Ok.....where's the tape!!!!

[party of 3]

I went to m's in Mansfield and ALL the christmas stuff was
clearanced!!!!!!
Holy good god did I fall off the wagon and flat on my bum!!!!
All the Martha punches!!!!

Forgive me for I have sinned!!!!!

I feel so much better now that I got that off my chest!!!

[PrincessNancy96]

You should have texted or called.. I would have talked you back on the wagon!!! :)

The first step is admitting you fell off... the next step dust yourself off and hop back on!

[hopemax]

Holly, I will join you.

I went to Tuesday Morning to look for a large circle cookie cutter. Found it. But then I went to the scrapbook aisle. The 8 packs of American Crafts & Making Memories $1.99 paper just jumped at me. I was good though, I could have bought about 20 different styles of paper. I need paper like I need a whole in my head, but the AC stuff is so nice because it's double sided. When I use it in a swap, I never have to worry about finding coordinating color, or running out.

Here's a pic of my sin

I love it Hope!!

Nan I was in a scrapping haze when I
was in there!! I couldn't call!!

[ddavis860]

I was at Mikes today too, and fell off the wagon in the yarn dept. I could have spent more, and I had to have several conversations with myself. 1 project at a time... 1 project at a time... 1 project at a time...

[morgansmom2000]

Jump back up!

(Which ones did you get?)

[ddavis860]

double post

[morgansmom2000]

Oh, did you try any coffee yet?

[AlexWyattMommy]

So do I play good cop or bad cop?

Good cop - It's okay Holly, you just make sure you use them all, okay?

Bad cop - Hey you, girl! Go get some more.

[party of 3]

I did not try any coffee yet! ;)
dh brought it in for me but it's still in the
box.
I bought so many I'm not even sure which
ones!!!:lmao:
I did get you a few of the ones you needed!
dh was so funny..... Just get two of everything
and sort it out later with jersey pike Jenny!!!!!
I told him if he would just go in there when
he's plowing w/out me it would cost him
a lot less!!!!

Have I told you all how much I love my boys??!!

[PinballFamily]

Boy, when you fall, you really fall!

So...we want details, chickie....whatcha get and how much was it???

[joyah]

Holly for get the tape!! (did you get them all?);)


Buffy Get out the gorilla glue you saved for me!!! :lmao:

[party of 3]

I did not pay more than 4.00 for any of the punches I bought.
Even the sets of 2. Like the snowflake set 4 BUCKS !!
I mean how do you not buy it right???
Sei papper packs 4.00 calendar sets 4.00, making memories
christmas assessories all under a dollar. Tape .$79. I think
that was MM. Me and my big ideas Christmas pad 4.00.
The card making kit 3.00! Ek success border punches either 3 or 4
bucks.

[AlexWyattMommy]

bad cop: split the goods with me and nobody has to know your little secret

[party of 3]

Sounds like a plan Ann!!

Dh said at one point just take pics with your new phone
and put them on the dis and take orders!!!!

[Lisa]

That DH of yours is such a smart guy!

Yea on your deals!!!!!

[party of 3]

He is a smart guy. I :love: my boys!!!
I was so overwhelmed when I was in there and he was
booping the stuff for me and yelling back the prices and sending
bubba back to me to switch the stuff to boop!!!
The three of us were laughing so hard!! It was a scene!!
How they put up with me I'll never know !!

[joyah]

Holly to bad you couldn't get a tape of that it's had to have been funny. Or at least pictures. Glad you all had a great time.

[party of 3]

That would be fun to see the tapes from the store!

Nu uh!! I got my eye on you girlfriend! You are under surveillance!

Scuse me!!! You are sooooo not helping!!!

[party of 3]

Ut oh! Now I'm in trouble!
Who can I take down with me??!!

[BernardandMissBianca]

I'm not saying any names AWM I'll have to think about it AWM I wonder who's gonna be in trouble with Hol's AWM

[ZeroToHero]

:rotfl: to Buffy's AWM's and to the "booping" picture in my head

[party of 3]

I sooooooo love the bopper !!!!!!

I think they invented the bopper for me!!!!!

[AlexWyattMommy]

:woohoo::woohoo:
I'm under house arrest with Holly and her boys.
:woohoo::woohoo:


Psst - I'm heading to JoAnn's and Michael's with my circular $39.99 carts. Gonna make a stop at Tuesday Morning and see if I can score what Hopemax did. :thumbsup2

[party of 3]

Oh are the carts on sale??
I want the hello kitty font one.

