I don't know if all of their stores are that way, but our local store is. Unlike two of their nearby competitors, they won't ring the item up at the regular price, either, so that you can use the coupon. I've pretty much given up on shopping there.

Add to that, the expensive regular priced items (like round cutting blades or scissors) are too often "out of stock" only on sale day. So tempted to hide them among the fabric bolts the day before the sale.......
