I buy my batting on the roll from Heartbeat Quilting, they have great prices and great service. Both times I've ordered late in the afternoon, on a Thursday and the batting was delivered on the following Monday.

I always get mine by the roll. I can't stand to run out and that's the best way for me to make sure that never happens!

By the roll online from Batt Mart.

I bought a roll of W&N at JoAnns store w/coupon what seems like forever ago. It seems to last forever. For storage, I stand it on end in the corner of my sewing room behind the door. And I have next to no room in there!

I buy Quilter's Dream from Hancocks of Paducah when they have free shipping. They keep the surcharge for oversized items, but it was only $15 for 8 queen batts, which was excellent. I would not buy a delicate batt like that off the roll in a store, though, because you never know how the people rolling out and cutting have handled it. A full roll would be completely different, of course.

hugs,
Charlotte

My sister and I go in together on a bull box of Warm and Natural. We split so that we get 20 yards each. Sue orders it online and it's delivered to her door.

I've been lucky at some estate sales. Batting still in package for $5 (qn sz). One estate sale the owner used it for Christmas display. It fit a king sz bed. Washed it to see how it would hold up. I paid a whole $1 for it. Not to say I don't buy it in the store (I do). I usually use a coupon and get the warm and natural.

Walmart has surprisingly good prices on batting by the bolt, and you can have it shipped to your door for a small cost or pick up at the store.

I buy by the bolt from JoAnn's too which I thought was free shipping but they charged me $19 shipping to the store. I would kick up a fuss if they did that to me again. That store sure rubs me wrong anymore. I hate the coupon games. I'm always getting caught with expired dates or something just a bit on sale so can't use coupon.

I do love having a bolt though. That way I always have it handy.

I buy my batting by the bolt thru my almost local fabric store. They have given me a discount in the past plus no shipping charges to me. Works for me.
