I didn't see it myself, but the prices I've heard is $49.99 for the main, $19.99 for the album, $19.99 for the mini kits and $14.99 for the stamps. Main+Album are roughly 70 dollars? I'm guessing the main is smaller than last years, then. Mini kits seem a bit pricey, maybe it'd be more product than I thought. the main doesn't include a stamp, which brings the cost down a bit. So it's probably not a ton smaller than last year.

If you get the main, album, and a stamp, that'd be $85--not bad considering all that in last year's kit was $99. Maybe the main will be a bit smaller, though? You could tack on a mini and still be at $105 with free shipping for domestic customers. I'll have to take my lunch break a little late today so I can be on at 2, haha!

I know there was another thread about a possible OA kit, but does anyone know about gossamer blue? Have they announced a kit and/or time frame?

I think SC/Ali tried to get out ahead of everyone else this year after the issues last year. I bet we'll start hearing from others (OA, Scraptastic, GB, I think Citrus Twist usually has a kit, Cocoa Daisy??) soon.

I am in the minority and didn't love the sneaks of the AE kit, so I am trying not to get sucked into all of the hype and FOMO about it and patiently wait for one that I like better.

AmandaA i have been thinking the same thing. i am really going to carefully consider before i order anything even if i do miss out. i didn't order any kits last year and my album came together beautifully with bits and pieces from previous years. now that i have sold almost all of my christmas stash, i am hoping to purchase something this year but i am not sure what. i love the look of the hello december kit from stampin' up (and, based on the quality of the one other pl kit i have ordered from su…square corners and all…i would not hesitate to order another) and that kit along with an embellishment kit can be had for $25. i used so little of what came in the WITL kit that it makes me think that i really don't need to totally jump on the band wagon. that said, i am interested in seeing the full reveal and the albums because i love my little black and white WITL album so if they are similar, i may need one.

From a Citrus Twist email earlier this week:
• Christmas Kits. We are just 1 month away from our Christmas Daily Pre-Sale. This year's Christmas kit is $50 (plus shipping if you are not a current kit subscriber). We require a $5 down payment upon purchase. The balance - plus shipping if applicable - will be billed automatically on November 1st. Pre-sale begins for our subscribers on September 30th, 10 p.m. PST. We will send out a newsletter later in September once more Christmas product arrives in our warehouse. This year's Christmas kit comes with a free class. • Christmas Stamps. This year we will offer two 3 x 4 Citrus Twist Kits-brand Christmas stamps, available for sale beginning October pre-sale. (Don't forget, shipping is free on Citrus Twist Kits-brand stamps.)
I didn't know there were so many DD products either - just went along with the one I knew and loved until last year, when the price was out of my league, esp with international postage. Since I just subbed to a CT kit, this one looks like a distinct possibility even though, like the rest of you, I hardly need more DD supplies ;-)

Do these other kits have exclusive items? I know OA has in the past. So that if you don't get the kit, you don't get those items. That's typically why I buy either OA or Ali's DD -- because there's stuff in there that I can't get anywhere else and I want it. I think I have enough stash to put together 2 or 3 DDs (christmas is my favorite!!). So I'd love to hear about these other kits and if they had exclusives in the past.

I'm pretty sure they all have exclusive items...at least 3x4 cards, some have more thank others as far as embellishments too.

OK, what'd you all get?
I just got the main kit plus the JJ red 6x8 album with the white text on it. Can't decide on a stamp...not sure if I want any of them enough to pay $15. I don't feel like I need any of the mini kits...just seems like too much product considering I have leftovers from last year!!

JJ 6x8 album (red w/ words) Ali's main kit Tab stickers
I'm on the fence about getting a mini kit...Ashley's is calling my name but not sure I can justify the price!

Now I'm not even excited about these. Maybe it's because I'm a bit under the weather. Maybe I've just had enough of SC. Sorry, Ali.

None of the stamps jumped out at me right away. They're all cute, but I have a ton of Christmas stamps already. I'm sure if I keep looking, I'll convince myself I need one of them. ha. I really love bits and pieces of each mini kit...wish I could mix and match them into a mini-kit of my own I really hope that JJ album is as red in person as it is in the picture!

It looks pretty darn red to me! I didn't mind last year's, but I like the super bright red this year more.
I love Ali and her style, plus the main kit is awesome...I just try to not think about the fact that it's tied to SC and hope most of the profit is going to Ali...

Well, I got free shipping....
Ali's Main Peppermint's mini Jasmine's 6x8 album (that was the hardest thing for me to pick out!!) Ali's icon stamp Jasmine's stamp (perfect for Christmas cards, which is how I justified a second stamp set) Tab stickers
I'm on the fence about going back and getting Jasmine's mini and possibly KP's stamp set. I hate that deer head, though. LOL.

I was so disappointed in the album color last year and ended up getting the white one after the fact. I still have to find a use for the orange/peach colored one, and figure out how to cover up the "December Daily" on the spine.
I think I might add Jasmine's mini-kit to my order....

LOL, I wanted Kelly's stamp, but that deer head is annoying! I think I have a couple sets with a similar image already too and will never use them!

I only got the mini kit by Ashley G. None of the others stood out to me, actually I´m a little disappointed. I LOVE Kelly Purkey, but the colors in the kit are not my taste at all. I can´t wait to see what the other kit clubs are coming up with!

I got:
Ali's main kit Jasmine's 6x8 album (that damned thing better be RED!!) Jasmine's mini kit after I said I wasn't getting any of the mini kits Ali's icon stamp set. I wanted Ali's holiday circles stamp set and it's already sold out. Don't care for that much.
