LOL, I ended up using my 60% on a big spool of thread. I needed it and couldn't think of anything else I NEEDED!

I sent a message to one of the mods for the JOSewing, hopefully she'll hop over and be able to help you out!

Oldtiseme What do you mean by "paypals interest rates"? I use pay pal ALL the time and have never been charged a fee of any kind! I shop EBay and many other places and its so easy to use paypal right out of my checking account! What did we do before internet?? :)

I looked at prices not too long ago. YIKES!! I think if I should need one in the future, I will wait until I can get one of those 40% coupons at Hobby Lobby.

I don't know how to use Paypal right out of my checking account so I was talking about the interest to put the charge on my Paypal credit Card. I didn't even know you could pay for it through your checking account. Care to email me or message me with info? Thanks

Even if you're putting it on a credit card, if you pay off the balance by the due date there shouldn't be any finance charges. Unless they PayPal credit card is vastly different from a regular credit card, but I doubt it is.

I buy my rulers mostly at Joann's w/coupons, or off of Amazon.

I think it's strange that so many people seem to end up with rulers that don't line up...I mix and match rulers all the time and I've double-checked, they all line up perfectly. I have at least 4-5 different brands of rulers (Omni grid/grip, Creative Grids, Wrights/EZ, Olfa, Fons & Porter...) and they all agree on how big an inch is. It's easier to see on some than on others, but they all agree if you look straight down. Maybe I'm just lucky!?

I got my pack of 4 Saturday in the mail from Joanns. Got 60% off of them so only paid $17 plus shipping...I was in heaven!! :)

While these rulers don't slip as easily, I really find them hard to read with the thick green markings on them :(

I just emailed you oldtim....hope it works for you!

joanelizbay 11-18-2014 10:00 AM

I agree about the green rulers...I find it very hard to read! The ones I just got from Joanns are white with yellow markings...hope they are not hard to read!

I agree amazon is a good source also be sure to check eBay and overstock.com I have been able to get great deals on rulers and other notions from all three of these sites.

For something to do - check out the prices on-line at JoAnn, WalMart, Hancock, and wherever else - for some items.

I learned that one source (WalMart) regular asking price for an lfa rotary cutter was less than JoAnn's 40% off price.

The comparison pricing exercize was interesting.
