Since the old thread was getting a little long and hadn't had any updates for a while, I thought this would be a good time to start a new one.
I saw quite a few new goodies today: Sizzix dies for cardmaking, holiday dies such as snowmen and holly, Graphic45 stamps (new baby, baby shower, birthday), G45 6x6 pads & tags (Eerie Tales, Cats & Dogs,, Christmas), Thickers. ETA: I forgot to mention Crate Paper After Dark Chipboard stickers.
The big find for me was Inkssentials Craft Tags, 2 different large sizes (#10, #12) in Manila, Kraft, and Black. I'm going to make Halloween tag books out of the black tags for my (grown) kids with childhood pictures of them in their costumes. After taking Tim Holtz classes all summer, I'm hooked on tags! I practically bought them all. (Yes, I was one of those people today.)
Happy hunting, everyone.

I got the Crate Paper After Dark 12x12 Chipboard ($1.99) yesterday. They didn't get much else in that was all that exciting...but that definitely made the trip worth it to me.

Our store seems to be drowning in stencils, embossing folders and those cut and stamp kits. And three Anna Griffin paper pads popped up in the racks.

Mine rarely ever gets any holiday items. Bummer. But that doesn't stop me from checking it from time to time. LOL

Oh man, I would love to stumble upon those After Dark chipboard pieces! I "collected" that line from TJ Maxx last year and I loooooove it. But I could definitely use some more embellishments for it and I know I dont have the chipboard. Now I have a reason to hit up my TM. Maybe tomorrow. Thanks for starting the new thread!

Hi gang, I was at my local TM today, and found Bazzilll Marathon Tape Runners for $6.99/$7.99 (not sure why they were different prices, they were all complete tape runners, not just refills ). This is my very favorite adhesive. I also got some DIY Shop newspaper tags (the white ones with black typewriter font on them) for $1.99 and a super cute 4 piece 3x4 adhesive stencil set from Firefly. It came with one each of dots, diagonal stripes, hearts and stars for $2.99. They remind me of Ali Edwards' new stencil masks. And...drum roll please...I found the same kind of black and white striped Stone Wrap wrapping paper Becky Higgins just launched with her HOME line. Thinner stripes than the one she launched, but made of the same material. For $2.99, I was willing to give it a shot. They also had navy/white stripe.

I have been looking for the after dark chipboard too - no luck yet - maybe this week? I hope you find it! I only saw one sheet in the 2 stores I regularly go to. I typically dig in the shopping cart...because I'm there before it's stocked...because I'm obsessed. There were 3 at my store (there are 2 stores here that get the best stock, my closest is one, the other is the furthest and I WILL make the drive on a good week of stock) and I grabbed 2 of them. Find out when your store gets their truck and you'll have a better shot at getting it if you go the day of or the day after. You need to ask your store when the best day is because my store hates putting out craft as it's all small, they don't know what any of it is, and it takes a while to sort and put up when they get a lot so they do it last, so usually the day after truck is the best day right after they open. They know I come EVERY week and my kids and I will help stock stuff if they've already started. They are kind enough to let me dig through it, so I prefer to leave it in better shape than when I arrived (and when they have loose sticker sheets, like the ones from Prima, they get completely mangled and I hate seeing stuff get ruined like that...might as well optimize the chance of those things not ending up in the trash) and my kids LOVE to help out...probably because they aren't allowed to mess with the stuff in my craft room but they are allowed to touch it there as long as they are being helpful, lol.
