Fabric how to save Where to buy

If you are like me, you are constantly hunting quality fabric at good prices.  Over the years of sewing with buying wholesale and selling retail, I have found a few things that helped me and maybe you as well
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Marshall's Dry Goods in Batesville, Ar,  this is one of the best places you can go.  They offer over 30 different name brand fabrics.  Including batting, upholstery fabric, vinyl, and cotton.
They are some of the nicest people I have worked with for years now.  They are located in an old historical building in Batesville--half of the building is retail and the other half is wholesale.  Wholesale starts at $1.90 per yard to 3.60 per yard in 15 yard bolts.  An example on their great prices is to buy wholesale westminister(amy butler-free spirit) I have paid $4.45 a yard plus shipping thru westminister wholesale.  At Marshall's I pay 1.90 to 2.50 for same grade fabric.
On the resale side women's groups come in vans to take advantage of their great prices, from 1.60 to 4.00 per yard.  The do have an online store but does not offer what they have in stock at their shop and prices vary at the online store.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Jo-Ann's fabric to me is a little high priced, but offer great instore sales.  I have found I have a hard time making it to the shop so I have bought on line, which I was not happy to see $6.00 shipping for 4 yards of fabric, but I am happy to say when I got the fabric, I was given a coupon for free shipping  minimum $35.00 order.  Also included was a 50% off for both online and instore purchases.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Fabric.com   This is an online store offering name brands at great prices.  They always have good sales going and offers free shipping for $35.00 or more so get your girlfriends together and order over 35.00 and all get free shipping. When my fabric arrives there is a 15% off couplon in the shipment.


Happy crafting
