It was sale week at JoAnn's last week & I needed some fabric for the quilt I'm working on. I took my 50% coupon & went in. I normally never find exactly what I'm looking for & have to make do. I went right to the exact fabric, same color, I put the bolt in my wagon & moved on. I got a new silver marking pencil, went to get my cutting #. Now I can't stand for long w/out major pain & consequences, but I my # was 49 & they were servicing 32. Everyone had baskets running over with treasures to be cut. DH was having fun browsing & kept checking on me. I kept looking around that area. Found a great navy cotton with white dots for $2.50 yard, 3 spools of ribbon I needed for 99 cents (for the 3), then DH starts telling me to try varigated threads. I managed to keep on my feet, but my legs were wobbly, my back was roaring & I was so sick to my stomach, didn't know if I'd make it to the car...but I finally got my treasures!! LOL!! Still paying for it today, but this will pass too eventually. Never again though!!!

I hate crowds and long lines. Unless I really want something, I leave rather than deal with them.
