411--tech and nonsense
Apr. 21st, 2007 09:20 am1. Does anyone have a PDA with a mini keyboard? Do you use it, find it comfortable? Can I try it out?
2. Does anyone have a small recording device to sell. I mean like, smallnote taking device. Yes, am shopping. Yes, I will Craigs list. So far checking local business stores and staples, office max, office depot on line.
What seems to be in my price range will be mini cassettes--but I think I spotted a digital for $40? That sounds a bit low for digital.

Hancock Fabric stores closing
Apr. 10th, 2007 08:39 amHancock Fabrics is filing bankruptcy (Chapt 11?) and the Vacaville and Citrus Heights will be closing.
Dammit. They had the best trim, and I could actually get through their lines in less than 1/2 hour---unlike Joann's.
On the bright side, 30-60% off. In Vacaville, I bought their last 6 skeins of heather navy Lion Brand Wools Ease at 40% off. Tempted to go back for some beautiful tri-colored yarns.
LOTs of ribbon for Dicken's folk. LOTS of serger thread.
All the serger and most of the sewing machines have sold. There is a White that is normally $119, now 30% off. Tempting.

Shopping Buddy
Sep. 7th, 2005 11:48 pmI need to purchase skirt fabric this weekend. Either JoAnn's in Woodland, or JoAnn's or Hancocks in Vacaville.
I've got the basic instructions from a wonderful instructor. She Who is Wise cautioned me to take someone with me to choose colors. I figure anytime from Friday evening up through Sunday. Saturday might be iffy, but will see. Any takers?
