I went yesterday, and discovered 2 of my coupons aren't valid until January 6. Oh, well. But they had Pellon batting on sale - 50% off. I bought a queen sized piece for about $15, and used my one valid coupon for 5 yards of Kona white.
Are you returning to DHS? Maybe we can try getting together this year!
Yay!! Paulette, do you or hubby have a smart phone (vs a dumb one)? Download the Joann app and this will give you even more coupons! They will take as many coupons as you have! (1 or each item-if not on sale). In fact I must just head there myself today! Don't you just love your IPAD. Hey, if you don't have a smart phone take in your IPAD! Have fun!
I am a wife, mother of three adult daughters, retired school teacher and crafter. I love quilting, making jewelry, stitching, felting and scrapbooking but quilting is my BIG passion.
