After reading this thread i almost got sucked into buying all of Ali’s DD things but then talked myself out of it. The $$$$ and the stress of things running out are too much for me right now. I have enough stress in my life as 😂.
I decided to grab a bunch of the Boho Christmas and make my album solely out of that and my large stash of Christmas/winter things.
May the odds be with all of you trying to order your faves this morning!

I checked out twice already, and my total came to $84.01, which is well within my budget. I have two of the classes in my cart, but I'm in no hurry to check out right now. I got the green floral album, the specialty paper, the holiday paper pack, and the die cut bundle. I really don't need anything else but may add Liz's stamp later on.

Ordered everything I wanted with no issues. Main kit, green floral album, paper, insert pages, die cuts and plastic tags. I haven't used AE for my album in a couple years and am excited about this kit!

Phone ordering might have been easier than my MAC! Put in 3 orders and adrenalin ordered the 3rd set of stuff - LOL!
Tempted to get a second set of the plastic tags but holding off for now.
I still have a maybe/hold list depending on what cute ideas get posted in the coming weeks, but love what I ordered so far.
Ended up getting green and star albums bc I know I’ll use both.

Well that was anticlimactic! I keep forgetting they continue to improve the back end of things and even DD is a much smoother release so it really shocked me when I was able to get 3 orders in within 3 minutes. I decided to go by grouping--ordered tags & labels first, then kit & album, then specialty cards and a few other things I wanted...all while waiting for the site to crash!

Feels really weird not to order the mini kit this year. I have been getting that forever and I liked the papers so much more than previous years, but I just couldn't justify.

I had to open the PDF of the items because the photos weren't loading, but nothing I wanted was sold out.
The first album that's gone is the 10x8 grey linen one from a couple of years ago. I guess some 10x8 folks went for that one instead of the new red one.

I ordered two stamps and I couldn't resist the wood stars. Until I read your posts this morning, I didn't remember the products even went on sale today let alone what time.

We did get the free digital of the Plastic tags due to a spelling error on one tag if they helps!

What’s misspelled this time? 😵💫 I’ve been debating for a few days whether to get last year’s Joy album for the future. I probably won’t (because I’ve been really working on my album hoarding tendency!), but I’m tempted.

I had some photos. Got everything I wanted. All the photos are showing in my box now. Didn’t see any sell outs. Except for tiny attacher refills… I swear each year they only have one box 😂 Order in - both 6x8 albums, no kits, other random assorted items like canvas circles and die cut page inserts for me! Such a shame I can’t split the postage costs with another Aussie pea but such is life!

The first album that's gone is the 10x8 grey linen one from a couple of years ago. I guess some 10x8 folks went for that one instead of the new red one. Bummed this one went so fast, since I was considering it if I went with 10x8 this year, but maybe it will be restocked 🤞 Went with the 6x8 Star album, Main Kit, Plastic Tags, Holiday Die Cuts, Specialty Paper Pack, Die Cut Paper Inserts. Will order stamps later, since we have time to decide before the preorder cut off. Still on the fence about Envelope Bundle, Wood Veneer Stars, White Felt Numbers The process was very smooth this year 👍

Why TF did I watch the advent calendar spoiler video?? I actually like a lot of the embellishments in there 😅🫠 I watched it too and yeah. But I really hate the price point. Where can I find the advent calendar video?

Got in and out in under 10 minutes without any issues, other than not being able to see product photos. I got the main kit, the specialty papers, the 10x8 album (I'm in the minority I guess and like Ali's handwriting lol), the die cuts, and the painted wood stars. Now to avoid the website for all of September....

You have always been a part of the heist. You're only mad now because you don't like your cut.

In and out no fuss. It was so easy I’m sure I over indulged. I was most worried about the green album and the specialty papers. Those were on my first order. By the time I got to my third order it was all the random items that I was eyeing but not 100% sure about.

The site was really slow loading the December Daily page for me initially, it froze about halfway through trying to load, and I couldn’t get it to work, it really stressed me out for a little bit. I was able to get everything on my list, so it all worked out. I had to pay close attention since I was reading the words instead of clicking on pictures, but I don’t think I made any mistakes. I was afraid I was going to order something I didn’t want 😂. The only major glitch I had, and am still currently having, is it WILL NOT let me look at the classes. When I click on the class tab, it immediately takes me back to the kits page. Oh well, at least those aren’t something that will sell out, so I just need to remember to order before the cheaper price goes away. Hopefully everyone else got everything on their lists since it was a decent amount of time before any of this year’s products sold out.

There shouldn't be a tab for classes under the DD box area, if you're seeing one. They moved it to the main Classes page yesterday or something b/c they were having issues. Per their IG. aliedwards.com/shop/classes
