Season's Greetings! It's December. How did that happen?! I haven't been to TM in a few weeks due to Thanksgiving, the flu hitting our house pretty hard, and doing Christmas things. So I'm hoping to live vicariously through y'all until I can check out my store! Don't feel too bad for me though... I shopped online in bed on Black Friday while I was sick. I scored some great scrappy stuff, so I'm not too upset to have missed out on my regular TM stops. Have you you found anything good? Let us know! And please post photos and/or SKU numbers so we can see if our local stores carry what you got, too. We love that!

Mine was pretty much a bust this week just a bunch of two packs of Sizzix embossing folders I bought one on Monday then went back today to see if anything new had arrived and it looked the same just a bit more picked over. Not sure when I will get back unless someone posts some good finds.

I picked up some of the clear bits and pieces and several packs of bits (Amy Tan, Dear Lizzy). The very best find of all was Bazzill cardstock 25-packs in a great shade of white: Marshmallow! I've been doing a lot of watercoloring, inking, stamping and splattering lately so this was a wonderful surprise. I didn't see too many PP that I liked and now I'm going to try and find those EP packs.

I don't have just one pic of all my goodies but several. Hope you all don't mind. This is the best stuff my TM has had in quite a while if ever. So there is hope for some of you that say your's never gets anything. This is what came home with me: Not one but TWO JH paper pads. Here are the SKU #s: 1540433 for the Pebbles pad and 1629889 for the DIY pad. The Pebbles stickers are for Bella Rouge and Pen Pal. They had the same SKU #1629900. Basic Grey enamel dots and CP Journey Wood shapes. The SKU # for the wood shapes are 1629899. The round dots are 1620155 and the shaped ones have 1620159. I found the teal magnetic mat and brought it home because, well, it's teal. And matches my room and laptop. SKU# 1610140 Here are the embossing folders that I brought home. They all have the same number so if you call your store and they have them in stock, it still doesn't guarantee that you will get a particular one you are looking for. SKU#1629902 And this is just showing all the designs that my store had.

I went to another Tuesday morn that was near where I went today and found that blue magnetic mat above and another Slice design card called circus. It's so cute. I did see a pink magnetic mat with tools included for 15.00.

Wow my TM charged $4.99 for the embossing fokders. You found some good ones mine hsd s lot but different ones. I would have picked up the wood grain one even at the higher price.
Correction I just realized those weren't tge sizzix ones. My store had s ton if those but none of the WRMK. several of those looked interesting

Blah!!! I went to my closest TM yesterday and found nothing I wanted. Today I went to another TM and still nothing.
I did see: Sizzix embossing folders Tim Holtz dies (old stuff) Plenty of the pink cutting mats in both sizes glitter bottles Martha Stewart paint and media stuff AC DIY chalkboard tags/labels WRMK 4x4 mini album collection sets No EP collections packs No stuff like Naby got
I'm giving up on TM for awhile.

Sorry your TM was a disappointment FurryP . Mine didn't have much last week, but they got a ton of new things in this week – all of the EP papers people have been talking about, lots of new embossing folders, Thickers, embellishments. Here is my splurge: I finally just got a TH Tiny Attacher on clearance at Michaels last week, so it was a nice coincidence that I found some colored staples at TM to fit. They had a lot of the G45 Good Sport, including 12x12 and 6x6 pads and paper packs. The canvas embellishments are so pretty, and the BG 25th & Pine is perfect for the DD album I'm currently working on. All in all, a successful trip and some great bargains!

My TM needs to get the paper!! We have everything else, but not the paper. (Yah, I'm the impatient type.)

I am the proud owner of three Graphic 45 sports packs. I also bought 6 packs of the 25 sheets of Graphic 45. Then I found another couple of EP packs that I didn't find last time. There were also a number of new paper packs that seemed to be popular with the other ladies shopping today.

Today I found out that our TM is moving to a better location. I'm so excited! It will be a lot easier to get to and closer to me. Yay!

I went to TM on my lunch hour yesterday. They had TONS of stuff. So much stuff that the hooks were overflowing and and the shelves below were packed and it was hard to look through without causing an avalanche. I only purchased a few items, one embossing folder, a WRMK silicone(?) non-stick mat, a pack of green 8.5 x 11 paper and some of the AC red sticky tape.
Things I didn't purchase - Marvy Heat Tool for $8.99, WRMK and TH embossing folders $4.49 and $4.99, a perfect pearls set $4.99 but it was weird colors, craft mats in pink blue green and purple in 4 sizes, Slice accessories (no machines), lots of wood mounted and clear stamps and of course stickers and such.
If it was organized better (there are only three shelf units allocated for all crafty/sewing/knitting items) or I had more time I would've like to look and probably would've purchased more.

The manager told me that she got the largest shipment she had ever seen this week. They were on day two of getting it out. And yes, the need more space and longer hooks for the merchandise.

Fun TM shopping today! I went out to finish our Christmas shopping, which sent me out near two different stores. Of course I had to check them out while I was in the area Here's what I got. I don't think there's anything different from what's already been mentioned, but let me know if you can't see a SKU or price. I'm very excited about the EP pack! This was a line I missed somehow during our move and it was gone before I decided I loved it. They had a bunch of other great ones, but I showed some restraint. I'm also super happy to have found that wood grain embossing folder so many of you found! So cute!!! Plus the Amy Tan word thickers... Yum. And enamel dots?! Woohoo! Wish they'd had more of these! This might be my most favorite TM haul ever!

I got the Amy Tan giant gold words today. I also fund three very wide Christmas bags for gifts that won't fit in the bags I already have.

I had to make a trip to Tuesday Morning, just to try to find that woodgrain/tree embossing folder combo. Wow, what a change at my TM. The scrapbook section wasn't any larger, but it was stuffed with all the goodies everyone posted. They had WRMR embossing folders in 6x6 and 5.25x5.5 and also Sizzix embossing folders. Good thing I only had 20 minutes before the store closed; otherwise I might have done more damage.

Wooo Hoooo! I found a lot of the same things. My TM had a bunch of new things. I bought a bunch of those embossing folders (including the trees--so pretty.) I'm getting a bigkick machine for christmas, so I bought a couple dies, too. I got some thickers, 2 in white that can be colored easily. Some enamel dots, wood buttons, and nice baker's twine. Thanks for letting me know, I got some really great stuff and spent about $30 total.

This thread makes my wallet very happy that the closest TM is too far to drive to just to scrapbook shop.
Gorgeous stuff, ladies!

I kinda feel like I shopped here before I went over to TM ... the manager knows me on sight and said, "Hey, we got a lot of craft stuff in this truck." She looked rather startled when I said, "Yah, I'm here for the Echo Park paper packs." I picked up 8 of those, plus the Bloom embossing folder and the Christmas enamel dots. As we were checking out, I told her to expect Amy Tangerine Thickers next week, along with Basic Grey enamel dots and perhaps Graphic 45 pads. She thinks I'm psychic now.

We know more about their stock than the people who work there, that's for sure. I amaze the little old ladies at my TM with stories of YouTube haul videos and the info that's shared online. They can't believe it, and get all twittery sharing the news with each other. It's very cute.

My Tuesday Morning had the cart out full of stuff yesterday morning - I was too chicken to go rummaging through the cart. I went back last night and the cart was still not emptied. I am on my way there now - it better be emptied.

I don't know why you would be chicken to go through the shopping cart. Most of the time and most likely they're so behind on putting things out that that's one of the reasons it's there full of stuff so that you can go through it, or at least that's what I was told anyways. I always go through them and have found items I know would be gone if it had been put out. Don't be chicken, just do it.
