I want a Picturemate but I have a perfectly good Selphy. I would also love a wide format printer! I really don't want to make you want this more ... but... I had a Selphy. I honestly used it only about ½ dozen times. I didn't like it for two reasons: 1. The prints weren't a true 4x6 and 2. I'm not a glossy print fan. I ended up selling it and bought the PictureMate. I LOVE IT! It prints as large as 5x7 and I can use whatever photo paper I want! The quality of the prints are spectacular-and I use it all the time. I know it's expensive to buy and I know the cost per print is more than say Costco (which is where I still print if I don't need something right away) but it seriously has been a really great investment for me and I honestly don't hesitate to recommend it highly! It's certainly not a "must have" but it sure is a nice little piece of equipment to have! |

I still really want to stock up on WRMK 6x12 faux leather albums and page protectors now that I've unearthed a stock of them in a scrapbook store but I'm holding off because I'd rather live the good life on our weekend trips this autumn and winter. We're going back to Venice, Milan and Florence during the cold months. I'd rather upgrade our hotel to something extra luxurious for a night or two than buy more scrapbook stuff. Total hedonist like that... C'est la vie. I have so much time for this post. I have big issues with people who choose to spend their money on memory keeping supplies rather than getting out there and making memories. I've read or heard of people saying they can't afford to go on holiday but they're dropping $100+ a month on supplies. Live life, document it later!! Supplies are not a priority. Living is. I really want a big shot, or I really like the idea of owning one, I just know I won't use it. I only do PL so I can't see how I would use it. Would just be cool to own one! |

I forgot one! I also want a sewing machine. I have a nice one, but it has lived with my parents, who live across the country, since I moved a lot in my 20s due to school and work. Now that I'm more settled, I want to get it back, but I think I'd have to drive there and get it. Which is a day and a half trip 😬 It's so heavy, I doubt I could carry it on.
But regardless, I now keep eyeing sewing machines to buy...not that I need one when I have a great one technically in my possession!

Laser printer - for home office and foiling - but I want to keep a photo printer too and don't have room for two.

I want an electronic cutter but haven't bought one for 2 reasons... cost and I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to figure it out! The Silhouette took me very little time to figure out. My Cricut took much longer. There are so many videos out on YouTube that make it so much easier. |

It's certainly not a "must have" but it sure is a nice little piece of equipment to have! I've decided that after I use up all my Selphy supplies, I am going to go ahead and get an Epson 400. Maybe by then there will be an Epson 500.  I do like matte prints better. |

The newest Explore electronic cutter. I haven't bought it because their software reportedly still stinks and still requires online use. Also, I asked questions about it on another thread that have mostly gone unanswered. I could probably find out the answers to my questions on my own, but that takes time, and I am still busy unpacking from our move, so this is probably not the best time to buy it. I probably will find it for a better price on Black Friday, anyway. Check the Cricut thread. I just wrote a book for you.  Don't be afraid to ask me more. I still REALLY want the Brother Scan n Cut but haven't bought it because- -I already own two die cutters. -I don't want to go down the multiple die cutter rabbit hole again. -Proprietary blade system -I really love to fussy cut A kit club- I am worried they will send me something I am not into. |

Big Shot type machine just so I might use my sizzix dies but I haven't bought one because I feel like I won't use it. Me too. I have an older cricut but just recently accidentally bought a die when I bought some planner stamps. Now I want a sizzix or cuttlebug. FOR ONE DIE! I have a sickness......lol. |

It's not like you meant to do it on purpose, right? It just sort of happened and now you need a Big Shot or Cuttlebug or something. There was no malice involved. It was just an accident really.  |

I mean I have a Big Kick, Trusty Old Red Sizzix AND a Grand Caliber. You know how it happens. You are in Michaels, you have a 50% off coupon. There it is there on the shelf LOOKING at you and it goes home with you. It really is out of your control.
Don't get me started on saving money. That's a lecture for another day (bargain=must buy=saving money) win-win all around.

Big Shot type machine just so I might use my sizzix dies but I haven't bought one because I feel like I won't use it. You just might surprise yourself. I bought one a while back when there was a rare 50% off all Sizzix coupon for Michael's. I hemmed and hawed and waited until the last day of the sale to come down off the fence and decide to get one, and then I had to go to three stores before I finally found one in stock. I have THREE electronic cutters (Pazzles Pro, Pazzles Inspiration, Silver Bullet) and I know how to do just about anything I could ever want to do with all of them. I know the software inside out and upside down. But my Big Kick still gets used way, way, way more than I ever imagined I would use it. There are so many times when it's just faster and easier using it than messing around with the other cutters, and it's more portable for taking to crops when I scrap away from home. Plus there are times when I want to cut something that I know won't cut well with an e-cutter, but will cut perfect with a manual die. And LOL, I keep finding different Sizzix and thin dies super cheap at the scrapbook/craft supply garage sales I go to! I just bought a bunch of Stampin' Up exclusive ones a couple weeks ago for something like $2-5 each and I just couldn't resist. |

I really want the new Heidi Swapp Cricut cartridge. A LOT! Me too! I can't decide if I should get the cartridge or the digital set. |

A Precision Press/MISTI/Stampaholic. First reason is, I can't decide if I'll use it enough. Second, I'm pretty frugal so I made my own. Works fine. Third reason, I can't decide on which model. This is just like me! My son made mine with duct tape. It's works great for my needs, but I would like a nice one. But then I think I could spend more wisely since I stamp very little. |
