Craft Store Coupons: Joann's Fabric and Crafts

I NEVER, I mean NEVER go to a craft store without a coupon.  If you haven't entered into the realm of craft store coupons, or you want to learn some tricks maybe you didn't know about craft store coupons, read on...read on.  I have broken it down by store with this post being about Joann's Fabric and Crafts. 


Joann's Fabric and Crafts
The #1 thing I like about Joann's is that when you checkout you can use as many coupons as you want!   That's right, as many as you want!   


The Rules
-First of all what is a good coupon for/from Joann's?  From my experience a good coupon for Joann's is one that is at least 40% off, you can often find 50% off as well, especially on fabric.  The coupons that say spend $25 and get $5 off aren't usually that good. 
-You can use any coupons that have different bar code numbers...so your mailer may have 2 coupons you can use at one checkout (if they have different bar code numbers).
-They accept coupons from other craft stores like michael's and hobby lobby.  (you can bring one from each store)...but, you can only buy something with that coupon that you would normally get at that store, so you can't use a Micheal's coupon for fabric...cause they don't sell fabric there...:)
-In one checkout you can use Joann store coupons from online, their mailers, and their in store ad (if they have different bar codes, and from my experience they always do)   
-Say you forgot your coupons from online, or you just happen to see a joann's and weren't planning to go there so you don't have your coupons....You can use your I-phone or smart phone to pull up coupons on your phone, and they will accept them.

SOOO...you can checkout with a coupon from your mailer, one from your email, one from their in store ad, one from hobby lobby, and one from Micheal's all in one checkout!


HOW TO SIGN UP FOR COUPONS
Here's where do sign up to get coupons sent in the mail and through email (also through this link you can also JUST sign up for 1 service of having them sent through email or postal mail)
