Best price for a cricut

[Honeymooner04]

I'm brand new to scrapbooking and I've been doing a ton of research on what type of scrapbook I'd like to do and I've decided that I just HAVE to have a cricut. I see a wide range of prices on the internet but I'm wondering if I should be waiting for a special sale or something. What's the best price you've seen for a cricut (I'm thinking the original machine not the new expressions).

Thanks!

I got mine at Hobby Lobby for $194.99 back in February. We don't have an AC Moore's where I live and Walmart was sold out of them when I went to buy it, so I went with Hobby Lobby.

I got mine for $139 at Mike's on April 1st.

AC Moore has had them for $129 in recent weeks

the cheapest i have seen it was $125 at ac moore. i don't know if you have one of those, but they offer that occasionally and also have tuesday specials, and sometimes they do 50% off all cricut accessories.
