mandie_rwWas crabby today for various reasons, but day was improved by buying a truly excessive amount of wool from Joann's today. It's 75% off since our store's closing, plus my employee discount...equals a LOT of wool. Hey, it's nice wool, and while it's not $30/yd worth of nice, it's definitely less-than-$7.50/yd worth of nice!
I may or may not have bought most of what was left in our store. (Our store is quite small so that's not as expensive as it sounds.) If it's still there after payday I'll probably buy the rest of it and see if I can sell it on to one of you at a huge markup. *grin* It very well might be...things only went 75% today, but I've been working there for weeks, eyeballing the wool, and no one has bought it. I seem to live in more of a polyester-and-quilting-cotton kind of community.

Date: 2013-04-22 04:50 pm (UTC)We've still got a decent selection of linen, but it's only 50%, and since I'm not quite dying for want of linen, I'm going to hold off til that goes 75% too. People don't seem to buy natural fibres in my store, so it may still be there. (Especially once the bolts get wrapped up - what lunatic wants to buy a whole bolt of linen? hehe)
No silk, though, and I'm bummed! They haven't had it for ages - I guess when it ran out they didn't bother restocking since the store's moving.
