Hi Everyone, just thought I'd pass this on. At Joann's, you can apply for an educator or student card. I save 15% on every purchase with my educator's card. This is in addition to any sale prices. Students can save 10% on purchases. You have to show proof of profession or student status and you'll get the card in the mail in a couple of weeks. I have saved sooooo much $$ using it for quilting supplies, gardening deco, and baking items. I bought one the large cutting mats using the 50% coupon plus my 15%. Joann's doesn't have all the selection found in some quilting shops, but I enjoy shopping there and usually find something I really like and can use. This week they're having a huge sale!!
