Went to new JoAnn's in Rockwall Friday with a quilting buddy. I bought FQ's @ 99 cents each for a " purple" quilt I 'm making for Christmas present. Also got some 50% off notions. This with my extra 20% off made it a pretty good deal. I had to limit myself!

Hi, everyone,
I was at the Joann's Store in El Cajon, near San Diego, Ca. and I caught one of the employees taking stuff off the shelf's before the sale started, in particular the more expensive quilting books.
I watched her go to the quilting supplies area, and she did the same thing in that department, I confronted her, a person I know at that store, and she came right and said, well Nancy some things joann's cannot afford to put on sale. !
So the sale is only a sale on things that they want to get out of the store.... ? I think so.

I went yesterday, the store was just about empty of customers. Everything that I bought was 30% off already.
I bought 10 yards of felt(for the Marine Corp stockings) for 40% off. So I could not use the coupon. But I did use the 20% off total coupon, so I did save.

That store is beginning to get me down - but it's the only game in town.

Me, too. I get discouraged at the "look" of a store and do not go back until it's back in order; hate to see lots of bare shelving; just a quirk of mine, I guess. Also don't like the "going out of business" sales.

Here's a tip for the Red Tag/clearance shoppers...if you go late in the day, check the restock bins at the cutting counter. That's where all the good stuff can be found. It appears that the ladies are so busy, they don't have time to put it back on the clearance racks. :thumbup:

Wow, that's good hint! I've seen bolts of fabric near the cutting counter, but have been too shy to ask to look through them.
