There is usually a higher number of promised unique items per grab bag. Is it strange that I'm complaining that I couldn't give her more of my money? LoL!!!

That was a fun little sale! I bought 5 different sets of journaling/PL cards, a stamp set and a scrapbook grab bag and the shipping was only $3.93!

I really debated over getting a scrapbook grab bag, but decided on 2 stamp grab bags instead, a couple of the sale items, and some acrylic and puffy stars (regular price) I've been wanting forever.

I got a nice variety of items as I don't sub and have just bought here and there in the past. Excited for mystery kits and a couple of grab bags - it's been awhile since I've bought any and I can't go wrong since I love her designs. I think I will go back and get cut files since a lot of those would be very useful.

I purchased a few grab bags also. I've never purchased anything from Elle's Studio so everything will be new to me. Thanks for enabling!

That was a fun little sale! I bought 5 different sets of journaling/PL cards, a stamp set and a scrapbook grab bag and the shipping was only $3.93! I've been holding onto a $10 coupon I got from an IG shout out win for this. So I got free shipping plus another 25 cents off. I knew this sale was coming and held onto it for that specifically. I was also hoping for some 12x12 $5 paper packs, so I'm kind of sad there weren't any of those, either. I got max on all of the grab bags as per usual, but 2 of the SB one just because I figured a couple of duplicates wouldn't be the end of the world...last time she only promised 1 unique for a sticker grab bag, only one or two were repeated out of 8-10, so I can deal with that. I also nabbed a few of the cut aparts from Sunny Days that I either didn't have or didn't have duplicates of and a cut file with hearts that I've been wanting but didn't think to buy until after her black friday sale. I want to use it to make my own die cut heart ephemera pieces...I love the shapes of the ones she uses and wanted to have a digital copy so I could make a ton to keep on hand. |

I ordered a scrapbook grab bag, a bits and pieces grab bag, and a journal card set and some puffy stickers that were on sale. Shipping to Canada was reasonable-$9.50. I'm looking forward to what I get. I only have a couple of Elle's studio things and they are quite old so what I get should all be new to me.

My order should be here on Thursday! My primary reason for shopping her sales right away is for early shipping! 5-10 minutes later can mean you are waiting an extra couple of days for shipping notices because she's a mostly one woman show. I cannot wait!

I received my goodies today. I managed to not only duplicate 5 of the 6 stamps in my 2 grab bags, but the 6th was a TRIPLICATE. I guess I should pull back a bit on buying stamps or just not buy as many grab bags in the future...but it was a risk I knew I was taking. I usually just hope for half being new to me...maybe by November there will be some more that I didn't buy to take the chance again. I am otherwise very happy with my order. The last Scrapbook Grab Bag was quite the disappointment (not enough variety and just wasn't worth the cost in my opinion...especially since adding one to your cart made shipping priority almost right off the bat), but I took her at her word (she mentioned somewhere that these ones were the best over) and bought 2. Even though she promised only one unique bag, I ordered 2 and only had one item duplicated (the teal grid cards) and they were jam packed with stuff. Very very very happy with this particular scrapbook bag. I also think I could have ordered more than the minimum on the tags and gotten more variety with minimal risk to duplicates, too...my only logic being that I received some of the monthly 4x6 cards in each bag and didn't end up with the full year. Mystery kits are always duplicates for me because I subscribe to her kits, but the 2 I received were 2 of my favorites (Autumnal kits usually end up being my favorites from any company and both of these ones were from last fall). As usual, I wish I ordered more because I love what I ended up with. I am very pleased and now have to learn some patience to get myself through to November.  |

I'd love to see photos of the grab bags and mystery kits. I won't get mine for a while since I'll be on vacay next week when it arrives.

Thanks to both of you for posting pictures! They look very good. I am looking forward to my order but it will likely take a little while to arrive in Canada.

scrapaddict702 I would love to buy the read stamps off of you if you are interested in selling. I was hoping to get them in my grab bag but didnt  I was pretty pleased with my other things though, I definitely feel like I got my moneys worth from these!

I'm glad I didn't do a grab bag of stamps as I have most of the ones you got. I ordered the read stamp and a few other things and they should be here tomorrow.
