I too love Hobby Lobby, and so do my girls. I find thier prices better than Michaels for craft items. While I normally buy my fabric from quilt shops I buy many notions here and they carry Warm & White/Natural battings. It's a very fun store to browse. Enjoy.

I like Hobby Lobby a lot - you just have to remember to not go on a Sunday and always know what is or isn't on sale. They don't have scanners and enter everything in by hand and if the cashier doesn't know it's on sale, you could miss out on the savings... I have been lucky though and not have had a cashier miss out on a sale but I have heard others who have been less fortunate.
I do like my Hobby Lobby a lot :)

Waaayyyy WAAAAYYYYY better than JoAnn's IMHO :) They started in OK, corporate HQ in Oklahoma City. They're Christian owned and their employees are treated very well. They start at $10 an hour. Last Christmas, for a bonus, all employees received $100 for every year they've worked there. I know several who've been happily employed by Hobby Lobby for many years.
I've found their home decor fabrics selection to be fabulous. They carry Debbie Mumm Fabrics and I enjoy those. Their home decor section is wonderful and they very often have 50% off all wall decor or lamps, for example. I can always find things I love for my home. It truly is one of my favorite stores and I think you'll enjoy having one in your town :)

the home decor is AMAZING!!! they have MAN crafts also! all sorts of painting and art. minitures. model cars. coin collecting.
BEADS! scrapbook. LOTS of kids crafts! and did I mention the home decor???
they dont have as BIG of a fabric selection as Joann but they have current styles! and the prints are to die for!!!
they also have weekly coupons that they email to you and you print. be sure to sign up for these on the website.

Lots of home dec. items though - but huge selections of seasonal home dec. items - Christmas, Easter, etc. They are not open on Sunday's - religous reasons. Look for their coupons in the Sunday papers - somethings are always on sale.

Did I mention most of the Hobby Lobby's I've visited carry the Minky Chenille? There's a large Hobby Lobby warehouse (huge discounts) in Oklahoma City that I plan to visit next week while visiting my daughter and son in-law and am soooo hoping they have some there :)
