The Joann Fabrics in my area is moving to a larger location across the street and is having a liquidation sale at the old location.
I went last week and many things were 33% off and the rest were 50% off. I went back today because it was so crazy there last week, and many things were 75% off. I was able to stock up on basics, like needles, pins, purse hardware, marking pens, batting, etc., and scored big when I bought most of a bolt of Pellon fusible fleece. It was half off, but when you bought the bolt they upped it to 75% off. I paid less than $20 for what was $90 full price. I have enough to last me quite a while! All thread was also 75% off, so I purchased some Mettler silk that I have always wanted to try. On top of that some items were eligible for my 20% off everything coupon, although not too many. I ended up spending $90 for $240 worth of stuff. Yee ha! For those in northwest Ohio/northeast Indiana/southeast Michigan, it's the Defiance OH Joann. There's still some quilting fabric, regular fabric, batting, notions, ribbon and a fair number of quilting books. They are also selling some of the fixtures and shelving, although most of that didn't look like it would work too well in a home studio. The new store opens October 7, and the old store will stay open until October 6 unless they have sold everything before that. |
How wonderful to get some super buys for it really makes quilting more affordable and also brings smiles to our day. Sure a good time to stock up!

WOW. There is a Joann store moving to a new location in Cincinnati also. I wonder if they have such good deals. I may need to do some shopping tomorrow.

You hit a good sale. Lucky you. Are you going back again? I would have a hard time staying away. $90 for $240 worth of merchandise is wonderful. I wonder why they don't just move things. Probably want everything shiny and new.

I might have to go back again! Defiance is one town over from where I live and I have appointments there Wednesday and Friday. It would be a shame not to go, don't you think? What if I missed something? What if they found something hiding in their back room that they have to sell. What if they go from 75% off to 90% off? If they did that I might have to buy all the Gutterman thread. I'll have thread for life!
