We have a Who Gives a Scrap in town and I like to pop by every few weeks to see what is new. They posted on FB that they were not taking any more donations for the week. They needed to get caught up. I figured that meant they had a bunch of stuff ready to go out on the floor. I could tell immediately when I got there that they had a huge donation. They had two full buckets of dies with stamps. It was like Christmas. I got all of this for about $40. Most of the dies/stamps were unused. The stamps were clean and the dies were still connected. Now I need to get to creating.

WHAT! I have never heard of this store. Good thing we don’t have something like that here or I’d probably be bankrupt!!!

I keep forgetting we have that store. I need to go check it out! Go soon. Not much for paper unless you like early 2000's, but new stuff in every day and you never know. I have had great luck since they moved to the new store.

Curiosity got the best of me! This what I came home with just now. I could spend a day just digging around but I only had an hour and still found some good stuff.

I can't believe you would forget you have that store nearby coloradocropper . Nice haul! It's on the other side of town so kinda out of sight, out of mind I guess. It was much bigger than I thought it would be. Next time I'm going to take my sweet time!

It is just across the street from one of my favorite restaurants, near HL, Walmart, and my car wash, so I go past often.

I think I need to move to Colorado, hahaha.
Are the items donations? Are there that many people getting out of scrapbooking?

What a great store, and good finds for both of you! I would totally donate to, as well as buy from, a store like that.

I think I visited that one a few years ago when I was in colorado! We have a couple in our area too, and I like to donate to them, but the one the hours are really limited I have a hard time getting there to drop off donations and sometimes they're very picky about what they take. The other one is bigger and open more but they are all so very picky about what they take and you have to make an appointment if you want to take in more than one box etc. Although I would like my craft items to go to a store like that to both support the work they do, and to know that they will find a home with someone who really really wants them, it's really discouraging to try to get my stuff to the right place.
