    Default New JoAnns Coming our way

    For those of you in the Upstate South Carolina, we are getting a new JoAnns. It is going to be in the Toys R Us building off of Haywood. The sign in front says it will open July 26, I think it was. Should be great to have it available to us.

    Very nice!! Redmond, Oregon is getting a Jo-Ann's also. Which makes two for our area. The first one is in Bend, which I go to all the time. Redmond is about 45 minutes from my front door.

    The Jo-Ann's in Panama City, FL is also moving into a large space. When is anyone's guess. I went to the current location on Sat and there wasn't much left in store. I just hope that when it reopens that they have more than 2 people working.

    We are getting ours back here in Grand Rapids Michigan! They closed on our side of town several years ago to open a super store way out on the other end of town. Must be they got too many complaints about it, and the new one opens in a month back in our neighborhood! Yeah!

    We are getting one in Marinette, Wi. This is a very small area and it seems odd they would put one here, but it will save me a 45 min drive. I wish I was able to work I would get a job there for sure

    I've been to the one near Costco, its quite expensive. Even with a sale going on I couldn't afford their prices, lol.

    Our closest one is 35-40 mins south and just had Sears and now Penny's at mall close. Wish they would open a Jo-ann's or hobby Lobby or something hobby related here, as it is 40 miles other direction to them. Just had a Tractor Supply, due for grand opening next week go into old Wal-Mart after they built new one. So many senoirs here, you would think a hobby store would do good.

    I have to drive to the southern outskirts of Charlotte to get to a JoAnn's. It's a good 40-45 minute drive. Before it opened the closest one was in Columbia. I know you're glad to have one close to you!
