Massachusetts Scrappers.....

Isn't Right at Home AMAZING!!! I've decided that the few times a year we hit the Wrentham Outlets I'm going to make a side trip to Right at Home, too!!! We also go to Providence a lot for shows at the PPAC, so I can stop on the way back from there, too. I just can't believe what a great store it is...especially with only Michael's and AC Moore in this area...people within shouting distance of LSS's are SO LUCKY!!!

And on the subject of Lighthouse...the last time we were up there, about a year ago, the owner was just so unpleasant that I decided then and there to find another place...or just continue to shop on-line...I don't know what's up with her, but it was kind of a disappointment, especially since it's over an hour's drive to get up there.

Keep a lookout -
Rumor has it was may have up to THREE choices in the Leominster area!

I know for a fact that
a friend of mine is looking for a LARGE location to open a store in Leominster - they have GREAT ideas and just went to an expo in Chicago (?I think it was Chicago?) - they are dissapointed that it will take a while to organize and open. Hopefully by Septemberish is their goal.

Pages To Remember is rumored to be reopening in Westminster - and another girl is rumored to be looking for a location for a new store!

Hope this helps ya -
Also the KISS event in malborough looks like it will have an 'faire' for purchasing products - if you don't attend the crop you can still go shopping for the day!

Sorry it took so long to get back. I prefer Amandalinz even though it is 40 minutes away versus 15 minutes. They have a lot more interesting things. And they are very helpful. The sales person at Lighthouse (ran into her both in Nashua and Salem) is borderline rude. If you do go to Amandalintz, let them put you on their email list. They send you coupons etc. For your birthday you get 25% off one item. So, I know have the Xlarge cropper tote! They have also set things aside for me to pick up.

I tried one last time to go to Lighthouse. I was kind of hoping that the owner would lighten up a bit and be more friendly. Guess what? She was still as rude as she was before. I decided I won't go in again. She probably figures she doesn't need to be nice because she has the only scrap store around and people have to go in.

Aunties and WeloveMickey,

Actually I do frequent Amandalinz to often actually. I have never gone to the lighthouse and that is why I asked for the comparision. Thanks for the info now I won't bother with the lighthouse.

I really liked the Right at Home in Attleboro. Even though it's a very far ride. They had more stuff than Amandalinz and are more friendly. I find Amandalinz not all that friendly sometimes.


Were you there on National Scrapbook Day? I probably saw you there if you were there in the morning.
