Tuesday Morning Store Story

LOL.. I have a little story about Tuesday Morning.  The Tuesday Morning I used to go to was pretty small, like all the ones I have been to in the past... I would say about the size a 1/4 of a Walgreens.. maybe 1/2.. hard to tell.. but they are small.  Or maybe like the size of two Sally's Beauty stores.. you know those teeny tiny locations... anyways, you get the drift.  The amount of scrapbook stuff was maybe at best some paper 12x12, some of the 6x6 paper pads, one hook of them, some misc stuff strewn here or there.  

So I see that there is a new TM being put in a strip mall on a corner location (nice location) and it's big.. lots of windows.. just from driving by watching the 'opening soon' sign out over the store.. I watch for like 2 months.. taking forever... The other day I see it is open.. OMG... that place was HUGE.. Windows, lots of light, lots of nice sized isles (is that spelled right? looks funny to me). Not cramped together where only one person can fit.  I only had like 15 minutes at best to shop... The scrapbook section is HUGE and it's combined with sewing stuff and other arts.  TONS of papers, paper pads, embellishments, markers, buttons, you name it... I went through VERY fast and picked up the following:

We R Memory Keepers: Hello Life by Teresa Collins (grey, yellow and peachy colors): 12x12 page kit... 3.99
We R Memory Keepers: Page Protectors 10 pack for 1.99
K&Company Smashbook Pad for Family for .49
K&Company Smashbook Pockets, looks like a travel version, (a bike, a piece of luggage, and another one, looks like stripes) .79
Firefly ephemera college kit (110 pieces) looks like old fashion items like bikes, letters, boards rulers, quotes.. 3.99
Doddlebug Paper Frills boarders for .99
Jolee's Dimensional Stickers of Washington DC or use for 4th of July.. VERY sparkly... .99
Paper House (like Jolee's) of a HUGE 3D Haunted House for 1.49  (I really love this one.. and the 4th of July one)
Thickers, pink, kinda foamy 1.99
Thickers, Dear Lizzy, also pink 1.99
Remarks letter stickers, 8 pages (same kind of packaging as Thickers) 2.99 (there are tons of repeats.. multi color, greens, pinks, yellows, different shades)

My old TM didn't have ANY of this stuff.... I wish I had more time (or better I didn't)... but now I "get" the TM threads!!  I just couldn't understand it!! LOL

So for a little over 21.00 I think I did decent. And happy with it all..
