any.

Don't tell me about any more sales!!! No, seriously, these prices were great if the fabric is any good.

crochetetc 11-29-2010 07:12 PM

I bought 8 charm pack selections since I am playing with the english paper piecing and they are so easy to take along with me. I got out for less than $20 including shipping and it included a package of pieces.

sunflower126 11-29-2010 07:18 PM

I tried this morning and it was too slow. I did put 3 things in my basket to go back to later. Two of them were gone this evening. Disappointed in that but found 4 others that I bought and several spools of thread. Hope I like the thread, going on recommendations of this board.

Doughgirl 11-29-2010 07:22 PM

You were my downfall I looked, I bought and now I can hardly wait.

smtp5 11-29-2010 08:22 PM

Must have been the QuiltingBoard, giving them a great time with all the sales! lol

magnolia 11-29-2010 08:50 PM

I put in an order this morning.

IBQUILTIN 11-29-2010 09:06 PM

Placed my order, said my prayers, checked the bank account, and with the free shipping, I'm ok. Gonna quilt till I wilt.

cjomomma 11-29-2010 10:28 PM

I couldn't take it anymore and ordered 6 charm packs. Couldn't afford anymore than that. 6 charms plus the shipping and paid less then $10.00, what a deal or should I say what a steal!!! LOL!!

trif 11-29-2010 10:54 PM

I ordered this evening, great deals. I wish these were everyday prices!!! I ordered fat qt packs, jelly rolls, and more fat qts and more jelly rolls.....I just kept adding to my cart. I finally had to stop myself, what awesome deals. Im very happy I was able to shop tonight. Happy quilting

bucky383 11-29-2010 11:18 PM

Yes, I ordered several collections, couln't pass it up. Since site was so slow was worried I would not get order done in time to leave for work, but it went through just in time!

Janet My 11-30-2010 06:28 AM

So glad you were all able to satisfy your additions. LOL I wasn't going to say anything but... with those kind of deal I just could not keep it to myself if you don't get their emails. Happy quilting everyone!!!

GypsyRse1 11-30-2010 06:56 AM

I also got 3 emails with separate order numbers on all 3. Good thing I printed out my order before I went off the site. I called them and was told the computer was giving them fits. She canceled the extra orders, however, in the process, she accidentally cancelled all 3........YIKES ...and then she could not retrieve my original order. I had to verbally place my order with her for all 89 items and by the time we did it, they were out of several of the items I had ordered. I'm just hoping that the order gets completed because I have not received another confirmation email.

3699quilter 11-30-2010 11:48 AM

Ordered bright, solid fat quarters. Really wanted the purple/yellow fat quarters, but had to settle for the 10" x 10" squares. Had to think long & hard about buying more.

EasyPeezy 11-30-2010 04:07 PM

What a great deal. I ordered 5 sets of FQ's and shipping was only $7 for all that. Yahoo!!!

donnaree59 11-30-2010 04:48 PM

I have never seen a site so slow! But I persevered...! Can't wait to get it! Thanks, I think to whomever posted this.... (I know I really needed to find fabric 1/2 off when I should be saving for Christmas...).

Tink's Mom 11-30-2010 04:53 PM

I had a bit of fun ordering, too...lots of charm packs and some yardage to match. and of course, thread... :-D

Don't feel bad, had to do the same thing this month. With prescription and glasses, cost $422 at Sam's Club. I am very nearsighted and after becoming a diabetic I now need bifocals. Had to miss black friday sales too this year.
