Oh my goodness - may I ask the location? I'm in GA and our store is still very light on inventory. There are areas of the store blocked off (like they did on the stores that were closing) - and they actually have to have signs up saying that they are NOT closing and inventory should be increasing soon.... I've seen all the commentary about the warehouse consolidation, etc. - it seems like some states are getting pre-BR levels of inventory (that's my guess from pics I've seen on instagram....), I just don't think the volume has found it's way to the SE yet ;-)
Colorado. Just a short drive... Very short indeed
A short visit earlier today - lots of Christmas decorations coming in, but not Christmas crafts yet. It looks like they did get a nice shipment in of AC Travelers Notebooks - multiples of each style. Also saw the AC "Memory Planner" binders and inserts (I didn't realize those were 4-rings....); a lot KingsArt art supplies and a couple of the Hampton Arts Ink cube sets of 4 (first I've seen any at my store). Only new PL I saw were 2 Value Packs; only new paper pack was the PP Home For Christmas Project Pad - picked that up and several of the Travelers Notebooks (7.99/ea - before quarantine, they were 9.99/ea - so one thing that came down in price!)
Hope everyone is having a great weekend!

I'm living vicariously through all of you! I haven't been in a "fun" store since February. I told DD we'll probably lose our minds when we can actually go shopping freely. I would have gone crazy by now if I hadn't been out much. Our numbers have been pretty reasonable (not that any are good), and all of our stores require masks. No one bucks the system that I have seen for months. DH is about as high risk as one can be, so we don't really have a choice. I go to the supermarket at 6 am, Costco during senior hours, and Target once in a great while.

I am kind of surprised we have avoided it so far.

(and if there is anything I can grab for you, pm me) I went to the Roseville one last week and it was saaaaddd. I left with nothing.

I just like the thrill of the hunt.

Very small craft cart at one of my TM today. I left so sad. I went today to both stores. The paper had been cleared out by someone. It was strange to see it so empty. Neither store had much new. I bought nothing.

I went today. I got a 12x12 Frozen II page kit and Studio Calico colored vellum packs. Both had 920 dates.
All clearance is an extra 25% off this weekend. I got a 12.25"x5' ombre HS minc foil for $2.39 and a glitter set for $2.39 as well.

We got dumped on (snow) for the last 24 hours, so I don't know if the trucks will even make it to the stores tomorrow. Slick roads for sure.

Snow! 950nancy ! I'm so not ready for that. It's been cloudy and about 43 degrees and damp feeling all day and I'm freezing. I'm a wimp. I *almost* went to TM this morning. I went to the dentist, which put me about a mile from the nearest TM. But, it was a left-hand turn to go towards the store and I decided I was too lazy to battle the traffic. Ha. In my defense, this store has been looking pretty abandoned by TM. So many empty shelves. It probably would have been a waste of gas. Maybe next month.

We had our first good snowfall (about 6 inches) the day after Labor Day. It was a shocker, but helped with all of the wildfires. This last snow did the same thing. I am not a fan of early snow, but when it helps put out our two largest fires in state history... I'll take it.

Pretty much another bust this week. They had some new paint/mixed media stuff and some new Bazzill 100 sheets packs. They also had new Echo Park 24 pads (2 x 12 styles) in new lines, but the lines were the ones you can buy with the sticker sheet for $6.99. They also had some new stamps/dies combos. Nothing that I needed.

While waiting for DH, who was at an appointment, I went to pick up something from a medical supply store. I had to use the GPS to get there and then to get back to where DH was. The GPS took me past a Tuesday Morning, so I stopped by. I haven’t been to that one in ages, since they are a 45 minute drive away, and it is a “feast or famine” location. I wasn't sure if they were even still open, but they were, so I stopped by.
I am a sucker for paper, and they had a ton of 25 sheet paper packs and paper pads. I had no business buying any, but I left with some fun papers, including some Christmas Disney paper, since I still need to finish scrapbooking our Disney Christmas trip.

I haven't seen Christmas Disney at any of our stores. I have seen a ton of Disney though.
