Every time somebody buys sale fabric at my local JoAnns and tries to use
the coupon, they tell them the same thing. The reason is that it would
be giving a "double discount" which isn't allowed. If something is on
sale for 30% off and you want to use the 50% coupon, you will get 50%
off the regular price...just the way it has always worked..even from the
days when I worked at JoAnns (years ago, it seems)

I had a 50% off coupon that was expiring on the 3rd so I went in that day.
They had some fabric that I wanted on sale. But when I gave the coupon to
the girl cutting the fabric she rang it up at regular price and said that
with a coupon it automatically prices at regular price, that I can't get the
sale price with a coupon. I told her that I had done it in the past and she
refused to give me the sale price with the coupon. I was ticked. She was
rather rude too. The only problem is, there just aren't many fabric stores
worth anything around where I live so my choices are pretty limited to
JoAnns and Walmart.

I added to the subject line of this thread. I feel like such a fool. I
know
not to shop at Joann's. I've had so many bad experiences there before,
but they
were having a half off sale on quilting notions, and I need a new Fiskars
acrylic 6" x 24" ruler so I decided to go. Sure enough, I got there, and
they
told me that some of their rulers are quilting notions and therefore on
sale,
but the Fiskars one isn't. Classic bait and switch. I walked out without
buying anything, and I'm sure it will be ages before I'm tempted to go
back and
try again, but I still feel like an idiot for thinking this time would be
different.
