Has anyone been to Joann’s?

I went last week. They were allowing 17 at a time inside the store and people had to wait in a line outside, 6 feet apart. You had unlimited time inside the store.

They did have the designer AC Collections. It was on sale last week, not sure if it still is.

I was there last week for about 10 minutes. There was a good line outside for fabric, but they let others in (who weren't buying fabric) faster. My JoAnn's sells the AC designers but the store in the city south of me doesn't not. It is hit and miss. I'd call and ask. Mine has been selling it for about 2 years.

Stores with the Designer Destinations sections, are they selling the paper by the sheet like last year? Which lines?

Paper by the sheet isn't available online, so I'm curious as to what's actually on the shelves.

Mine shut it's doors right after getting the project Pads and embellishments, and I never saw any new individual sheets. 

Bloom street by Paige Evans, Never grow up by Shimelle, Picnic in the park by Amy T., Hey, hello by Jen Hadfield, Happy hooray by Pebbles and Grl Pwr by Damask Love. They all have 12x12 single sheets.

Yes, it was by the sheet. They also had the project pad. 

My store has them out and the last Designer Destination stuff wasn't stocked until it was already on clearance (my store's pretty bad with anything scrapbook related, usually). They opened on Saturday but their phone lines didn't update to say they were open until Monday. I had placed a large online order (that's so far had 5 items ship in 3 different shipments with like 10 or more items still left to ship) that I would have gotten in store if I had known they were open the day I ordered online. My store has everything out except for a few things...most of which I assume has sold out rather than not been stocked since embellishments sell fast, but there are still a few gaps (maybe 3 or so) of single sheet paper in the 3 collections I did my shopping in (Amy Tangerine, Paige Evans and Shimelle). I just spent about $25 on 60 sheets of paper today since loose paper is half off (the cashier manually added an extra 20% off for me)...it's about double what I'm usually willing to pay for that paper (I typically wait for 10/$2), but I really wanted to get my hands on some of it and I've really been hankering for some retail therapy. I will definitely be buying more (and checking out what sheets I missed that isn't stocked, yet) if one of those paper sales comes up.

Mine has these same lines on sale.  They also had some older ones from last fall.

Thank you! This helps me plan my online purchases so I know what to wait for and get at JoAnn when they reopen.

I just called my Joann’s. I placed an order on the 16th for pickup and, after the email telling me that they’re experiencing delays, it still shows as processing. The person I spoke to said that they’re currently working on orders from May 6!! I wonder if there’s hope that my paperpads will actually be in stock when they get to my order.
