Where does everyone buy their batting by the roll?

I used to buy mine from Kingsmen quilting supply. However, they are downsizing and don't have it by the roll anymore. I just checked out Marchalls dry goods and a 30 yard roll of 96" wide Hobbs 80/20 is $110 - with shipping to me it would be about 145 - making it 4.80 a yard. I prefer the Hobbs 80/20 over the warm and natural. I also like the Hobbs Wool.

Oh, I was hoping some of you were buying LARGE rolls of batting and could give me advice. I get mine directly from Hobbs, but have to order 4 rolls or boxes to get a good price and affordable shipping. I only use Hobbs 80/20 and their polydown. Learned my lesson trying to use cheaper battings.

On Wednesday, December 9, 2015 the clerk at the Omaha JoAnns told me the rolls aren't on the floor. She went to the backroom and brought out the box of 40 yd x 90" using a handcart. The sale price was $429 (marked down from $600+). Yikes...when I told her it was more than I was willing to pay, she was very offended. I just found a doorbuster price of $259. at Joann.com. No coupons apply.
I love the Request weight of both the Dream Cotton and Dream Blend battings. I order bolts directly from the Dream company. Shipping is $30 for a bolt. We also like the Warm and Natural which I have ordered the large bolt of 40 yards with a coupon during a sale from JoAnns. All have created nice weight quilts.
I live in rural Iowa which is 90+ miles from Omaha and St. Joseph so we order online.

Check out Walmart.com.....just got Pellon Natural Cotton 90"x 15 yds for $110....I am a diehard Dream cotton user too and it was really hard for me to switch to something I had never tried but I am very satisfied with it so much that I bought a second roll.

I buy the warm and natural on line from Joann's when they have it 50% off and free shipping. It is the 90" wide by 40 yds so it lasts me a while. It comes UPS so I don't have to haul it home in my car--just drag it to my sewing studio. I don't find the dark flecks any bother unless it is a white quilt then I will get the white warm and natural.

I buy 90" x 25yd rolls of Warm & Plush from walmart.com.
I paid $130 with free shipping for my last roll. I am super happy with it. It doesn't have the little seeds & twig bits that W&N does & it gives nice definition to my quilting. The price I received was better than JAF with a 60% off coupon.
