I use a lot of acrylic for everyday sweaters and gifts, usually from Michaels, Walmart, Mary Maxim & destashes, because I want it machine wash/dry. For shawls/socks/sweaters for special occasions, I usually buy at festivals & my LYS which have higher quality stuff.  When I think about it I really shop for each project and buy the yarn that suits the needs for that project.  It runs the gamut from really cheap to really expensive and from anywere I can get what I want.  I have been known to even buy from antique and thrift stores.  Whatever works.
