    I agree. I never use the percentage of the total coupons because it usually not more than the 15% I get with my resale card. It is nice that they take more than One coupon on a sale. It is fun to get that little extra in these tough times....

    My SIL had a really nice % off coupon, but she couldn't find one single thing in the store that wasn't on sale. She emailed the company to complain - at least she let them know she wasn't happy.

    I often wonder if Joanns stopped spending the money on printing the flyers and the useless coupons how much less they could afford to charge for their fabric! Drives me crazy to cut out all the coupons and then get there and none of them are ever any good because everything is 25% or 30% off already!

    It depends on the cashier. Some are nice and work with you. Some actually scan in extra coupons for you. If you get a salty one, break up your order. I always take my husband with me and we end up with multiple transactions. When they see him on line again and again while I'm at the cutting table, the nice ones come out of hiding and tell him he can do it all at once.

    You can use the discount card only on items that are not on sale... so if it isn't on sale, you can get 10% off non-sale items. But, if all you buy is sale items, then you can't use the discount card.

    I use mine with the coupons all the time. I have never had any problems.

    My problem is that I have a VIP card and forget I have it. I have rarely used it. I don't shop there much any more and never pay full price for anything when I DO shop there. I find I can do better on most products by shopping online with shops that have free shipping offers.

    Our local store was flooded when hurricane Irene came and I have withdrawals. I would have to travel close to 100 miles to the next JoAnn's to use my coupons. Border's also went out of business, so no more browsing the quilt magazines. I'm sorry for being such a cry baby. There are many people that are suffering a lot more than this because of the hurricane.

    I am on the email list from Joann's and I printed off the coupon which was 20% off on the entire order. This was my first time to try this and the clerk didn't bat an eye. I had already used a 40% coupon off for the Olfa rotating cutting mat and saved quite a bit! So any of you that get the emails, print the coupons!
