30% Discount Table
Regular customers probably remember the 30% Off Table
near the back of the store. But, did you know it changes
twice a month. This means that there is always something new and
it just might be what you are looking for. Drop by and see the
selection - for 30% off how can you go wrong?
However, remember the 50% Off Table? Well, new
items are often added to this collection of fabrics so drop in
as you are in the area to see if there is a piece you just can't
live without adding to your stash!
