We shop Hobby Lobby every month sometimes several times a month. There are 3 stores within 15 miles of each other in Louisville Ky...one is close in Clarksville Indiana. We shopped at two of them yesterday my wife and I both have the app on our iPhones so we both got 40% off on individual purposes. Today we are taking 4 grandsons to a pumpkin patch and have To pass another HL, so we will be stopping in. BTW, you can use you iPhone coupon once a day at EACH store.
Not all of their fabrics are always 30% off. Usually seasonal is not but you can use a coupon on it. Also all 3 stores here let us use 40% off coupons on fabric at full price. Have a great day. I'm only way to Hobby Lobby to get a few more great deals. |
I got two of the cutest dress forms from HL one has a hot pink dress, and the other has black and white zebra print,they are about 24" high and have them on top of my cubbies, makes my studio a fun place.

I love, love Hobby Lobby. Don't have one here in town; have to drive 45 min. away.

I bought a lot of sewing notions at Hobby Lobby in Stillwater, OK. I was amazed at the price differences from there to here in Ca. I found the Morgan Hoop for less than $20.00.

I miss Hobby Lobby a whole bunch since I left CO. No HL's here in WV, at least, not that I have heard of. I had to drive 80 miles to get to the one in Grand Jct., but it was worth it and my son and DIL lived there, so it was a great trip. I would spend hours at Hobby Lobby.

I would so love it if we could have a Hobby Lobby shop here. The biggest show in town is the Super-Wal-Mart, and the nearest craft store is Joanne's in one direction (100 miles plus away) and an unknown fabric shop 90 miles in another direction. I got to go to one when I visited some family in Texas, and I just loved everything about it. I hope they never Ever go out of business. I'm rooting for Hobby Lobby all the way.

Be aware that HL now carries 2 different quality flannels. After reading the recommendation for A.E.Nathan flannel I went to HL to purchase some for backings. There were some nice quality prints that clearly had their label on the fabric bolts and the country Pakistan listed. The solid color bolts had another no name sticker on the bolt with China on it at the same price with the A.E.Nathan label clearly visible under it. After the HL clerks could not explain this I called A.E.Nathan's customer service and spoke to a man who clearly didn't know what he was talking about. He said that the No name bolts were from Pakistan even though it said China on the label. The solid colors were definitely poorer quality but the same price as the flannel labeled A.E.Nathan.

Hobby Lobby
I also like to shop there - especially for white muslin.

SewExtreme, you're right on all counts! And Hobby Lobby isn't just for women, as my DH has found out in the last yr or so and now he wants to go as often as I do. He has his list and I have mine; his is arcylic paints and artist brushes, and mine's everything else in the store !!!

I love Hobby Lobby. Just remember that they are closed on Sundays. A lot of their fabric is good quality. Another thing to remember is that they put everything on sale really often so never pay full price. Sometimes they will let me pay full price and use a coupon and sometimes they won't. I just come back the next week when it isn't on sale and use my coupons. You can print them online too.
|
I don't have an iPhone but on my android phone I can pull up their website and show the cashier the coupon code number and she enters that into the register and I get the 40% off! How terrific is that......and it's for 40% off not just on fabric.

For those who don't know, there is a Hobby Lobby app for iPhone. You just show them the coupon and they take the 40% off the highest priced non-sale item. And you can use it every day. It automatically updates each Monday and is good through Saturday.

Love Hobby Lobby. Not the biggest fabric department, but since I'm not a Joann's fan, I shop mainly at quilt stores, online, or HB. The people at my HL are so nice and knowledgeable.
|
I love Hob Lob! If you don't want to/can't use your phone for the coupon - the flier located near the registers has the coupon also. I can grab one on my way to the fabric department. The ladies in the fabric department at my preferred Hobby Lobby are also sewers. They almost always ask me what I plan to do with the fabrics I buy and generally may have a tip or suggestion to offer.
My DD just joined the 4H sewing club and needed a yard of duck fabric for her project. We ran there this morning and the worker cutting her fabric was asking her what she was going to do with it. My DD thought it was really cool that the worker wanted to chat about her backpack project. :) |

Don't forget the quilting magazines can be purchased with those 40% off coupons too!!

The Hobby Lobby near me does not carry much fabric at all. What they do have is nice, just not much of it. Wish the department was bigger. Seems to me the whole layout of the store leaves a lot of wasted space. Maybe all the stores aren't the same.
|
I ordered the Easy Circle Cut Ruler from HL online today. Cost was $14.00 less than Jo Ann's.
I'm thrilled I'll be able to do the Drunkard's Path for Christmas gifts much easier now. HL is 50+ miles away but after reading prev. posts, I'll have to check out their fabric much closer than I have. Thanks! Vickie |
The HL near me takes competitors coupons....
|

They used to let you ask for regular price and then you could use the coupon but last winter that went by the wayside and you cannot do that anymore. This is the rule in the 2 stores in McAllen TX and in Harlingen so it sounds like it might be a rule from head office. But then their fabric is already always discounted and it really is great value.

Thank you, Neesie!

Thank you Neesie!!!! Big applause here! :thumbup:

I would love to be able to shop at Hobby Lobby more often, but I work during the week, which leaves only weekends for shopping. Since they are closed on Sundays, I'm limited to shopping at stores that are open on Saturdays and Sundays.

Oh, how I yearn for the Hobby Lobby of 8-10 years ago. Now, there was a fabric department and sales that beat all. I used to take an extra suitcase whenever I vacationed in a location that had HL to take my fabric and yarn treasures home. They even had a huge selection of battings including wool and silk. Some of those items are still in my stash and far superior to what they have available today. Today's fabric section is about 1/4 of what it used to be.