[AlexWyattMommy]

I already have. I don't use it. Not even once since I got it last year.

Do you want to trade for it? It isn't in the clam shell anymore.

I have the shapes one too if you are interested.

[DisneyIsTerrific]

It's interesting how we all use things differently. I've used my Hello Kitty Font cart quite a few times. :confused3

[AlexWyattMommy]

I love the way it looks. That is why I got it. It is so darn cute.:cutie:

But since I got the SCAL, I hardly use my fonts anymore.

[morgansmom2000]

Everytime we crop together, Holly says "can you bring the Hello Kitty font?" I do, but if she had it at home, she could use it all the time!

She called me...I was not helpful...I said, "Which ones don't I have?" I am hopelessly addicted to stuff. I was wandering around the grocery store and I could hear her booping.

[MazdaUK]

It is so lucky I don't have stored like that! I've even cancelled my pampered chef party so I don't buy anything:headache:

[PinballFamily]

Ok - was I taped to you, Holly?

I fell off with a thud too, after reading her post. (So, it is ALL her fault!!!)

Mike's - Prima flower jars - 50 cents each (great colors - not Xmas ones), MS xmas punches - 2.99, MS glitter and microbeads 2.99, - rhinestone Xmas words - 4/$1. I was good and put back a lot of stuff from my basket (and didn't buy ANYTHING Tuesday after wandering through ACM with a 50% off coupon), but the Mike's clearance got me today. I was booping away like a crazy woman!

So, not only did my sponsors let me down...I could hear them whispering in my ear..."Come on, you *can't* leave that there for that price...." I even heard Mr. Crockett and Bubba...!

Z2H is ashamed of me. But, not so ashamed that she won't use any of the new stuff!!! :rotfl2:

Since we're fessin' up today's sins...
And I bought myself the two new MS pansy around the page punches (not in the combo pack, but 30% off) - may end up taking these back if I can find them at ACM sometime in the future (they are not there now) and use my ACM reward $$$ certificate and a 50% coupon on them...

I'll have to get creative (ahem) and temporarily move a few of the $20 bills around in our budget envelopes to hide my spree. But, I'm back on the wagon now - the stores are cleaned out! Yee 'ha!

[morgansmom2000]

So, I'm guessing you don't want to know that the Natick store has a TON of stuff that's on clearance, and then they take an additional 50% off that clearance price? They are moving (opening at the beginning of February) and don't want to bring it all with them. Just saying...

[PinballFamily]

Holy crapola!

I'll be good - schlepping out there doesn't happen too often. It's a good thing that I'm really busy over the next few days or else I might feel the urge to see if the car just kinda drives itself there...

[AlexWyattMommy]

I did not go shopping today. Kinda.

After my hair appointment I did go to Big Lots. I got the bottle of Scotch Quick Dry glue for $2 and 3 of the AdTech tape runner for $1.

Good girl am I. :)

[123SA]

I am not on the wagon --- why can't I find this stuff? I wandered around ACM this morning just looking for something to buy...I ended up with play-doh for my boys and paperoni for DD - -not really how I wanted to spend my Christmas money!

I am headed to Mike's tomorrow (but I don't have Chrsitmas money there! I have ACM and J's)

[party of 3]

Oh my pbf!
I love that you were booping like crazy!!!
:lmao: that you could hear mr.Crockett and bubba!
I wanted to get the ladybug punches but
I thought I had spent enough. I'm going
to wait until I have a 50% off coupon.

[BernardandMissBianca]

I'm going
to wait until I have a 50% off coupon.

Should I just let you off in the side of the road now???

[joyah]

Buffy :lmao::lmao::lmao::rotfl::rotfl:

[AlexWyattMommy]

You got your eye on her?

[morgansmom2000]

I just don't think there's room for me anymore...

[BernardandMissBianca]

You got your eye on her?

ding ding ding we have a winner!!!!


I just don't think there's room for me anymore...

Where? On the buckboard or in Holly's car cause it's filled with stuff???

There is always room on this wagon train!!

[hopemax]

Holly, you really did it, posting all your deals. We went to dinner in Boulder tonight, and between here and there is a Michaels. Apparently, it is a low traffic M's, because I came home with a ton of Martha Stewart punches. 3 different sets of the double ones, and I think 4 single border punches. Plus, a bunch of Recollections stickers, some Primas, and some Imaginesce clear stamps.

[party of 3]

Oh Hope I'm so glad you got some good deals!!
I love those Martha punches!!!

