I stopped by one of the stores on my side of town and didn’t see any of the TH platforms out on the shelves. I have a Misti that I got after BFF’s mom passed away, she had two of them. BFF kept the smaller one and let me have the bigger one because I’ll actually use it, LOL. I’m afraid the lid will crack so I want a TH one as a backup. They had piles and piles of WeR trimmers in virtually every size offered. I’m still on the hunt for the layers rulers and haven’t found a set yet.
I ended up buying an I Love Christmas paper/sticker pack from Echo Park and the Sweet Sugarbelle nested flower cookie cutter set I passed on last time. My DD saw a melted snowman decorated cookie online that she wants me to make and the wonky flower shape would work great for that.

I’m more of a simple scrapper and trying to purchase items that replenish things I consume. Here’s what I picked up yesterday.  |

Did anyone actually get a Tim holtz stamp platform yet? I called the product hotline and 2 nearby smaller stores were supposed to have 8 and 11, better store 16. None to be found in any store. I asked in the “better” store, they had no clue. Then I said the product hotline said they have 16. “What is the product hotline?” GRRRRRRR I'm beginning to think that hotline is not really a thing. My store has no idea what I'm talking about. I've personally checked with the store 3 times since the hotline said it had them. I then waited until the Tuesday truck came in, and I stared calling. Each person I've talked to has given me a different day for when all the boxes that came in yesterday will be opened and on the shelves. Tuesday morning (LOL), they said by that afternoon; Tuesday night, when I went in and they didn't have it, I was told boxes would be on shelves by Wednesday afternoon, and today when I called, I got told they still don't have it and all boxes would be unpacked and on the shelves by Thursday. Shouldn't it be called Thursday Afternoon then?! LOL In other news, they have no other scrappy goodness. No Thickers. No new embellishments. No new paper in ages even. |

i actually saw the travel platform at mine last one. they only had one. i contemplated it for a minute and then walked away. BTW, if anyone happens to see any of the Tim Holtz Binder Covers for $1.99, i'm looking for a bunch of them. they had them a few months back and they haven't gotten anymore in. his new covers have the metal binder mechanism in them already. i just want the covers. here's what they look like  |

The hotline is good for letting you know that it was in their store at one time. I have found that it doesn't update purchases made for days. So you could easily go into a store and think they have it and it has been sold already. I checked today and the cashier said her register was no longer letting them use the product locator. I wonder if it is on the outs.
Days that shipments come in can definitely be a crap shoot. They have truck trouble, delivery issues, and other things that change the schedule. We have three in town and one of them is not on the same schedule as the other two.

The platform is for the ad coming on the 18th.

I went in today...specifically for the platform. They lady was so nice and searched for it for me, but came back saying her boss wouldn't let her sell it to me. I was so frustrated since I drove over an hour for it, but oh well. I did grab a few things and she said that she'd call when they went out. Unless they are willing to hold one for me so a friend can pick it up, I probably won't be able to grab one.

My store gets shipments on Wednesday mornings (go figure) but usually don’t have stuff out until Thursday. So if the TH platform is coming out the week of the 18th it means my store won’t have it on the shelf until Black Friday. Maybe they already have it the back like some stores and will be putting it out Monday the 19th. It wouldn’t hurt to check and it is on my way home.

It is for an ad going up on the 18th so it should be there like my stores or arriving this week ahead of Sunday. |

My better store gets a truck on Tuesday and has everything out by noon Wednesday, so that is when I have been going.
Looking at YouTube TM hauls, the stores in my area get those items up to 4 weeks later. Today I got the Vicki Boutin 6x8 pad that people showed a month ago. First time it showed up in my store was today.
The product hotline is definitely a thing and I have found it to be pretty accurate. I’ve called and found the specific item in that store.
I made the joke because I thought it was funny the 2 store employees never heard of it.
So when I got the numbers of 8,11,16 for the Tim holtz stamp platforms, I called a few days later again and it said none in my area. I am thinking it was taken off the product hotline since it was not supposed to be available yet (as someone mentioned until Nov 18).

Last night my son had an appointment near a TM and I stopped in for a few. An employee was putting product away in the same row as the crafty stuff and I asked him if he had any scrapbooking things in his cart. He said no, but he has a whole basket of crafty things to put away. He brought out the basket and it was full of Tim Holtz travel stamp platforms! I grabbed one of those, a set of mini banner dies, puffy dinosaur stickers (for my nephew), two new Echo Park collection that I haven't seen before, and an Amy Tan rolling stamp.

The did have some TH Holiday board-type frames in red with gold printing. They're similar in style to the book cover you're looking for, but they're flat boards. They might be something you could make work if you added a spine. |

One of the mangers told me that they have been trying to update it and that stores will no longer have the ability to search on their registers. Ugh. |

Just an FYI for an Houston peas, I went in my TM today and they had three travel platforms and loads of other fun stuff I didn't need.
Ended up with the platform, a power punch, foam Escape to Paradise alpha Thickers, a Thicker alphabet alignment pack and a We R Sticky Piercer.

