I joined the Fabshop Hop and they are currently having a sale. The site introduces you to about 180+ quilt shops some of which have sales. I particularly like the "find the bunny" game and play every month, so the sales are always going on. A few of my favorites are through this site, and there are plenty of $5/yard [or less] fabrics. Here is the link to be a member, free of course!
