Hi Ladies! I'm peeking my head out of the vintage machines area for this...
One thing that's worth mentioning about Fabricland is that these sales happen several times a year. Why? Their prices are so jacked up that "everyone" knows that you never buy from Fabricland unless it's on sale. A really good couple of examples:
I was in a LQS today, they were having an outlet sale, I looked at their regular prices and the sale prices. (Note, I'm a new enough quilter I'm not a moratorium for fabric)
Batiks: $16 on sale for $8 if you bought more than 2m (FL price $18 - $22 and rarely on sale, and not for this sale.)
Quilt Cotton: $15 - 18 on sale for $7 or $5 for more than 2m. (FL price $18 -25)
Klutz glove: $26.99 regular price. (FL price $42)
Fons and Porter Quilting Gloves: $5.75 (FL - $8.99)
Olfa 24x36 cutting mat: $70 (FL $129.99)
Schmetz Quilting needles: $4.75 (FL price over $8.)
Sort makes it easy to see how they can have these "sales" eh? Since I became a dealer for a major supplier in Canada, I've been even more disgusted with FL now that I've seen "wholesale" prices. I still have a membership, because I can't order fabric from my supplier, but that may soon come from over the border, or the LQS, since the prices are way better.
