They didn't need to be cut so I grabbed all I could (took my sewing cart with me because I knew there wouldn't be any shopping carts) and headed to the check out. I was in and out of there in a little over an hour! That stash of flannel will go with me to the hospital on Tuesday and should last us until I go again next year. I'm a happy camper!
Lucky you...Our Joann's won't allow you to buy a whole bolt, unless being sold as a bolt and is packaged as such, without it still being opened and measured...They say they still have to scan and give you the receipt for register plus they must make sure that it's 8 yrds not more not less. Such a pain because I use to always buy bolts of heat and bond, wonder under UGH...
