Here: WhimsodoodleLike, the biggest and best scrapbook and stamp store in the South East!!! I am so exciting (and no, why would you say that the reason I suggested a weekend getaway to St Pete to my family was simply because I really want to visit this store--shame on you for the thought!!) |

You must show us what you buy! I will! Too bad I have been spending money like crazy the last month or so--there are SO many sales out there. But this will be a once in a year experience and heck, when was the last time I ever got to go to a scrapbook store other than MIchaels or Joanns? Um...NEVER LOL. I will just get things that I know I wont be able to get cheaper online or at Joanns etc. (I am saying this more for me than for anything else--self-control, Hillary!) |

lucky you! I've never been there - although I think it's quite possibly my closest LSS at this point...I haven't been to St Pete's since before I started scrapping in 2002...one day I'll convince DH to take the LONG drive down there again

You're going to have the best time.  I wish I could go too. The place is positively huge! I'm linking the LSS lists we made up at the end of last year in case anyone else wants to make some plans. Here's the Southeast Region LSS List, and there are links to the other regions in the first post. If anyone wants to suggest more stores, I'll add them on. |

That looks like an amazing store. So much product, so nicely organized. I might need to arrange a trip to Florida.

If you can, wait and go on Sunday. They're having a huge Superbowl sale! I'm grabbing a couple friends and we're going down for it. I used to work two blocks away and could go on my lunch hour, went to some awesome weekend crops there too. Now I live an hour and a half away, so it's a road trip. But I'm very excited for Sunday's sale. Have fun - you're going to love it!

Wow that looks like a great way to spend a Saturday. I remember when we used to have a couple of big LSSs near me. Ahhh, the good old days.

You're giving me ideas. I'm spending 2 weeks in Fort Lauderdale in June- I may just have to take a side-trip to St. Petersburg.

okay, so i went, it was FABULOUS. but they were getting ready for their big sunday sale, and i just couldnt bring myself to spend full price when i knew that a lot of it would be discounted tomorrow...even though i won't be there!! is that weird??? plus, dh and i have to rein in our expenditures over the next few months, so i just got myself some lawn fawn sentiments, some versamagic inks, and a few twine things on sale. i was good! oh, and a tim holtz centering ruler which someone here recommended to me--i was really happy to grab that. I am hoping my son goes to college on the west coast in 2 years so i'll have plenty of reasons to stop by the store then LOLOL. Not that I'm trying to influence him or anythign.....

I am glad you had a great time there. I visited the store over a year ago & attended a lesson by Amy Tangerine (what a great thing to do on my holiday). The store ladies were lovely and as I was coming over from the UK, they said I could borrow tools in the crop room, which I did. I can't wait to return as it is one of the very best stores I have been to.

If I can catch a class in June it would make the drive so worth it. SaveSave |

I took some smaller tools in my suitcase but they had tools for use. Also the lovely scrappers in the class also helped me out. I have just looked on their site and the lessons are up to March 24th at the moment. |
