Ross like the discount clothing and home decor store?? Sorry if that's a stupid question, that's the only Ross we have here.
LOL! That is weird, but cool! Thanks for sharing, I will have to check it out tomorrow! 
I bought 3 - 2 lb containers, red, wedding white and chocolate for $11.99 each at our Ross a couple of weeks ago. I've never used Fonderific before but all three were hard as a rock when I opened them. I had to pre soften them in the microwave to use them. Not sure if that's normal to be so hard but you couldn't even cut it apart with a knife. I was able to use it but I mixed it with my regular fondant to keep it elastic. I think I'll stick with my Massa and Satin Ice. Pam
Funny thing is not a single one of them had an expiration date stamped on the label; they were all left blank...
I know! i too checked for the expiration date and could not find.
I think it's supposed to be that hard. It says on the side to put in micro to soften.

I'm guessing that the Duff's I get at Michaels here is the fondarific. And yes, it's hard as a rock. His has instructions on the side for microwaving it. 10 seconds per pound. and more as necessary. Just be careful not to over nuke it. But I love working with it. And even the black tastes good.
Okay I went back to Ross today to see if they had anymore Fondarific and guess what? All the colors were on clearance for $5.99 
(the Wedding White color was still regular price), but I still grabbed every bucket I could find of the ones on sale 
I figure even if I decide to try another brand later (gonna splurge on Massa one of these days), I can still use this for modeling and accents...

Lucky! 
Our Ross didn't have any! 
I'm thinking about trying another one.
i know you'd still have to pay for shipping, but fondx elite is on sale on their website for $10.99 for a 2lb tub {here at "that takes the cake" in austin its only $5 at the show!}

Thanks for sharing. Going to have to check it out. I did find some princess emulsion there recently.
I find Wilton pans at Ross here all the time, but never came across any fondant.
Have you checked the 'food' section, usually on the same shelves as the gourmet coffee, spices and candies? You might have to move some stuff around (the tubs I found today were behind some very large boxes of chocolate). This is the first time, well second, that I've purchased fondant there.
Also like VentureSister mentioned, they've started stocking some LorAnn emulsions and vanilla extract/paste. Before Thanksgiving I bought a bottle of vanilla paste, one almond, two orange, two lemon, and one princess cookie emulsions. They were all sold out by Christmas though. Strangely enough they had more emulsions today (but no vanilla paste
Oh and they rarely have Wilton pans at any of our Rosses. If they do they're either dented or sized wrong. I learned my lesson the hard way on the latter!
I got fonderific there today. They only had one. They did have the coconut and princess emulsions and vanilla paste. woo hoo
