steph3306 Posted June 27, 2007 Posted June 27, 2007 I don't know if I put this in the right place but where does everyone get their scrapbook supplies? I am on a tight budget and was wondering if there are any free sites anyone knows about or a place to get cheap supplies. Thanks in advance!!
kselzer Posted June 27, 2007 Posted June 27, 2007 I don't know about any websites, but I get most of my stuff from JoAnn's. Get on their mailing list (fill out the postcard at the store, they are usually at the registers) and get there Sunday ad. Both will usually have 40% off coupons. I use this to buy most of my scrapbook items. They also will put a lot of scrapbooking items on sale for 40%-50% off, just watch the sales. Hobby Lobby is also a good place to shop, they will usually have sales & you can sign up on their website to receive their emails. They send a weekly email and sometimes it will be for 40% off any item, and it will show what is on sale in the scrapbooking area. Every once in a while I find decent stuff at Walmart. Check their craft clearance area too.
cmattison Posted June 27, 2007 Posted June 27, 2007 Our Hancock Fabrics carries scrapbooking supplies. I guess they don't sell much because it will go on clearance quickly and it's usually pretty cheap and different than Hobby Lobby. I also use Ebay. I have been able to find sellers who will deeply discount the shipping prices the more that you buy.
amyers12345 Posted June 27, 2007 Posted June 27, 2007 I love it when hobby lobby runs the 50% off all stickers and paper sale. Makes great prices. Joann's runs good sale prices on stacks of paper, or the coupon works great for those. I have also found that Walmart has a new line of inexpensive things. I like their new chipboard letters. They are about 1/4th the price of other places.
CarpeDiem Posted June 28, 2007 Posted June 28, 2007 I got a wholesale lic and got mine all for cost, now I just have to get on getting rid of it all....
trbarginhunter Posted June 28, 2007 Posted June 28, 2007 depending on what you are looking for, www.memorymiser.com can be a great place to shop. And I love creativexpress.com, especially when they have a clearance sale. Enjoy!
droolbug2 Posted June 30, 2007 Posted June 30, 2007 I've gotten some things at Target on clearance. I've also found things at Michaels.
cfbandit Posted July 1, 2007 Posted July 1, 2007 If you have an Archivers nearby, sign up for their mailing list. You get 5 free sheets of cardstock every couple of months in their newsletter, plus they send additional coupons on the email list. I don't buy anything there without a coupon - too pricey - but some of their clearance sales are *very* good.
amyers12345 Posted July 2, 2007 Posted July 2, 2007 Hobby Lobby is running their sale this week. 50% off on all papers, embellishments, and stickers.
savvyshopper56 Posted July 15, 2007 Posted July 15, 2007 I shop the online store at My Scrapbook Paradise They currently have a code for 20% off your entire purchase- except gift cards. Expires 8-10-07 the code is scrap20

nebraskaparkfan Posted September 18, 2007 Posted September 18, 2007 I get stuff at a local scrapbook store, walmart, target, dollar tree, hobby lobby, michaels and joanns. Online, my favorite stores are scrapbookexpress, frugalities, rockymountainhobbies, apeekintoyesterday, mousememories, scrapyourtrip and a few others. if you get on their mailing lists, they will let you know the specials. I also belong to www.scrap-room.com it is a monthly kit club and is awesome. i get great deals on my kit and a great message board and lots of ideas and sketches.
nebraskaparkfan Posted September 18, 2007 Posted September 18, 2007 forgot to add don't forget to check out goodwill and similar stores. i find great deals on albums stamps and organizers. i buy silk flowers at garage sales and stuff and dismantle them to use on my pages.

nebraskaparkfan Posted October 24, 2007 Posted October 24, 2007 I've started shopping at www.houseofpaper.com and have gotten incredible deals. I think the free shipping starts at $15 orders. i've also ordered recently from scrap-a-latte and scrapbookpal. Scrap-a-latte has great clearance deals as low as 10cents per page and shipping is only 6.25
nat1jen Posted October 29, 2007 Posted October 29, 2007 I have found quite a few items at Costco that have been marked down.
Steakgoddess Posted October 29, 2007 Posted October 29, 2007 There are TONS of scrapbooking sites out there. Frugalities.com dontworrybescrappy.com <--Bazzill for $0.33 rockymountainhobbies.com<---love the clearance section lifetimemoments.com<--another good clearance section oriental trading sells scrapbooking products, too!
mscrapper Posted November 3, 2007 Posted November 3, 2007 www.frugalities.com is a really good one. They have a different discount every day. I happened to catch it at 49% off and i ordered a tag maker for arounf $12 and it is usually over $25. Shipping is based on how much you spend, so that can get a little costly but it was fast.
Princess7915 Posted November 3, 2007 Posted November 3, 2007 WWW.ScrapYourTrip.com is great. They have lots of stuff especially if you don't have a lot of specialty stores in your area. They a have a really good clearance section too.
kati1969 Posted November 3, 2007 Posted November 3, 2007 If you happen to live near a Flower Factory they have a great selectin of just about everything at terrific prices.
JustJules Posted November 3, 2007 Posted November 3, 2007 Wal Mart`s are getting rid of all fabric & scrapbooking. I did get alot of things around 75% off, when they did this. I get alot of my things on ebay. Have the best sales. I make cards too and have so many places that even Big R had some scrapbooking papers about the farms.
khuddle Posted November 4, 2007 Posted November 4, 2007 www.ktcrafts.com has some great deals and often has a good sale going on.
trbarginhunter Posted November 4, 2007 Posted November 4, 2007 I was at Big Lots yesterday and got Paper Bouquet paper paks for $1 each...and just the right shade of blue, too. They also had a lot of brads, ribbons, Rob and Bob stuff, and a variety of stickers.