[hopemax]

They had a ton of the single ones. I could have bought probably another half dozen styles. I almost bought the gingerbread one but didn't. I hope I don't regret it later. Actually, I should check...maybe I did buy it. This is what's so bad...I don't even know what I bought!

[hopemax]

Okay, I DID get the gingerbread one. Here's everything I got

http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w234/hopemax/IMG_5260.jpg

Including, this highly appropriate punch :goodvibes

http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w234/hopemax/IMG_5261.jpg

[123SA]

Nice haul!

I went to M's today -- I got a SEI paper pack for $4.00 and I bought all of the clearance prima flowers (30 count) they had - -20 of them at 40 cents each! I guess everything I make for a while will have flowers.

[party of 3]

Of course you got that punch!!!! Everyone should have one
of those!!!!!
I love the dot punch set. I don't have that one! I need it!

[party of 3]

Susan I love that sei paper!



Hope I love those stamps too!

[ZeroToHero]

Soooo will my color swap be filled with flowery things? :rotfl:

Those black flowers that Hope got, I got some too, except probably for more than you paid, for the color swap...

[PinballFamily]

Hope, your haul looks a lot like mine! I did get the MS gingerbread edge punch too. I got the individual holly one and put back the holly edge border - hope I don't regret that - but...I got the pine needles one for $2 two weeks ago. I got the cheers edge one and the present edge ones too. I put back the champagne flute one...

In addition to those rhinestone words, I also got the large jars of the MS glitter and microbeads and 15 jars of the 30-count Prima "frosted flowers" @ 50 cents each - they are pretty cute.

There are a few items put away as gift items too - since I exchange gifts (um...frequently...with at least one other scrapper...!

[hopemax]

I think I'm going to regret not having them boop the frosted flowers. I saw them in an area that had sale signs but the signs were like 4/$1 on dollar items. But those flowers were $3, so I wasn't sure. Maybe I should go back up there tomorrow. I also found out that the big pack of Martha paper might have only been $4...

Go back Hope! That's where I found mine. I brought up one jar to ask since I had read here that some prima flowers were on sale. WHen the clerk said 40 cents, I thought she meant 40 cents off of $3.00 at first! I asked her to hold up my sale and then went and got the rest of them.

[party of 3]

I bought some of those flowers too. They were .50 at my store.

[MazdaUK]

All go and buy LOADS of them - you can use them in the prima swap next month:rolleyes1

[AlexWyattMommy]

:sad1: I want flowers too.

I really want that loopy corner and edge punch set. My Michaels didn't have any punches on clearance.

[party of 3]

Ann I might have have an extra loopy one. I bought so many
punches the other night just cause they were so cheap!!
I'll check and get back to you. :goodvibes

[AlexWyattMommy]

:hug: Thank you for looking.

[morgansmom2000]

Now I have to look for flowers! :rolleyes:

[morgansmom2000]

I love that presents punch, it's an embossing one too, right? I have the cocoa one, LOVE it! Oh, and the embossed scalloped edge, :love:

[party of 3]

I have the presents one but would love
the embossed scallop edge one. Is he a clearances
one??

[morgansmom2000]

I got it for half price at ACM, um...a month ago? Maybe more. I haven't seen it anywhere else.

Is there anything left at the NA Mike's? We're going to the movies tonight at the Cinema-Pub and I want to go over there afterward. Hopefully, they'll still be open. Date night!

[party of 3]

Oooooooohhhh date night!;)

it's all still there because they have it clearanced at high prices!
Why would I pay 10.00 for a punch when Mansfield had it at
3.00 and 4.00 ?
They will put it low priced in like the middle of summer. Or
something dumb like that. I was there yesterday and all still
there.

[party of 3]

Show me a link to that scallop border one please!!!

[joyah]

Holly am I going to have to drag you back on the the wagon? you are going to end up with a very bad case of road rash.:lmao:

Jennifer and Ann stop helping her!!!

[AlexWyattMommy]

Oooo, I want that one too.

[party of 3]

Me too!!!

[hopemax]

Went back out...got 2 of those packs of Martha cardstock, they were $4 each. And 22 jars of Primas for $.40 each! :woohoo:

I've decided not to feel guilty about this. My Tuesday Morning paper, and the 2 M's trips still cost me less than $100.

[TinkerBean]

I am going to be good, I am going to be good, I am going to be good...But it's killing me.

