I can't find where in the check out process to use a promo code. Is it just me? I gotta be doing this wrong...

Any particular classes you’re looking at anniefb or mom? No, not really. I haven’t had any of their classes in probably a year so I’m sure I can find something new!

So I did it, I finally cancelled my final sub with studio calico. I cancelled the scrapbook sub over a year ago because of all the sales, I could get it cheaper without subbing so it was dumb to sub, but I kept my documenter kit and I appreciated the little benefits of being a subber and gold status. Even with everything I was willing to stick with them, but I just can't get over the poor quality of the cards. So I cancelled...
I used the skip function to skip January first to make sure I'd be okay missing it and I was actually super happy after reveal that I didn't get it and I got plenty of other stuff this month and I have so many supplies and the quality of the cards are just so bad I can't bring myself to really use them anyways... I will miss it though. I'm just telling myself though, if I do miss it I will wait until the next sale and pick up everything I've missed lol.

I can't see how they have many subscribers left considering nothing has sold out AND now all of the kit components are available separately. crazy.

It took me ages to take the plunge to cancel but I’ve never regretted it. I love picking up the kits cheap to boost my stash but I’d never pay full price for one again. I have not missed not being subbed one bit. Must be coming up to 12 months ago that I cancelled now too. You made the right decision!

Posted on the sale thread but am putting this here too for posterity.
I'm an idiot.
I got my box. No planner and no communication. I did get the refills. Why would I want the refills if I didn't get the planner? I ordered that planner early on the first day. It was up several days after I bought it. In addition to not getting it, I also got zero communication about it.
I requested a return label and a full refund. They can have the whole box back.
It's my own fault. I'm an idiot- but rest assured, I won't fall for it again.

SaveSaveI ran out of characters in my email, but when I get a response I will tell them I will dispute the charge with my credit card. If they filled any behind me (which they must have done because I ordered very early on day one) then they knowingly took my money without fulfilling their part of the bargain. Sounds like fraud.

I got the black one in my order, but I also have the grey one that I'm currently using. I could keep the inserts and use the grey one next year, if you want me to mail you the black one?

If anyone can now figure out a way to download the new dash video format from BPC please post it here. I used to use Firefox Video Download Helper but it doesn't seem to work anymore. When I download the videos as .mp4 I can't play them back and if I try and convert them to .mov format I get the video but no audio. At least I'm able to save the lessons but I like to be able to save a few videos to look back on as well.

anniefb I use a browser called Torch. There are two ways to download in it. Clicking the blue arrow pointing down button which is in the tool bar works for most videos but for those that don't there's another (more convoluted) way. I don't have an active subscription there so I've tested this on one of the free classes (Learn Something Every Day) and it works. Find the video you want to download, right click on it and then click on View frame source. It should open up another window with a whole lot of seemingly random text. CTRL F and search for mp4What you're looking for is a string like this (usually after the first mention of mp4 but it was after the second mention on the example I used): video/mp4","fps":29,"url":" https:// fpdl.vimeocdn.com/vimeo-prod-skyfire-std-us/01/858/9/229294480/808642058.mp4?token=1515803634-0x5b701b56327832d038b0c4bbe5c86a780a1f027a","cdn":"fastly","quality":"360p","id":80864 You want to copy the bit I've highlighted in bold and italics. Paste this into your address bar and it should open up another window which just plays the video. You can then click on the blue downward pointing arrow in your toolbar to download (it is animated to help you find it). I hope someone has an easier way but I've found this method works for most things (including all the vimeo videos) when I can't get them any other way.

Anyone know about a free month trial with Big Picture Classes? I guess there is a code in SC subscribers boxes. BPC1MONTH 31 days of free access. Cancel or it’s $9.95 a month. Got it in my “free” Doc kit. Does this work if you've done a trial/paid for classes at BPC before? Do I need to pretend to be someone new to use it?

Do I need to pretend to be someone new to use it? I just used it with my existing sign in and it worked fine. Just use the free trial button and near the end of the process you get the option to add the code which extends the trial.

The photos of presenting January 2018 Scrapbooking SC Kit did not do it justice. It is really a nice kit. I love the quality of the paper as always.

Am I weird for only looking at Gluestickgirl's stuff in the gallery? I rarely visit SC, but wanted to double check my order to make sure I received everything. Whenever I go to the SC website, I make a point to peruse GSG layouts in the gallery. She lives in my neighborhood and I find it fascinating to see what places she scraps that I know. I feel so stalker-ish, but it's not like I go knock on her door or anything.

She posted a picture of a house on my street corner which clued me in that we are neighbors. Love living in Dundee and having so much within walking distance.

After 3.5 years I felt a fool to keep paying full price when everyone else was paying next to nothing for the kits. I agree on the quality, nothing like how it used to be. I've cancelled Cocoa Daisy after eighteen months as well. The style seemed to be changing into something I didn't like. I'm trying out Citrus Twist and Ali's monthly stories and will see how that goes.

I too cancelled my subscription after many years of being very loyal. I tried not to let all these sales bother me, that was one of the reasons but I mostly cancelled due to the poor customer service (being gold tier really means nothing to them) and I am sick of pink having to be in 99% of every single kit. And what good do their surveys do- nothing they never change they could care less about feedback.

Just read that llp is going to be designing for kp. I don't love the sneaks for llps stamp with kp, but she's one of my favorite designers so I'm glad I can pick up her designs without giving SC any cash!
