I forgot to say that it was at Hancock Fabrics. I heard from someone on the crochet LJ that the hancock they were working at was having a sale due to a new shipment coming in, so stepmom had the great idea :idea to call the one near work and see if they, too, were half princing some yarn. What was even better was that we ahd the pick of the litter so to speak, the bags were not even out yet! We had to ask about them, and they shoved aside one of the shelves from a ring and out fell three of about 10 huge garbage bags FULL of wonderful yarn and said feel free to dig through it! I immedietly fell to the ground and started digging like I had to go china! :cheer SO it would not hurt to call the Hancock near you and see if they have yarn for sale too!:yay2
It will be like getting it all over again, when I get to open the box at home:mail !

i'll have to call mine.... half price isn't a big enough discount for me though..... girl, i'm cheap!! :lol
no, not cheap, VERY frugal.
we just budget very tightly in order to put as much in the bank as possible... (no credit here, my hubby has to pay cash for everything) i just had the contractor over to start all the plans for the remodeling stuff in the kitchen... but now this layoff/move thing, i don't know what to do :huh

sorry, guess i got a little off topic :ohdear

I am cheap, self admittedly (not that this purchase would show that!:p ), and I only buy with cash (or debit/checks) also. I love the yarn that I got, but today, I ave a little bit of the buyer's remorse rearing it's ugly head! I spent all the money I had set aside for the rest of this week, and next week! Oh well, I think it was worth it...:lol And Rebecca, I have a feeling that things will be OK. You and yours will figure it out. :hug
