I can relate to the comment about Walmart and pallets in the way. A few months ago my husband and I decided to make a late night trip to our 24hr Walmart to do a little shopping and I was so frustrated by all the pallets everywhere. I could've understood a couple here and there but it was crazy to have them all over to such an extent that it was impossible to shop. So now we either battle the crowds during the day or battle the pallets in the evening---not sure which is worse.
Since I live in a fairly small town the only 2 local spots for fabric are Walmart and Joann's. I like to buy WM fabric when it's discounted since I sew clothing items as well---unlike some other comments I've seen on the forum I have had good luck and there's always someone in the department to cut what I need. The only bad experience was when they were doing inventory because they had huge tables setup in the entire department in front of the displays so there was no way to shop but that was only for about 10 days.
I haven't encountered inventory at Joann's yet but I'm sure that it would be crazy! I would think they would do it after hours as well. I used to manage a small retail store and we always did our inventory after hours but that was several years ago. The workers in my Joann's are always very friendly and over the past couple months of shopping a couple of them actually recognize me (I won't tell my husband this because he would think this is a bad sign). All this talk about fabric now has me wanting to go shopping :-(
