I was just there last Friday! I go about 3 times a year. LOVE IT.
They have different qualities for sale in the store. Great name brand manufacturers down to craft store quality such as Springs Creative. I buy a ton of Riley Blake fabrics from them. I also get my battings by the roll there. They have the best price.
I LOVE Dream Cotton! It is identical to Moda Bella Solids, and according to my salesman is it made in the same factory. Perhaps it's even the same thing, sold under two names? They have another solid line called Smoothie, but it's lighter weight than the Dream Cotton. Dream Cotton is very high quality.
I spent the day scouring the $2.99 flat folds and found lots of great name brand manufacturer's mill ends. I didn't even look much at the wholesale, and didn't see the Kaufmann Batiks at all.
All good tho, I spent too much $$ as it was.... 
OnebyOne, there's a great little barbecue place called Fox Creek Barbecue, not 5 minutes away from Marshall's. I always eat there. Next time you go, try it out!

is Marshalls anywhere on the way to Paducah if you are coming from the Kansas City area? I'm hoping to get my DH to do a trip to Paducah within the next year or so and thinking that would be a nice "side trip"!

Marshall's in in Arkansas. It's a nice drive from Kansas City, very pretty country. Then you can head back up into western MO and cross over the two narrow high bridges (one over the Mississippi and the other over the Ohio) and then head into Paducha. Those bridges give both DH and I the willies! Then you could north into Illinois and through St. Louis to get back to Kansas City.
So not really on the route, but that would be a fun trip. And if you have more time, then swing farther north and hit MSQC too.
