who went to michael's 70% off sale?

[Grumpy's Gal]

do tell - what did you get?

 

[Faerie]

Nothing because BOTH of my Mike's has enough room to just add Martha's stuff so they had almost NOTHING on clearence

 

[Yzerbear19]

Neither Michaels near me had anything. I was a bit sad because I wanted some really good deals, but nothing. Doesn't even look like they are going to replace any of their open stock paper, which is a huge disappointment.

I went to the really nice big Michael's and they had nothing!

 

[vanyel]

Nothing on sale at mine but they've added several aisles to the scrapbooking section and there's one empty right now, the first aisle.

it was a joke here

That is what I figured would happen I am so glad that Hobby Lobby just opened here!! Even though they just opened, they have a huge WALL full of scrapbook clearance. I love that!!!

Well I am glad I didn't stop there today. DS1 needed to nap and I was bummed. It doesn't seem like I missed anything.

Nothing at the M's near me (Liberty, MO) either....unless I missed it all together. M's is slowly working to the top of my list...list of stores I only shop at when necessary.

Actually, not to be a gloater (is that a word??) or anything, but my Mike's had a lot of stuff on clearance. Sizzix dies, tons of stickers, paper, embellishments. I got a lot of stuff for not a lot of money! I was very proud of my restraint.

My MIcheals didnt have much at all. The paper was just plopped into a bin so it all was pretty trashed and the prices were not that good.

I did find some refills for my 12X15 album for a $1 each reg. 9.99 That was THE only deal in the whole bin.

I did buy some solid cardstock that was on sale for 6 for .96 - like I really need more paper

I felt pretty lucky at mine. I got some great paper for some upcoming swaps at .25. There was also some post bound albums...really nice...for $9 that I'm going to use for the next CJ. They were also dumping the Christmas cardstock for $1.00, which I can use for my card classes...So, I felt I did good. Plus I got employee discount off everything, and saved about $9 with that...like getting that album for free...

The only thing I got were the refills for the Sandylion Disney albums for $3. I bought 7, they had about 7 more and I thought about just buying them all, but I was trying to be good, and I only have 2 of those albums. I did take them home and put 3 packages worth in one of them right away, I had the pages done, but no protectors.

I went back yesterday, and our Michaels FINALLY started the reset, so now the whole scrapping section is ripped up and basically not even on the floor, so I couldn't find anything. They had a couple baskets out front and some of the 25 cent sheets, but it was basically a disaster area.

AWM, did you see this????? sizzix's on clearance!!!!!!!!

Forgot to post that as I suspected, my Mike's had nothing. The few things they had "clearanced" were pitiful - stickers marked down 20-30%, specialty papers/vellum/overlays marked from $1.49 to $1. You know, I could get better deals than that on a regular sale. The new Hobby Lobby down the street from Mike's has definitely stolen my business, even if Mike's has gotten a few new items (Heidi Swapp ghost letters and shapes, Martha stuff (not interested!), etc).

I would have to agree, Michael's didn't have much here either. I think it was a great promotional idea to get us in the store to see what was going on. I was impressed with the makeover. Michael's has one of our largest selections to choose from and that's not always saying much. I went this evening and was quite pleased and left with a bag full.
