I was wondering what stores you all use.
My top two stores are Scrapbook.com and A Cherry On Top
I've also bought scrapbook supplies from: Not Just For Boys, Frantic Stamper, Frank Garcia, Scrap Your Trip, and Shadnee. I've had good experiences with all of these companies.
A couple of manufacturers I've bought products directly from are Cocoa Vanilla and Wild Whisper (before you could get their products in the US) and recently I bought from Uniquely Creative- I haven't found an America store that carries their products yet.
I've also bought some discontinued papers from a couple of Etsy sellers but I can't remember the names of their shops.
I found most of these stores from recommendations of the peas.
What stores do you use?

ScrapbookGeneration, Scrapbook.com, and ACOT are the ones I typically buy from. I'll also shop Amazon for scrappy stuff.
I've used ScrapYourTrip before and had good experiences.
Direct from the manufacturer? usually Echo Park although I have bought a warehouse box from Pinkfresh

We are lucky to have LSS's within our driving distance, so most of my scrappy purchases are from them. There are other Canadian LSS's that I occasionally order from on line. I don't tend to order from the manufacturers, b/c I want to keep these stores in business.
But I DO order from these on-line sites when I can't get it from one of these stores:
Scrapbook.com because their shipping is reasonable to Canada and because they are a great source for all the brands.
Paper Wishes because they have exclusives I like, especially word dies and specialty paper.
Jaded Blossom for the gnomes.
Taylored Expressions for their exclusive dies and stencils.
Spellbinders for particular items like glimmer system plates.
Occasional kits from Hero Arts, Spellbinders, Simon Says Stamps.
CTMH for page protectors. They are expensive, but they are large enough to hold my bumpy pages, and hold up in the ring binders.
Amazon for albums.

Scrapbook.com and SSS are the two I frequent the most. If I’m looking for an older spellbinder die I head to Amazon.

Sometimes Simon Says Stamp.

Pinkfresh,
I don’t order from A Cherry On Top. Last time I did years ago shipping was expensive and took a while to get here since I’m in SoCal and they’re in Michigan.

I use Scrapbook.com For products I'm ordering from the US. In Australia I most often use Scrapboutique but also order occasionally from Craft Online.

I mostly buy from ACOT and Crafts Direct. It's semi-local to me, but I often buy albums there online.

Also ACOT and sb.com. I have ordered from Paper Wishes and Frantic Stamper in the past but haven't thought about them in awhile. I should check those out again.  And also Starlit Studio. |

SB.com (due to the selection & availability) While I want to frequent ACOT due to its rewards program & usual availability of collections before other retailers, it must order less because items often sell out quickly & are rarely restocked. Plus, I find its cart that auto-alphabetizes inventory (which is mostly listed by the product name - e.g. EP Monster Mash, so products from the same collection are not grouped together in the cart) frustrating & would prefer to add items to the cart in the order I choose! |

Oh my gosh. That bugs me too. I didn't realize it was in alphabetical order but I know the collections all end up scattered on there. I do like ACOT because it lets you dump everything out of your cart at once. Sometimes I like to start over and a lot of sites won't let you do that. |

I just wanted to give a shout out to Frantic Stamper. I just ordered this week and I already received the products. I'm really impressed.

Sorry - I didn't even realize we were doing this. That would frustrate me as well. Working on getting this changed so that it sorts in the order you add items by default (and you can still click on the column headers to sort alphabetically if you prefer the old way). Edit: This change is live - let us know if you have any feedback! |

Paper Wishes because they have exclusives I like, especially word dies and specialty paper. I'll have to look them up. I remember buying out of their catalog years ago. Amazon has been my go-to online shop, although I have purchased from scrapbook.com also. TM used to sell - I think - it was Echo Park paper kits for about $4.99/pack and I remember having gone crazy over those. I enjoy using paper kits in my projects because everything coordinates. Does anyone have a good online source for scrapbook kits? I'm not looking for a kit club but just packs that include coordinating papers and embellies. |

ACOT. I love the discounted preorder code thing they started doing! I get what I want without worry of stuff selling out. The Cherry rewards are also such a nice perk to be able to add on top of any discount codes when I shop as well.
Scrapbook.com for some of their own branded items and things ACOT doesn’t carry or happens to be out of when I’m ordering. I also like that the seem to place large orders of stuff so it seems to hang around a little bit in case I decide I want another sheet of something or I end up liking a line after I see everyone else using it lol
I’ve also had good experiences at:
Scrapbook Generation (I ordered more from them to ship together when I was getting their kit clubs, switched to bank-it when those ended and then that didn’t work for me to wait so long for things/forgot what I ordered/double ordered stuff so I kind of stopped shopping there).
Crafts Direct. Especially for albums and page protectors.
Amazon. Sometimes it’s the only place I can find an item and free prime shipping is good for these items.

Where I live we have many lss’. I do order from SSS occasionally as they are kind to foreigners. SB unfortunately is a no-go. I haven’t tried ACOT yet. I wonder how they work crossing the border? Because I can get a fair bit nearby I don’t really have a fav online. Whomever has what I need. Tonight I ordered from ScrapShotz because I needed the Sentiment rubons from 49 and Market - Gardenia.

I forgot to mention Peachy Cheap. I do buy from there on occasion. Both of the deals offered today are tempting.
