So, I went to Joann’s to get stuff for school today and I was pleasantly surprised to see a whole slew of new stuff out and ready to purchase.
They had the Sparkle City stuff, all the stuff that is online, along with the papers by the sheet. I am used to Joann’s having thin, single sided papers of AC lines, but this was the actual double sided, thick paper like LSS sell. They also had a Pink Paislee line and something else that was cartoony and bright, but I was trying to focus on getting the stuff I needed for school and didn’t pay any attention to what it was.
They also had a big section of Bazzil paper. Smooth, linen texture, Swiss dot, tone on tone plaids and really, really pretty debossed shimmery heart paper. The plain paper was marked 99 cents a sheet, the heart paper was 1.99 a sheet. Paper signage said that the paper was 10 for $2.00 if the paper was 99 cents and lower, but all the paper rang up at the 10 for 2.00, even the heart paper. I had picked out just a few pieces of the heart paper for school (since I thought I was going to use a 40% off entire purchase coupon making it 1.20 a piece), but hustled back and got more so I didn’t have to be so parsimonious with it, and I bought some for myself as well.
Anyway, I was pretty excited, I don’t know if anything else will be going in, but I was pretty excited to get what I did and finally see the Shimelle stuff.

Mine doesn't have any of it yet. They have a space for it though.

I might swing by this week and take a look. I'm excited to hear about proper thick double sided papers. I need me some B sides!

The one I was at last week had a pretty small, skimpy paper crafting section. It’s nice to know some of their stores are getting decent stock in.

I just posted on another thread about getting lucky there. I scooped up Shimelle's project pad the day it hit the stores, and I picked up a ton of other goodies when they ran 40% off all scrapbooking a week later. My work load will lighten up after next weekend and I can't wait to start scrapping again!

I would love to be able to buy Bazzill cardstock in person. I'll have to check it out.

I haven't been to JoAnns in ages. Maybe I should make a trip there this week.

Still not new stuff at mine. Certainly no open stock paper. I have no doubt they’ll put it out the minute the sale is over

My local Joann's just put a bunch of their 12 x 12 papers on clearance for 7 cents last Thursday or Friday. It was doorbuster special. But the paper was thin compared to what I am used to getting online. I did scoop up about 20 sheets of Bazzill 8.5 x 11 for cards and some Coredinations 12 x 12 of plaids and dots in various colors. All the Project Life stuff was marked down, including the Magnolia Jane kit, which isn't that old, is it?
They were working on stocking the new stuff, so I didn't bother to try and look at that.

Surprised they still had any PL stuff at all! Mine either never got it or got rid of it ages ago. Their open stock paper is very thin, but at 7 cents a sheet I couldn't say no. I almost turned around and went back for more when it rung up so low. I had thought it was going to be 25 cents a sheet. I'm excited to hear that the new AC papers are the proper weight and double sided. |

I have scanned in things that were 80% off of what they were marked. |

I scored a date roller stamp for <$2 and a ton of Fuseable extra pockets (so I can make flip pockets) that I might actually just use with some red line tape because getting out the Fuse for one pocket sounds like a bitch, lol. |

Mine doesn't have any of it yet. They have a space for it though. It's there now! Just got back and got 30 sheets of the good stuff for $4.88. I had an additional coupon that was applied on top of the sales price. Yahoo!

They didn't have much out. Did you see all of the paper on the top shelf that they still needed to put on the racks? I bought some of the paper, but the lady said it might all be out by Friday. We must have missed each other. I was there around 1. Too funny. I did buy a lot of the line with bikes and butterflies. The other lines were so very pink. There is sloth paper coming out, so I'll be back on Friday. |

I went in and spent a (gulp) lot...but got SO.MUCH.PAPER! I was so excited to see the 1.99 paper for .20, I got enough to make all my invitations for my DD bday. |

My JoAnns still hadn’t put it out. So I got tired of waiting and went out and bought a bunch of pinkfresh travel paper embellishments.
Too bad, so sad, JoAnns your loss, you could have had my money but now I’m going to have to stop spending until I get back from my road trip with my DD in May. And after hearing everyone else buying the stuff in sale I’m going to be too cheap to pay $1 each piece, or full price for the pad.

Ack. I spent another $16 there on the new stuff. My third splurge this month. It doesn't seem like so much when I'm buying it a little at a time, but it's adding up. I'm stopping now!

and something else that was cartoony and bright I think that was by Damask Love "Wild Card" (she sells AC stuff on HSN and was on that Amy Poehler "Making It" show), people were going nuts for her paper pad online. It reminded me a bit of the Hot Off The Press stuff I bought years ago. damasklove.com/damask-love-wild-card-everything-you-need-to-know/ |

Fun for whomevers style it is though. ( why do I picture that in a Japanese stationary store ) & sloths on ice cream is weirder than sloths on cacti ( or were those monkeys? ) |

12 year old me would have liked that Maybe it's for people who liked Lisa Frank when they were a kid?  Is it a requirement for every American Crafts line to have a strawberry paper? There are only so many "Berry Cute" pages you can make and I have only gone strawberry picking once. But I know it sold out online immediately. |

I'm feeling so awful right now for the owner of my LSS. I just found out that she ordered all these same lines at Creativation, and now she won't be able to sell any of it because JoAnn's will be undercutting her.
And I've already bought everything I want.
