Do you find yourself buying a lot of backups to the supplies you love and own? No, I don't buy backups of anything, I do have multiples, like multiple 12" trimmers, but they are all different because I keep trying to find one that's great. Same for rulers and adhesives. Keep looking for better products. How much of consumable supplies do you feel like you need so you don't run out or get caught short without them? If you're referring to thinks like adhesive or white cardstock.... things like that -- I don't have much extra on hand - like one or two adhesive refills, 10 white cardstock sheets. When I run out, I buy more. Do you buy back ups of things that you worry will get discontinued or be out of stock frequently? I don't buy back-ups, but sometimes I buy things I don't need at the present time because it may be long discontinued before I get around to working with it, for example, 49 & Market Collections - I have bought some that it may be months or even a couple of years before I get to do the project that I bought it for but in a couple of years I wouldn't be able to find that collection. Do you ever feel like you have too much of a stock of something, or does it make you feel comfortable having several backups? I don't have stock of any one item, but I have too much of a of some categories of things: paper, embellishments, stamps.... I know those are pretty broad categories, but to be more specific would require some time to look through my supplies. Where or how do you store all your back up supplies? In my craft room + two craft closets. Do you ever wish you did not have that much of a supply stored? Yes, every time I go to look for something to start a new page I wish I didn't have so much patterned paper & embellishments to look through.

So, there are a few things I would order at OfficeSupply.com that are creeping up my urgency list. Of course, the Solar White Classic Crest 110 lb IS currently out of stock....
Grrrrr!

Oh, how annoying! I used to buy it from Amazon or Joann but it got harder and harder to find, or just really expensive. I was glad when someone recommended the 100lb Hammermill when it was marked down - I tried it and decided it was heavy enough to be my everything cardstock instead of trying to source both 80lb and 110lb Neenah. I hardly miss the extra sturdiness of 110 now.

It’s great for printing digital ephemera that I can print and cut as needed.

I have many things, but not one specific item I love. I might buy a few sheets of a paper or color of cardstock if I know it will get used.
I do get nervous when I'm low on adhesive. Still, I don't stock up because that's boring.
