lucyismycat Posted October 30, 2008 Posted October 30, 2008 So who's with me at being first in line here?? Every year I show up at my local Joanns and wait outside for 10 minutes by myself. This store is next door to an Office Depot and those poor people have been in line for who knows how long. I'm sure they don't understand how somebody could pass up laptops and digital cameras for some fabric! (What they don't know is that I've already been to Meijers and gotten the rest of the stuff on my list.) Let's hear it for $1/yard flannel!
crashcartjockey Posted October 31, 2008 Posted October 31, 2008 Sorry, but my girlfriend dragged me into a Joann's on a BF a few years back. I swear that they had no more help working than on any other day. There we stood waiting in line for 45 minutes to get fabric cut, then another line to checkout. We spent more time in Joann's that morning that we had in the 5 stores previous combined. It's a good thing I love her, or I would have had to kill her for missing out on a whole bunch of deals.

Iliveforblckfri Posted October 31, 2008 Posted October 31, 2008 My vote is for their Saturday morning sale. I like Black Friday for sewing needles, but the sale on fleece gets me every time. Have fun
jmeoneill Posted October 31, 2008 Posted October 31, 2008 I will, I will. I think I have just enough space in my fabric room for one more package of needles. Doesn't every seamstress stockpile fabric?
freesia39 Posted October 31, 2008 Posted October 31, 2008 I will, I will. I think I have just enough space in my fabric room for one more package of needles. Doesn't every seamstress stockpile fabric?It's like me and yarn. Oooh if I only had room, the numerous skeins of yarn I could have... right now they're all squished in one plastic bin. I feel bad that they can't breathe.
Ohiocat2382 Posted November 24, 2008 Posted November 24, 2008 I'm not sure if anyone has found this yet or not but the Jo Ann's Black Friday ad is up on their website. http://joann.shoplocal.com/joannsalesflyer/Default.aspx?action=browsepageflash&storeid=2412309&rapid=621192&pagenumber=1&prvid=JoAnnStores-081128SA&promotioncode=JoAnnStores-081128SA Black Friday is almost here!!!
