Did anyone mention books? I have a few electronic quilt books, but prefer paper copies...just seems easier to browse and read the directions. I get most of my quilt books ( a weakness) from Joanns or Half Price Books. I'm lucky in that I live about a mile from a nice Joann' s superstore and can really maximize coupons. I also get batting, thread, and notions. When they are on sale I also use my teacher's discount for an additional 15% off. I rarely get anything full price there...just wait until what I want is on sale.
