came out with the button, 3 queen size warm and natural batting (On sale for 9.99) 3 yards of fabric and a chocolate bar
I have no will power :(

David

at least you remembered the button ;-)

True, I would have gotten home with all the other goodies and then remembered I went for a button :oops:

LOL--no doubt!
I've gone to stores for one small item and came out with everything but what I went in there for !

Haha I have to go today for a spool of thread. It's likely the same will happen to me :)

:D :D :D

I bought some of that warm and natural batting too. Good deal.

Lol* That sounds like my kind of shopping trip ;)

Me too :oops:

You did remember on of the most important things..the chocolate!! lol

Thanks for the heads up! I didn't know W&N is on sale. I better head there tomorrow!

I would have forgotten the button.....

ditto!

do it all the time go for 1 thing and come out with an arm full.

I didn't do so bad at Joann's today I went in for one spool of thread and came out with 6 spools. Then took myself to lunch on the $3.92 that I had left over from the $10.00 that I took from my DH that morning.:-)

Wow! Wish Joanns was here! I travel a lot for my job so I get to go to the ones in Colorado once a month.

:lol::lol: I would have forgotten the button too :D:D:D

You got a chocalate bar?!!!!! Well that just made the trip right there!

I never have will power anywhere that sells fabric. I THINK I am there for one item, come out with a bag full.

Batting followed me home from JoAnns also 50% off was just to good to pass up. Will have batting now for several large quilts plus a couple to cut up for smaller projects.

BWAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! (I can laugh, having done the same thing myself many times!)

You should never go grocery shopping when you are hungry! Since quilters are always hungry for more fabric, I don't know of a good time to go to a fabric store! Diane C.

Thank heaven you didn't forget the chocolate! And welcome to the club.

Exactly. I would have forgotten the button. lol

I am going to Joanne's this morning for batting. Don't need any buttons but I know that I will get more than just the batting. And, I will not forget my coupons.

I do it all the time. Can't pass up a good deal - or chocolate!

I find if I make a big list for sewing supplies, I never find what I want, how ever if I went for a button, I`d have all the luck in the world to find every thing I need.

HaHaHaHa, oh my i am normal, no more listening to my kids. they are the abnormal ones.

That always seems to happen to me. I come out with more than what I went in to buy. I need blinders!

Only one chocolate bar? Such amazing self-control. Go girl!

I don't think you're ALLOWED to only buy one item!

yeah I'd started on all the other stuff and would of forgotton the button....

Which is the item you have no will power (ha ha)?

Had the same problem - went for a set of buttons for the sweater I knit for my grandson. Needed only 5 buttons. Well...$125.00 later my daughter and I walked out with 4 bags full of fabric, patterns and of course, the buttons.

good for you David, i do the same thing

You sound like a very centered quilter. Chocolate helps carry all of the goodies home, Marvel

i went to joanns for that battingalso because it is a heck of a deal-queen size batting normally 24.99 for 10 bucks,but they were all out and giving rainchecks!

Sound like a good trip!!!!


I need plain white buttons for a yo-yo quilt I am making and don't know where to look; just plain white HELP????

:) :) :) Was your lack of will power 'giving in to the chocolate'? or giving in to the fabric and batting? :) :) :)
