warm & natural
 
I just went to joanns to get some and the cutting lady said it is going up $1 a yard the 6th of feb. I bought the rest of the rolls and thought I could use my 50% off and then 20% on total purchase but the cashier said I couldn't. oh well just thought I would pass the info on in case anyone needs to save alittle.

WOW That is a lot. Thanks for the info.

I go to JoAnn's so often with a coupon and they tell me I can't use them. Seems that all my purchases are on sale so coupons can't be used. Just a way to get you in the store?

Some of the 20% off total purchase may vary, but I'm SURE I have used these in conjunction with each other. I'll be sure to read the fine print next time. Thanks!

I'm like you...more than a little perturbed at their coupon policies...and they change every time they print them! The ones for 20% off seem to me to be just bait to get you in there...it "ain't" like it ever happens!

Yes, I am about fed up with JA's, sure wish there was somewhere else to spend our hard earned bucks.

I noticed since Joanns was taken over that they have cracked down on using coupons. One girl got fired for allowing a customer to use too many on one purchase. Now you have to read the fine print to see if you can use it with others.

I just shop on line and not at Joanns anymore.

Yeah you can only use one at a time, the 20% one is only good if you are buying stuff already on sale so you don't need the 50% coupon

I think Jo'anns has learned that we all shop batting when its on sale or with a coupon. So taking the price up ensures that they will still make a good profit . The whole Jo 'Anns coupon/sale thing is to give you the perception that you got a good deal. Would you really pay $12.99 for some of their "quilters' cottons, but when its 30 percent off you feel a little better about it?!!! so its all in the buyers perception.

There is a reason the amount you saved is in a much bigger font on your reciept than anything else. It gets you to focus on the discount or the "savings" rather than the price you paid.
