Okay, so who is picking one of these up Friday, May 5th? (I would add a picture from the email, but I can't. They are $49.50 and shipping is US is $12.50, Canadian $45, and International $60 a box. That shipping sounds insane!)

I still have my last two Bella Blvd warehouse boxes completely untouched so I'll be skipping this one. It's pretty stuff, but I can never figure out how to fit it into my style.  |

A little too pricy for my taste once you add the shipping.

There are some good looking things in there but I have a lot of the things and while more would usually not bother me (it's great stuff that I'd use) since I have to really count my pennies now, I'm leaning towards passing on this one. It will be hard, though...I've been looking forward to this sale and the Spring sale from Elle's Studio since pretty much right after Black Friday, lol.

Ohhhhh that is so tempting but one, I have been clearing out my stuff and two, that international shipping is a killer. I did get the last of the Sasafrass Lass boxes many moons ago and yes it is worth it once you add up how much retail the amount of products you receive is worth on Australian shelves but it is a big chunk of change to spend of products that you are unsure if you will use.

I am worried that it will have repeat items from the last box, I think that and the price is holding me back this time. Although, I am a sucker for a mystery box..

Not when international shipping is $60.

I do like Bella Blvd, but I'm afraid I'd get too much of their illustrated faith lines (I think that's the name). Their lines tend to be theme specific, which I do not mind at all. I just like to have more control in picking the right theme. Although there are some good B side papers....  |

I just like to have more control in picking the right theme. Although there are some good B side papers.... I don't think their faith lines would be included...if so, it would be things like the enamel hearts that are pretty universal. I'd think if they did a box that featured that part of their business that it would be a box specific to that. The sneaks don't show anything from it, either. I would normally have the same concerns...I have no desire or need for anything religious in my life. |

International shipping more than doubles the price
Too much for me for a mystery box

I did enjoy the BB box I bought a few years ago, but I am trying to use up a chunk of my stash, so I am skipping this one. |

I'm toying with picking it up. It's been quite a few years since I got their warehouse box. I may wait and see how much I end up spending that weekend when I actually get to visit a scrapbook store in person.

I passed. I don't think I've used one thing from my last box.

I passed. I don't think I've used one thing from my last box. Under normal circumstances that wouldn't mean anything to me...but trying to adjust to making more reasonable purchases has it's drawbacks...trying to be reasonable and rational is ZERO FUN. I really want to buy one and have planned on it for ages, but I've gotten most of the papers on sale. If there were sneaks of the ephemera, I might be thinking about it less, but most of the things I don't own are the acetate sheets, chipboards and the smaller alpha sticker sheets and that's not worth $62 in money I could spend on things that I know I'll love. |

They are saying the boxes are different from past boxes.
"The contents of 2017’s Warehouse Box are different from previous Warehouse Box sales, containing a less than 10% overlap from 2014, 2015 and 2016."
