Jo-Ann Fabrics
Somehow I got my hands on the new flyer a bit earlier than intended (dated for delivery between Dec 21-24), so if you haven't gotten it yet, keep an eye out! The sales prices don't take affect til the 26th, but there is a coupon on the back for 40% off any one item that's good now through January 12th. The previous flyer I received has coupons for 40% and 50% off one regularly priced item that are good all the way through December 24. Coupon Commotion lasts through December 20th (that's TODAY), and those coupons are in the center of that flyer – including five 50% off coupons for any regular-priced item - so get in there tonight if you can! There are usually flyers inside the front door of the store, so always check the basket on your way in – mine’s been empty lately, but it doesn’t hurt to look.
To get another Jo-Ann coupon, go to joann.com, and at the bottom of the page under Shop, click on Store locator. Enter your zip code (if it doesn’t already show your nearest store). When you get the results, click on “More Store Information” and a link to a coupon will pop up. On the website there is a coupon for 15% off your total purchase (online only), and an in store only coupon for 50% off one regular-priced item, both good through December 22nd, so check again next week to see the new coupons. Be sure to sign up for the emails, their mailing list, get the app, and Like Jo-Ann Fabrics on Facebook for even more deals.

They have the usual printable coupon for 40% off any regularly priced item.

Craftsy
Craftsy currently ships to the USA and Canada only, but they should have International shipping options very soon! I’ll be watching this closely! Most shipments take a week, so right now is a good time to order the yarn to make project for yourself!
Currently at Craftsy they are offering up to 75% off on yarn – including some gorgeous stuff you won’t find in the big box stores, like Cascade, Rowan, and Skacel! This is a great way to try those yarns you can’t get without a local yarn store. There are too many to list, so click here and then go to the Shop to check them out! There are also some great sets and other crafty items that make great gifts for crafters, and you can give class gift cards too.
