Never been to Hobby Lobby... debating driving to one tomorrow (about 45 min away). What are your must haves from Hobby Lobby that I should check out?

thanks~

    I think I've bought everything but my candy for my favors from Hobby Lobby. Even my dress material. All of their wedding stuff labeled His & hers is half off this week. It includes cake toppers, guest books, toasting flutes (no I don't work for them, I just practically live there right now!).

    I'm going to go there tomorrow. HAHA. I was planning on checking out what they have for wedding programs. Good luck. I may see you there. LOL.

    I'll let you know what else is good there when I'm there tomorrow. We are driving 40 mins away to get to this place too.

    I got my toasting flutes, serving set, guest book and matching pen from Hobby Lobby. And when the veiling stuff stuff goes on sale my mom will get it she works there so it is perfect. Make Sure you use a 40% of coupon too.

    Does anyone know about how frequently they run their 50% wedding sale? The closest Hobby Lobby to me is almost an hour and a half drive but I will definitely be making the trip once I make more decisions regarding the decor.

    They seem to be running it about every other week right now. I've never seen anything go longer than about 6 weeks without a half off sale.

    I go there so much, I have their app on my phone. It gives you a digital code for the 40% coupon!

    The wedding stuff is half off now (through Saturday when the ad is good through). It goes half off like every other week, along with flowers, glass, etc.

    Only go when the His and Her's stuff is 50% off. It's pretty much every other week.

    For me, I'm getting my flowers (the Natural Touch ones), and possibly will be picking up Swarovski crystal flatbacks to do some shoes, since I think I changed my mind on my reception shoes. I didn't realize how much dancing FH was planning on doing, and I don't think flats are going to work for me for that. :/

    I am very disappointed with my visit to Hobby Lobby in Antioch today. There was only 1 1/2 aisles dedicated to the wedding stuff. It was not worth the 45 mins drive. The selection is the same as Michaels and Michaels is only 10 mins away from us. I bought some scrapbooking items but that was it. There was only 1 box of wedding programs and maybe 10 different boxes of wedding invitations. The ribbon selection is the same as Michaels. No more no less.

    For me, Hobby Lobby waa not worth the drive.

    Frames and candles. However as far as wedding stuff, they don't have much at all. I was very disappointed. I think Michaels has a better selection and they don't have much either!

    Check their weekly ad to see what half off sales they have before you go. Only make the trip if you have a specific item you need during their sales.
