Yep. Years and years ago now my DH and I were on a trip to Germany. We were looking for something else and came across (accidentally) a fabric/quilting store. I asked him if we could go in and told him I'd spend 5 euro! (Thinking I could maybe get half a meter.) I think I got about 8 or 9" of fabric. Too funny...and very sad. The fabric I bought was beautiful but back then it was running over $20/meter--can't really imagine what it would be now.
