Just returned from Michael's (Thanksgiving Evening)

[MsDisney23]

So I got to Michael's at 4:00pm for their 5:00pm opening, not a soul was to found except me. It was such a nice day, that I decided to get out of my SUV and take a short walk. I stayed close to the store, wow I'm glad I did. Within no time at all, peopel started to drive up. I decided to go ahead and go the store, making me first in line.

Within 10 minutes, there were over 50 women in line. You could hear everyone talking about the Cricut.. As soon as the door opened there was a mad rush for the Cricut isle, woman were grabbing anything and everything. Um, yes me too.. I did every cart that I was after. I think all of the women did. they did have a lot to chose from.

With that my BF shoppng is done.. I get to sleep in tomorrow. Plus they are calling for a rainy cold windy day here.

We arrived at our M's at 4:45, I was the first in line too! I was trying to stage a coop to rush the doors early but BAMB and MomK wouldn't let me. They're no fun.

When M's was about to open the door, they asked if anyone was there for the Gypsy, no one was. They seemed surprised no one was coming for the sale of the Gypsy and the bonus being offered with it.

I did get everything I wanted and then some.

I was with BAMB, MomK and Lisa. Got no cricut carts. Figured with the $100 I had on cricut.com from my gypsy purchase no sense in getting any.

I did get 5 configurations of the jetmax (I think that is what they are called) cubes. I was only going to get 4, but then Lisa convinced me I needed the 5th one. Probably a good thing since they were 55% off. Didn't get to use the 30% since it was a bonus deal, but still a great deal. Can't wait to put them together and get organized.

 

[Lisa]

Those cubes aren't set up and storing stuff yet?!

 

[dlbwright]

Nope. Watching Up. Somebody wants 'hold me'. She is hanging on pretty tight. Don't think I am going to be able to do anything, except sit with her and play on the puter.

 

[dlbwright]

Holy crow! Just checked over at cricut.com and carts are $36. I wanted dinosaur the other day and it was $64. Now I can get 2 carts instead of 1. Thank you gypsy! (going to also get a few cuttebug folders)

 

[BernardandMissBianca]

wait they wouldn't let you use the coupon?? that stinks!!

Kitty, I'm glad you were able to get what you wanted! I was worried when you said mad rush, I don't want you to get bumped around. Glad the weather was nice, it was nice here too.

There was no real mad rush this year but I think it was because they changed the times from last year. There were a lot of people there when we were leaving.

I picked up:
Winter Wonderland
Pagoda
and From My Kitchen

I opted to put back Designers Calendar and Old West. I will get those later.

DH asked how much I spent and then he said Happy Birthday! So I don't have to put any under the tree. So who knows, maybe I'll get a few more from Santa!

 

[BernardandMissBianca]

They're no fun.

I am NOT getting black listed from Turkey Day sales, thank you very much. Besides the Kid wasn't there and neither was the chick in PJ's and rollers. Who were we supposed to blame the flatulence noises on?????

Peep, I hope Miss K feels better soon. I am sure only cuddling with Mom will make her feel better.

 

[BernardandMissBianca]

Oh not Princess Blink, your neighbor kid. We can blame her, she a teenager.

But yes, Princess Blink heard my voice as was like MOMMY!!! You're home!!! and gave me a hug like I'd been of to war or something. She was so cute!! DH said she cried herself to sleep after I left.

Glad you got what you wanted.. I picked up all of the Disney carts.. Keep in mind I am still very new to scrapbooking. Now about being bumped around that is the last thing that I need. I have an icisional hernia that will need a surgical repair, they will do it in about two months, as they have to switch my anti-rejection meds around. So I was very happy to get to go to Michael's and do some shopping!

 

[dlbwright]

Just got Dino tracks, the snowflake and snowman limited edition winter carts, 4 A2 cuttlebug folders and replacement blades for 94 cents! and no shipping. Guess it was a black Friday sale on cricut.com Thank you Miss Gypsy! I wanted to get From my kitchen but it was out of stock. Maybe Js will have it on Saturday!

BAMB, they would not let me use the coupon because it was one of the bonus buys and it said you could not use a coupon on it. Not a big deal. Still got a GREAT deal on those.

And peep, I did find my card in my OTHER jacket pocket! Oye Vey!

 

[BernardandMissBianca]

I got the last Kitchen one at M's tonight. Very cute stuff and will be great for 50's Prime Time!!!!

how did you get all that stuff for less then a buck???

 

[Lisa]

Thank goodness you found it, I was worried for you.

 

[PrincessNancy96]

Glad to hear all of you had very successful shopping sprees!!!!

Not fun about the hernia but I'm glad they are at least waiting until after the holidays to do it. Why switch the meds? The ones you are taking are working right?
So when do you start staying home or has that already started?

 

[BernardandMissBianca]

Glad to hear all of you had very successful shopping sprees!!!!

We missed you!!! But you held out well for Disney!!! Mickey will be very proud of you!

 

[PrincessNancy96]

I thought about calling about 5:25pm...but decided in the best interest of our friendship, I better let you shop first!

 

[BernardandMissBianca]

Oh, heck I was done by 5:15. MomK on the other had bought all kinds of stuff for crafts at school. She took forever! LOL

 

[PrincessNancy96]

LOL! You were on a mission... MomK was saving money!
