I behaved myself. Got a package of 80/20 batting, queen sized using my 40% off coupon and a air fading purple marking pen. then DH went through the line and got me a quilt pattern for 40% off, plus another 10% off with my VIP card.

Made out like a bandit!!! spent $54; saved $58!Bought notions (rulers, thread, thimbles) at 50% off; backing for my quilt using the 40% off coupon; and a cute box to keep treasures in for 50% off; then 25% off my total.
How do you get a VIP card?

Debbie Mumms fabrics were 50% off without coupon, so if you have the 25% off coupon good on everything, you get 75% off. I did get a few nice items.



If you do the math, you'll find out you only got 62.5% off. Still good though.

You'd have to get 50% off the second time to get a total of 75% off.

Still a good deal any way you cut it.

You are right!!! How could I have missed that? :oops:

Gpt 6 yards of fabric, 1 yard of fusible interfacing, 2 yards of webbing for purse straps, magnetic catch, can of spray basting, 2 quilt marking pens, 2.5 yards of large blue rick rac, and embroidery scissors for $48 using a 40% off coupon, 50% off Michael's coupon, and 25% off the complete order. Feel like I did pretty good, saved over $20 with the coupons and most of the notions were already 50% off.

I love mine, you won't be sorry, always something on it to be cut or started.

Sorry, I was in Joann's earlier this week. I did not see one bolt of fabric that said quality to me. When I asked the clerk if they had a section on 1930's reproduction fabrics she looked at me as if, wondering what in the world I was referring to. I mentioned 2 or 3 fabric designers, the same look came on her face. Scissors, thread, notions, yes, there are some good buys. I want the quilt work that I do to last 100 years, thanks to quality fabrics.

I got my 25% coupon in my E-mail. Mine also came in the mail this afternoon. I went yesterday. Also had a 50% off coupon - used that on 2-1/2 yards of Batik that was not on sale. When all done, my bill was $52 + change - savings was $50 + change. Most of the material I bought was 40% off plus the 25%. This was for someone who was not going to buy any material until April!

I went yesterday with my three daughters...together we saved $210 on $168 of fabric, and $115 on $72 of notions...(we checked out separately so one daughter could use the "friend" 25% off coupon)...and even with stopping for dinner on the trip home (another $34) we saved a bunch....

Didn't get home until almost 11....man am I tired today...but it was well worth it!!!