[DisneyIsTerrific]

Y'all are so bad!!!!:rotfl: But, you are getting some really geat deals. I sure my Michaels had some of that stuff, I'd be out there buying it all too! Either we get lots of scrappers in there and they bought it up or we don't get as much as your stores.

But, my Destinations cartridge and Cuttlebug dies from Cricut came today and I'm in :lovestruc. That is a great Cricut cart!!!!

[morgansmom2000]

$.40 bottles of Prima flowers? Heck, I'm looking for those tonight!

[AlexWyattMommy]

Where did you find the Destinations cart?

[morgansmom2000]

Where did you find the Destinations cart?

I think she ordered from Provo Craft directly. I haven't seen it in any stores yet.

[hopemax]

I just finished sorting my new flowers. I opened all the jars and reorganized so each jar is just one color flower. After I was done I had 6 extra jars. Then I "shifted all the flowers down the line"...I put the flowers from the half empty milk bottles into the jars, then I took the flowers in the half empty tall tubes/tall oval tubes and put them in the milk bottles. I have a drawer where the milk bottles will fit, but those taller ones wouldn't. So now I think if I take out the stuff that is in the drawer I am thinking of, I can get all my flowers in the drawer. Instead of 5 different places.

40 cents for flowers AND storage is awesome. If anyone doesn't want the little jars, I'll take em.

I found the jars of flowers in the same area as the leftover Christmas $1 spot Stocking Stuffer items.

[party of 3]

I just left the one in seekonk and nothing
good. All picked over. But I did find a k and co
photo block that you alter for 3.00. I could not
leave it there. ;)
and the farmers market and Bella casa
for 4.00. Again can't just leave it there can I??!!

[AlexWyattMommy]

Well, no. It all needs a good home. :thumbsup2

[morgansmom2000]

It would have cried if you had left it there. All the full price items make fun of the clearance stuff overnight. They don't know that someday, they'll be in the same position.

[party of 3]

:lmao::lmao::lmao:

they make fun of them!!!!!

That is just plain funny!!!!!

Completely OT, did you notice your smilie is a leftie?

[DisneyIsTerrific]

I think she ordered from Provo Craft directly. I haven't seen it in any stores yet.

I got it directly through Cricut since I had a $100 credit there from buying my Gypsy. I've been so wanting that cart and was so happy to see that it wasn't just an HSN exclusive anymore. I'm sure it'll be showing up in stores soon. I was just too impatient to wait since I had that credit. It's really a great cartridge.

[party of 3]

Completely OT, did you notice your smilie is a leftie?

I never noticed. But now I know.

[logan&tylersmama]

ok -- i worked 23 hours in the last 2 days so on the way home i stopped at michaels -- they had the marta punch arounds (2 punch pack) for $4.00 -- i got the snow flake one and the loops one --- I also got a THANKS one, a CHEERS one and a cityscape one :) The ladies with special needs love to use the punches in my scrapbooking class --- so that is why i justified that I NEEDED them. ;)
i also got some glitter glue with snowflake confettie in it for $.40, and a few other things I didnt really need -- but left with 2 bags full of great stuff for under $25.00

That's a good idea! Much better than keeping them in a bag on the floor of my diningroom :rotfl2: How many different color sets did you get?

[hopemax]

I got 4 different color sets. So I had 16 jars holding the new flowers, and then the 6 extras. What I laughed at, was I had a different number of each type. I had 7 of the dark/muted, 6 of the orange/red, 5 of the blue/pink, and 4 of the muted pastels.

Is that the week you are off? I think our April vacations are different.

We have the 15th(monday) and 16th(tuesday) off.

Just 2 days?!

[BernardandMissBianca]

Just 2 days?!

yeah, crappy isn't it!??!? And we have no snow days built into the calendar either. I think Mom has the whole week. Maybe I'll see if she wants to come too if I have to bring the kidlets. I hate taking them places alone, I'm drastically out numbered!

[morgansmom2000]

Okay, as it gets closer we can figure it out. :)

Maybe we can talk Rhonda, Danica and Pam into coming out of the City too!

[ZeroToHero]

Unfortunately, college doesn't have the same break schedule as you guys, so I only have the 15th off. But if everyone else can only do Tuesday, don't worry about me.

[party of 3]

The 15th is bubbas birthday. So he never has school on his
birthday. That's always winter break.

I'd love to get Rhonda Pam and Danica to come. And how
about Lisa. Let's not leave her out.
Can someone please gives the date of ckc that we are having
lunch so I can plan ahead. Bubba has lots of cub scouts stuff
coming up and I like to plan.
Thank you.

