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.

Just last week I asked for a fabric to be charged at regular price so I could use the coupon. The sales lady did so but asked that I let the person cutting the fabric know at the cut out counter next time. It speeds up the process at the counter.

Are they open evenings? it is nice they close Sundays for people with families.

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.
