Our Walmarts in NJ have $1. and $2. per yard tables of fabric as well
as many cottons for Home Dec and quilting. They also have some of the
shiny fabrics and lots of fleece.
The $1 and $2 a yards are often "mill ends" from prominent
manufacturers. I have found Kaufman fabrics here. If you don't grab
fabric when you see it, guaranteed, it will be gone by your next visit.
Sometimes I find cottons useful for charity sewing.
Friends have found fabrics in patterns and colors suitable for American
Civil War dresses!
It is definitely a hit or miss proposition.

Walmart carries garment quality fabric? I suppose it does depend

They carry fleece, and shiny prom dress fabric, and I've seen
pre-smocked sundress prints there, that's probably the majority of
what constitutes home sewing today. :(
