...and I'm ready. I won't be able to stay up until midnight every night the whole month but definitely on Sunday and for Lawn Fawn. I hope that this year they give a full list with manufacturers and release dates. They've done that before but not last year and it was really annoying.
Anyone else set and ready to go?

I like the excitement, but I never buy anything during Stamptember. I can't stand the stress! Good luck scrappyesq ! I hope you manage to get everything you want! |

Heidi, the owner, did a livestream with Jennifer McGuire and Aaron from Hero Arts and said that they are launching Stamptermber at midnight on the 1st by going live, but then they will reveal each release at Noon eastern time every day instead of at midnight. It's at the video at about 46:18 www.youtube.com/live/ZHhUVKFiwyM?si=nGwVhnjoDVIM97Ce |

Wow, that’s a big change! I never minded the midnight releases because I’m 3 hours ahead in the PNW, 9pm is fine  Not that I actually buy anything these days. I forgot about Stamptember until I was browsing someone’s IG today. I have to be honest with myself about how little I stamp lately and how many SSS sets I’ve declutterred recently. |

I was good with the midnight releases this time beacuse for several Stamptember days I will be in Japan, and it will be midday. But noooooooo, of course go and switch it up THIS year. LOL.

I didn't even know until last year that Die-cember was a thing. How long have they been doing that?
Stamptember - Sometimes it is too much stress when they have FOMO things for sale. And I was just fine with the midnight releases since I am on the west coast also, but now I will be working at noon eastern.

I always enjoy checking it out, but have never purchased anything from it. Last year there wasn't anything I was interested in. It's nice they're making the time of releases a bit more convenient.

I have never bought during Stamptempber. I don't have the $$ to make multiple purchases all month.
I do enjoy watching things sell out. It's amazing to me how "once it's gone it's gone" is such an effective selling technique.

well I watched the Laura Bassen narrated video of the Simon Brand stuff for September. I seriously loved loved about a 1/3 of it and liked almost all the rest.
I love Laura's narration. She covers it all but doesn't linger.
Unfortunately, everything has gotten so pricey that I will have to wait for a sale on some of my faves. I hope they will be in stock this November!

Do you have a link for that? I went to her youtube and am not seeing it, thank you so much! Nevermind, found it on the SSS youtube, thanks! |

Well, I popped into the site this morning (I know, I'm early for whatever is happening at 9am pacific) and there is one thing I NEED, luckily it is a 3 part stencil set and only $10. It sits in my cart. So far, so good. And yes, I do realize day 1 is not even over yet. Also, yes, I am delaying my shower until after the 9am SSS thing.  <---- easily influenced |

The intro video was posted at noon and not midnight. I know that the new timing works out for a lot of people but for me (especially without a chronological list of designers) I don't think I can participate as much as I have in the past. I'm usually not free at 12 when I'm at work, and I don't want to scramble to log on only to find out the collab for that day is a designer I have no interest in. I'm going to try to catch Lawn Fawn, but even that may not work out depending on scheduling. I think my wallet is Stamptember safe this year.

So far not that impressed with the exclusive releases. The only thing that caught my eye was the plaid embossing folder which I put on my wish list for a future purchase.

I'm just watching the Simon release now - I really like a lot of it. The pumpkins background is gorgeous. Emily Midgett's colouring on that Gina K floral set is incredible. I took a class from her for a Spellbinders event once, I think I'll have to go back and rewatch it.
They usually have 20% off all Simon-branded products a few times a year, possible even at the end of Stamptember, so I will hold out for that. I do have a gift card there, so it will be nice to spend that.

Is there a place to see the collaborations with stamp companies without watching a video? When I go to the page I think it should be on it's showing everything as coming soon even though 2 should be showing? I can see the SSS exclusive sets, but I'm looking for the sets made by other companies. This is the link I thought it should be, but is only showing lots of boxes with "image coming soon" and "out of stock" www.simonsaysstamp.com/collections/stamptember-exclusive-collaborations |

If you go to their blog it lists the special for the day. There is basically a blog hop today and coupons on some of the blogs. You can get a free die and stamp set with $100 purchase or foam pop up tape with any purchase..things like that.

I think they had 20% off SSS over the Thanksgiving holiday? |

It will look like that until they start doing the daily reveals and then you'll be able to see what they have for sale just for that brand and any from previous days that haven't sold out yet. It looks to be in random order right now because the different products for each company aren't even grouped together (but will be released together). So the only useful info we have right now is the prices. The collabs seem to start tomorrow 9/3 at noon. The first couple of days are just reveals for the SSS exclusive collections. |

Some are great sets. I just cant afford (won't pay) their prices. But I do enjoy checking them out.

Art Impressions up first. Didn’t sort to the top when it dropped. Definite pass for me.

Art Impressions today...they are ok, but not my style. I wish something was because the promos for spending 30 bucks are pretty good.

I like the Art Impressions set but not enough to buy it. The promos are nice, too bad you can’t combine it with the free shipping.
