Craft Shopping
So excited to be able to visit Michaels, Jo-Ann’s and Hobby Lobby. We’re staying in a villa at Sunset Lakes so can anyone advise where the local ones are and give me tips on coupons. Thank you

There's a Michaels at Phillips Crossing, which is just down the I4 from there, there's also one near the Florida Mall.
I usually go to Joann's on the 192. I think all 3 may have locations on or near The Loop as well - just remember Hobby Lobby is closed Sundays. Also look for Tuesday Mornings - closer to TK Maxx, and a bit hit and miss, but you can sometimes get some bargains. As far as vouchers go, try signing up online, although you may need to wait until you get over there, and also if possible download the apps. Try and plan a couple of visits depending how long you're there, as you'll likely get a load of vouchers at the till for the next one! One of them at least will take competitors' vouchers, but I'm not sure which. Oh, and don't dismiss Walmart and Target for craft shopping, you can find some odd bargains there, too, depending what you're after! Most of all, have fun! /Mo |

Thank you. I have already warned my kids - I’ll probably place them somewhere with food and let them play on their phones (they are teenagers) so I can look around without their ‘help’. I’m after project life stuff, perhaps a happy planner or two and who knows what else. I have also already warned DH that extra suitcase space will be needed.

We will often have a "pool day" at the villa which entails my wife and one of my daughters heading off for a few hours to mooch around the craft shops. Does anyone know if there is a good independent or smaller chain locally (Davenport/Kissimmee) other than the usual 3?

Hobby Lobby are at Centreview, just past the Loop and also one near Mall of Millenia. All worth a look in.
If you do beading and jewellery making like me, check out the Fireline fishing line in Dicks Sporting Goods, its the same brand for crafting and fishing, but fishing line is much cheaper and comes on bigger rolls!
