    Wal-Mart Rip Stop

    I went to my local Wal-Mart yesterday and it's official, they are closing the fabric dept. The good news is I got 30 yards of Rip Stop for $.75 a yard. So 21 bucks for all they had. I have two more stores to check. Now I need to learn to sew.
    If it weren't for physics and law enforcement, I'd be unstoppable.

    No it's olive drab. However, each bolt is a little different shade. Almost not noticeable unless you put them next to each other. Today at lunch I will make my assault on one of my two remaining stores for the hunt.

    All the stores around me in other towns has closed the fab centers except the only WM in my town. One woman knew what rip stop was and said she has never seen it here in 4yrs she has been there. Go figure the only WM around me that kept the fab center never gets RS for some reason. Every time I go there I still go look.
