    Walmart restock

    You might want to start checking walmart for ripstop/dwr and Sil. I noticed last week at my wifes store they had got a new shipment in and there was some green sil. I have enough green so I left it. Today I was at my local one and picked up some black DWR(might be sil, have not had time to do any tests). There was more colors there but when I realized I had black in my hand, I forgot to keep checking.

    So, for all you DIYers, you might want to take a trip.


    On a side note: My wife just rolled her eyes and said "I knew I shouldn't of sent you to the store." My response was "Well, if you didn't want me to pick up printing paper, I wouldn't of been close to the fabric department."

    Are you sure it's sil? If so, I sure would like to have it. If you want to pick that sil up next time you go back I will buy it off you.

    I didn't pull it out, but it felt like sil from the end. I'm going away on vacation so will not be able to check until I get back. It should still be there, there has been 3 bolts of 1.1 camo ripstop there for months.

    No dice for sil on my walmart run over lunch break. Looks like they had a fresh shipment in and had grey (narrow) ripstop but no sil.

    I'm going to check the other Walmart on the way home.

    I ran up to our WM SC and they stopped selling fabrics altogether. I'll have to check some of the other stores. I've found lots of ripstop and silnylon at WM in the past.

    My WalMart has several bolts of the common camo ripstop that every other WalMart seems to have these days. I haven't seen any other colors there though. It's priced at $3.97/yard.

    I hit two other Walmarts on the way home yesterday with no luck. Not even any camo rip stop.
