  I just got back from there, got there around 3. I got about 50 yrds of flannel, not problem. They were on number 47 and I was 58. Got a number as soon as I got there and by the time I was done shopping, I only had 1person in front of me!

  I didn't leave the house til about 7ish.  Decided to go shopping on a whim b/c I'd never done BF shopping.  The mall wasn't bad at all and it looked like the Walmart I passed had PLENTY of spaces.  Walked in to Michaels and got out fairly quickly, so much easier than going there on a Saturday.  But Joanns.  Holy crap! I got there about 930 and couldn't even get into the fabric section if I wanted to.  It was packed.  I wandered around a bit, but left - that was too much for me!

  After hearing the horror stories of 3 hour cutting lines I was a little scared, but I braved Jo-Ann around 7:30 this morning. It was no big deal at all. I was #73 when I got there and they were on #67. Several numbers were no shows so the line took no time at all. I didn't get a lot of fabric, maybe 20 yards total. I picked up a couple other things, including a 12x12 stack of 180 for $10!

  I didn't brave Joann's, but I did make it to Michaels.  It wasn't too bad at Michales.  I only waited about 10 mins in line to checkout and was able to use 2 coupons with my transaction.

  I might try Joann's today.

  I went to both yesterday morning.  Michaels around 6sih and it wasnt bad at all.  I got a bunch of scrapbook paper and some storage cubes.  And there were only two people in line ahead of me at the check out.  After that I went across the stree to Joann, so about 645ish and the fabric line was crazy.  My Joann didnt seem to be using numbers.  There was just a long line the wrapped around the store.  I grabbed the couple of items I came for and got in the check out line.  And there was only one person ahead of me.  They had someone at every register so it was nice.

  I went at 5pm, figuring it wouldn't be too bad.  I grabbed a number when we got there and they were ready to cut for me 5 minutes later when I had pretty much decided what I wanted.  The check out was a little slower, but not bad.

  I went today (Saturday) and they still had some awesome deals on fabric.  I waited for about 40 minutes in line but I was there with my mom so I had someone to chat with.  I was excited when I got the the cash register and they told me my total... so worth it!