Early that week could work ok for us - we'll keep each other posted! Not sure about R - her kids are on a different schedule, too.

The 15th is bubbas birthday. So he never has school on his
birthday. That's always winter break.

I'd love to get Rhonda Pam and Danica to come. And how
about Lisa. Let's not leave her out.
Can someone please gives the date of ckc that we are having
lunch so I can plan ahead. Bubba has lots of cub scouts stuff
coming up and I like to plan.
Thank you.

CKC is April 30 - May 1. Lunch is on May 1.

I think Lisa will be in Disney that week.

Thank you!!

I got 4 different color sets. So I had 16 jars holding the new flowers, and then the 6 extras. What I laughed at, was I had a different number of each type. I had 7 of the dark/muted, 6 of the orange/red, 5 of the blue/pink, and 4 of the muted pastels.

$.40 bottles of Prima flowers? Heck, I'm looking for those tonight!

I just finished sorting my new flowers. I opened all the jars and reorganized so each jar is just one color flower. After I was done I had 6 extra jars. Then I "shifted all the flowers down the line"...I put the flowers from the half empty milk bottles into the jars, then I took the flowers in the half empty tall tubes/tall oval tubes and put them in the milk bottles. I have a drawer where the milk bottles will fit, but those taller ones wouldn't. So now I think if I take out the stuff that is in the drawer I am thinking of, I can get all my flowers in the drawer. Instead of 5 different places.

40 cents for flowers AND storage is awesome. If anyone doesn't want the little jars, I'll take em.

I found the jars of flowers in the same area as the leftover Christmas $1 spot Stocking Stuffer items.

Hope, your haul looks a lot like mine! I did get the MS gingerbread edge punch too. I got the individual holly one and put back the holly edge border - hope I don't regret that - but...I got the pine needles one for $2 two weeks ago. I got the cheers edge one and the present edge ones too. I put back the champagne flute one...

In addition to those rhinestone words, I also got the large jars of the MS glitter and microbeads and 15 jars of the 30-count Prima "frosted flowers" @ 50 cents each - they are pretty cute.

There are a few items put away as gift items too - since I exchange gifts (um...frequently...with at least one other scrapper...!

Go back Hope! That's where I found mine. I brought up one jar to ask since I had read here that some prima flowers were on sale. WHen the clerk said 40 cents, I thought she meant 40 cents off of $3.00 at first! I asked her to hold up my sale and then went and got the rest of them.

Ok, I'm coming out of lurkdum to ask, can I see a picture of these flowers so I can find them too?

[BernardandMissBianca]

Oh man!!! They've got new people coming out the wood work for deals.

Run away Bambi, run away!!!!!!! :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

That's just mean!

[PinballFamily]

Maybe she'll end up getting some as a gift...!

Well, the Ban tape clearly wasn't strong enough!!! I'll blame it on TinkerBean's son and mine - who had to be somewhere this morning together - and it was only five miles away from Natick....:rotfl2:

I got lucky at the closing Mike's in Natick with a few things - including nine more jars of Primas - didn't leave a single one @40 cents each. Virtually all the other clearance scrappy stuff is gone - but I did score a couple of nice MS punch around the page sets and the Fiskars corner embossing punches that I love for dirt cheap. Also a few of those boxes of American Crafts ribbon (the 6 pk) that are usually 5.99 each - I got for $1.25 each.

Didn't get anything at the Natick ACM - and only bought six 25-packs of the clearance 12 x 12 solid color cardstock papers at the Jo's - 97 cents each - great colors, too.

[joyah]

Pam your bad blaming it on innocent children :lmao::lmao:.

It's got to be the tape cause Buffy gorrilla glued my rearend to the wagon! I'm still there.

[morgansmom2000]

You beat me to them! If I get the huge amount of girl scout stuff I have to do done in time tomorrow, I'm going to Millbury for cheap flowers!

[Mickeyteacher]

I just wanted to let you all know that my DH is not going to let me play with ya'll much longer....
I made him stop at 3 different M's today to look for the flowers... and I'm happy to report that I am now the proud owner of 25 containers. He was not happy but oh well.

Now if I could just find some of the Martha punches.

I didn't either- they didn't have them for sale at my Mikes and when I got the punches at my mom's they were still $3 a jar.

Me either and I work at Michaels! We had them, but they got marked down when I wasn't there and they got picked up quickly.
