Many of these sales only last through the weekend, so be sure to click on the name of the store for current prices if you’re shopping next week!

Michaels
On the site, enter your zip code to get the coupons for the store closest to you. This week I got a coupon for 40% off any regularly priced item. And don’t forget to hold onto your receipts – there are coupons printed at the bottom for more savings! Michaels has a mobile app with coupons as well, so be sure to download that if you can. Sign up for the email newsletter, and Like Michaels on Facebook for more coupon opportunities.

Not a whole lot on sale this week, and lots of empty shelves and my local Michaels the other day – hopefully yours is better stocked! Loops & Threads Pom-Pom, Bunny Tail, Country Loom, Charisma, Cozy Wool and Snuggly Wuggly, as well as Boa and Red Heart Soft are on sale through Saturday.

Jo-Ann Fabrics
The latest flyer is for the sale going on now through January 12th. There is a coupon for $5 off a $35 purchase, as well as a coupon for 10% off your total purchase, both good until the 5th. There’s a big Customer Appreciation coupon for 25% off your total purchase good for the 6th through the 8th, and there are also coupons for 40% and 50% off one regular-priced item good through the 12th. There are usually flyers inside the front door of the store, so always check the basket on your way in.

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 10% off your total purchase, and an online only coupon for free shipping with a minimum $40 purchase, both good through January 5th, 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.

It’s a good thing there are so many coupons that include sale merchandise this week, because every skein of yarn in the store is on sale for 25% off! In addition, dozens of yarns and needles are on sale on the website! Great time to stock up for all your planned projects – any maybe try a skein of something new!
