What would you buy? I have a digital Visa gift card to spend but it has to be online. I already have a Big Kick, a Cinch and other big tools. I like clear stamps, thin dies, Doodlebug type stuff. Go!

I would probably shop somewhere that has a wide variety instead of a company's site to save on shipping. Ellen Hutson, Simon Says Stamp, Butterfly Reflections, etc. I have only shopped at SSS; it was a good experience but they don't ship very quickly.

What a great 'problem' to have.  I'd go to SSS for stamps and Scrapbook.com for everything else. I might also check to see if any of the kit clubs had a good sale. Have fun shopping!! |

What a fun problem to have! If you don't have set 2 of the oxide inks I highly recommend them. The colors are so bright. I'd try some of the Altenew Crisp inks that anniefb loves. A whole ream of Neenah cardstock. |

If you didn't already have them I would say distress oxide inks. Then Tim Holtz Halloween stuff. Those were my last purchases. It really depends what you use. If your going to do December daily I think that release is coming up on ali Edwards site. I think it's soon.

OMG, when I'm off my freeze I'm buying: a whole lot of The Ton stamps, some of the new Distress Oxide Inks, and I would love to pick up a few Hip Kit Club kits. I could think of many more things to buy, but that's where I'd start.

I would go to town on AliExpress and photo printing. Maybe some site to store orders at Joann and/or Michael's to avoid shipping.

I would get on Amazon and buy a bunch of things on there - they have everything from albums and page protectors to kits and stickers.

These are all great ideas! I'll have to check out the Distress Oxide inks since that's something I don't have any of at all and would probably use. I'll have to check out some of the other stamp/die companies mentioned too. I really love Halloween and Christmas stuff but I already have soooo much of that and I never seem to use much of it in spite of my best intentions. My kid always picks oddball things to be for Halloween that don't mesh with typical Halloween supplies and Christmastime is always so busy that I'm four years behind on December Daily albums even though I've taken hundreds of pics and even wrote down journaling for a few of those years, LOL. The photo printing idea is another great one. I could use some of the money to buy paper packs for my Selphy so I can print at home on the fly. Another thing I just thought of would be to buy some of the Doodlebug digital cutting files for some of the more recent lines. That would be something I could use in lots of ways over a long time, and I'd own them forever so it wouldn't be something that would get used up.  |

I love the idea of going bananas on Aliexpress!
Or... you could buy a whole set of inks - Distress Oxide, Altenew, or CTMH/SU if that's your color palette.
I might buy a bunch of word dies or frames that I really liked but couldn't ordinarily justify.
You might take a look at Ebay to see if there's a big lot of something (papers? embellishments?) that you'd enjoy.
I know - check out the Prima warehouse box! It's about $100.

The Elizabeth Crafts stamps and matching dies are really cool. I don't have an extra $125 to spend, and I already have a collection of ECD dies, but now I want to collect a bunch more of them. |

As well as the Altenew inks, I love Altenew stamps and dies - also just getting in to Lawn Fawn to make cards for my niece. I'd go somewhere with a good range of things like SSS or Ellen Hutson. Have fun!

Some of Shimelle's classes. A couple of older Project Life sets that aren't in stores any more (I love the colors in Clementine). A bunch of stuff from AliExpress.

I would stock up on the stuff that you need but isn't fun to buy; albums, page protectors, printer ink, photo paper, instax film etc. Those are the things I buy when I have extra money as I need them and can't scrap without them.
It's a pain when you're low on cash and need any of those items.

It's a pain when you're low on cash and need any of those items. I have a bunch of that stuff on hand already, so this is purely "fun money" LOL. I did a survey and this was the payoff, so I'm determined to spend it on something fun!  |

I would definitely go buy albums. And enamel dots. Can you ever go wrong with enamel dots?! I'd get a nesting die set. For me it would be hexagons. If you use lots of small die cuts (like if you die cut alphas), I would get an Xyron X and refills. They make adhering those little letters so easy. Have fun shopping! |

Thanks for all the great suggestions!
Someone mentioned the HP Sprocket pocket photo printer on another thread. I remember looking at that on Amazon a while back and thinking, "huh..." so maybe I should take another look at that. I don't know how much I would actually use it, but it would be fun to have if I wouldn't have problems with only using it sporadically. I'm leaning toward the Distress ink pads since so many people have mentioned those and I know I'd use them.

I was going to suggest the distress oxides, but I it's already been discussed. I'd get the reinkers too

I'd buy some stamps and fun things from Felicity Jane for sure. I also might try a one-off on a kit club I'm interested in but haven't tried yet like Hip Kit or Coco Daisy. I'd probably scoop up some cut files & digital products from the Lilly Pad too. I love my oxide inks & TH stamp press. Happy shopping!