My TM had a bunch of Dear Lizzy embellishments today. Thickers and stickers from the Hooray line, cork bows, ribbon photo corners, Stay Magical glitter words, clear phrase stickers, tiny alphas, Thickers, rubber shapes and more.

So it's not exactly a Tuesday Morning, but I wanted to participate in this thread.  I guess the equivalent here is Noz. Ttagging sleepingbooty just in case.  I went today for the first time and I found a few things I'm happy with: a value pack of Scrapbook Adhesives with an extra 50% off so 1.50 euros, a pack of OA embellishments (9 to 5) for 0.99, a Heidi Swapp Christmas paper pack for 2.50, Ki icicles (from the Playlist collection) for 0.59 and embellishments from the same collection for 0.99. I also bought Becky Higgins/Pink Paislee PL Sunshine edition Peace, Love and Sunshine edition for 3.50. Not sure I'll use everything in it,but I've always liked the soft color palette. ETA: there were also Ki Memories/Hampton Art paper packs for 1.99 but I didn't like the patterned papers. They looked flimsy, too. There were also Artemio and Bazzill items (brads, stickers, ribbons), Heidi Swapp Minc items (packs of tags), Smashbook "grab bag" kits and a pack of We R Memory Keepers pink foil (for Heat Wave pens). |

@millefeuilles Noz who? Noz what? 
Turns out the coastal départements of Provence aren't granted any Noz stores, guapa. I'd never heard of them. And they have cheap Scrapbook Adhesives? It's not fair! *throws a scrappy tantrum* *stomps feet* No(z) scrappy fun for us down here... Oh well, I guess we still have the sea view.
You got a core kit for 3,50€? (Sunshine is by the ABM sisters, right? Not Liz, I think.) Did they have any other PL kits? The Inspire edition by chance?

I'm so jealous of all of you with Tuesday Morning near you.
My closest one is quite a distance, and the few times I was ever close enough to stop in, they had squat in the scrapbooking supplies.

Ah, shoot. I'm in Provence (in the border of Provence, though) and I have two near me. The first had only one pack of Scrapbook Adhesives and the second had none (they didn't have much, in fact). No other core kits, I'm afraid. The one I bought was from Pink Paislee, but I got the name wrong--it's Peace, Love and Sunshine. It's an old core kit. And yes, 3.50 euros! ETA: Do you have an Action store? I don't like their scrapbooking aisle much (too old-school for me), but they have embossing folders for 1.89 and some are 6x6 inches. 1,89 euros. |

I was in two new(er) ones today in Denver. They both have great craft sections. The store a mile from my house has squat. |

I was in a TM today and they said that store was no longer participating in ad events. I asked what that means? It means they will still get some, not all of the ad items and may get them before or after the ad day.
I thought that was odd - to be able to opt-out of ad events by store. She also said they get items 2-3 weeks after stores west of here. This is the East Hanover, NJ store.
Oh but a lot of craft items are coming this week - 220 pieces (64unique items). She had a sheet, but that was the lowest level of detail on the sheet.
I picked up 2 different Dear Lizzy washi tape booklets at 1.99 each and an Echo Park Meow collection pack at 5.99.

I called the 800 number this morning to see if my TM had the platforms in stock. It stated it had 10. I took off to go get one (over an hour away) but they were not out on the shelves. I asked the sales clerk if she could help me find them & since neither of us could see them out on the shelves I asked if she would check the back. She came back with the paperwork in her hands, saying it's going on sale on 11/18 & she could not (nor would not) sell them before then. She then cautioned me that "get here right at 11:00 am as crafts sell out immediately on ad days. Since it's an hour away, I'm not likely to get there before the locals do! I love my little travel platform. I use it all the time instead of my large TH platform. I wanted another one for 2 reasons... 1. to go into my 'camping' crafts bag (stays packed with tools, etc. so all I have to do is grab it & go) and 2. as a backup just in case something should happen to my original one. All I can do is hope I make it there on Sunday in time before they all are gone.  |

Today I picked up Dear Lizzy Petals Thickers (the same ones finaledition posted above) Dear Lizzy Fine & Dandy Darling Details cardstock stickers Dear Lizzy Fine & Dandy accent and phrase stickers Dear Lizzy Lovely Day paper pad Dear Lizzy Lovely Day embellisments/enamel dots AC everday letter stickers I love what I got today. I'm hoping to see Fine & Dandy paper pads in TM soon. I'd love to use that for my next Disney album. I'm going to hold off on using the Thickers, Fine & Dandy stuff, and AC letter stickers because they go together so well and they'll be perfect for that album. But I'm going to dive into the Lovely Day stuff asap. If you see Fine & Dandy paper pads at TM give me a holler and tag me here, OK? |

I got some good things mentioned above, even though the huge, bright and beautiful brand new store that just opened nearby has a minuscule scrap section--I had to go to another for scrappy things. This is non-scrappy related, but I know we have some corgi people here like 950nancy . Look--corgi ice packs!There are four to a package for $6.99. SKU 1941654 Attachments:
