Cheap albums - NEVER AGAIN!

[HunnyPots]

Don't you just hate it when you buy a less expensive product that turns out to be so inferior you end up having to buy a replacement, thereby spending more than you would have if you'd just bought something better to start with???

That's what happened to me. I decided to go cheap and just pick up one of those $9.96 albums from Michael's for my New Orleans 2005 book that I've almost finished. It looked good enough and I'm really trying to limit my spending these days. Well, I've just started putting my pages in and the thing is already coming apart! And I'm going to have to replace all the sheet protectors, as they just split open at the seams when you slide a page in.

I should have just a few dollars more and got a better album. When will I learn?

That is why I only use CM albums. In the long run they are so worth the money.

that is frustrating......did you bring it back for a refund? they should do it with no problem.

I would definitely take it back! I think the one I bought for WDW was the Pioneer fabric covered album and I have been impressed so far. I do not however like their tabs that replace the posts, they do not stay stuck to the book.

I won't be taking it back because it is a 45 minute drive for me to the nearest Michael's and I won't be going for any other reason any time soon. So it really isn't worth the gas money it would take to drive over and back. I'll just suck it up and consider it a lesson learned. You get what you pay for, I know...

yeah if it's that far it is not worth the drive. Sorry!!!
