LoL...I was just coming to post about those! I got two. Thank God it's not January!
ETA: Oh...be careful with your shipping. Every time I put my zip code in, it entered it into the zip code field AND the bundle quantity. I was checking shipping, and suddenly I had a $315,000 cart! I finally had to give up and not estimate shipping...just go straight to check out and it was fine.

I picked one up, too! I love the $5 blooper bundles, and shipping is super reasonable.

What can one expect in these bundles? I've only ordered once and it was a particular stamp set.

leeny they usually come with 10-13 items. Usually a a part of each "item" is missing/broken/unusable, but the rest is fine. For example, a sticker sheet might have a bent corner so two or three stickers are unusable, but the rest of the sheet is fine.

I just ordered 4. I have a 10% off code from one of those automatic emails along the lines of 'forget something? here's a coupon code to complete your purchase' that has worked for 2 years now. If not for that, shipping would have just been too much!! More than 2 always makes shipping priority and usually they can't promise so many unique bags. 6 this time is quite impressive...even if it can't be promised the entire sale.

I have ordered and loved them! But I'm putting my fingers in my ears this time...I can't hear you! No buying for me!

I kind of like buying past kits at cheap prices, more than I like the blooper bundles. I don't really care for their stickers or anything cork-related so much.

Not for me (although I have bought them in the past). I'll be away for 6 weeks over Christmas so have to be realistic about what I'm buying at the moment. I have plenty of stuff to use up for now.

I've ordered these before and I was happy with them, so two more are on their way to my house soon.  |

Did I misread it? I thought at first it said 6 unique bundles...now it says 6 unique bags. Was this an update or did I just set myself up for disappointment? I know it said there would be updates...but I thought they sold out too fast for that to be necessary.

But I do remember something about six different somethings. I know--not very helpful. I guess we'll find out. |

I think that this means that even though there are 6 unique bundles, some of the items in those bundles might be duplicates. I ordered two bundles earlier this year and got two different bundles. But within the bundles, I got duplicates of two of the items. Does that make sense? |

*sigh* I got my 2 blooper bags from Freckled Fawn today, but I think I got the bloober-blooper bags. The little blurb on the website has 10-13 items. I got 2 bags, pic below. They sent me two empty plastic bags with nothing in them (one in each blooper bundle). And the only way I got 10 items is if each of the 3 project life cards is their own individual item. I may email and ask them if there was supposed to be something IN the little clear bags? I thought maybe those 2 flowers came out of one, but neither bag is ripped or has an open edge. They're sealed empty bags!  Anyone else get theirs? |

I really hope they weren't counting those project life cards individually, moraie. That would be rude! |

I really hope they weren't counting those project life cards individually, moraie . That would be rude! Well, it says "approximately" 10-13 items, so if it was like 8-9, I guess that's approximate, but only have 7 in one was a little disappointing, and those empty bags baffle me! |

Can you please email me directly (doe@freckledfawn.com). I have no idea why you would be sent EMPTY BAGS!! I'm so sorry. I will have to check with the team to see what happened but I will make this right for you. Xoxo, Doe |

Does it shock (not in a bad way) anyone else that companies show up here unsolicited? I think of myself at the bottom of the food chain and that my lowly opinion means nothing to most businesses, so when they address us here when we share our opinions (good, bad, sometimes just perplexed about something and seeking clarification) it stuns me. In a good way, I guess. Maybe I just don't realize how big the boards here are in the scrappy community since most of the active traffic seems to go to the NSBR board. I am probably one of the few that spends probably 10x more time here than over on NSBR.

I am probably one of the few that spends probably 10x more time here than over on NSBR. I read as many scrapbook/craft forums as I can. It's an important part of my job to feel out my customers' wants, needs, concerns, etc.; reading public forums is an organic way for me to get a feel for the consumers in the industry. I watch what everyone says they want or listen to specific things that are complained about and mold our business and customer service decisions off the information I have gathered from as many sources as I can acquire. No consumer is at the bottom of the food chain. You all matter. Your opinions matter. I don't always comment on all the boards I read but I am always listening to you guys! Richard and I didn't want to loose that small company feel as we expanded and grew and the key to that is not losing contact with our customers. Which is why I am here, reading, and stressing out that one of my customers was sent empty bags!!!!! AHHH. |

I received my blooper bag and I am very happy with it. I received three of those cards but counted them as one. I received 10 items as stated plus the pouch.
I can't wait for the next blooper bag.

I can't tell you how much I appreciate your taking the time to personally reply and remedy the oops. We had a fun night with the empty bags, actually. I posted, then ran out the door to do some things with my kids. I showed them my cool new stuff from the bloopers, including the empty mystery bags. They each took one and spent all night theorizing what amazing stuff was in each bag that I missed out on. It's fairly interesting to hear what they thought I'd love to have in those bags, and it's down-right impressive to hear what they think would FIT in those little bags. Another hour or two, and one of them might have contained a Porsche! I'll pop over and mail you now, and again, my thanks.  |

I was an original subscriber to the Oh Deer Me kit. I finally had to quit because I'm drowning in embellishments. Always loved their quality and never had a CS issue.

I was also a subscriber and had to quit only because I wasn't scrapbooking. I love their kits, their sales, quality and their customer service. I even love those little bags, I plan on using them some how for 4-H gifts for the kids |

They are handy little things. |
