I made out like a bandit again!

Did I ever tell you guys how I love Tuesday Morning? There are two near me. One is on a busy road, and that one gets picked clean pretty quick. The other one is in a tiny strip center right in the middle of a residential neighborhood and gets very little traffic. I almost always do well when I shop at that one. Here's what I got:

Martha Stewart punches $2.99 a piece!!! The border punch was $3.99

Fiskars border punch $5.99 (sorry the photo is so dark- If I use a direct flash it bounces off the plastic)

Autumn Leaves stamp set "Gypsy Style" $3.99 They had about 7 or 8 different styles, but I was very strict with myself. I didn't think I could use the other ones, but it was still hard to pass up for that price!

Tim Holtz Grungeboard. These came as a two pack for $7.99 . UNBELIEVABLE! I was so happy I bought quite a few. If you don't know what it is, it's basically flexible chipboard. The sheets make awesome mini book bindings.


Just the alpha pack retails for$20 at Michaels!

Oh you LUCKY girl, Tanya! You did make out like a bandit! Love the punches, but I am jealous of the grungeboard. I LOVE Tim's grungeboard!! It is awesome and love playing with it.

Have FUN creating. I wish I had a "Tuesday Morning" near me.

Have a great day.

You found some great deals. I was at our Tues Morning store on Sat and didn't find as much

Wow Looks like a great shopping trip! Those punches were a great score.

Great finds! I'm not near a Tuesday Morning so my wallet is safe for now :)

You are so lucky. We don't have one of those stores here, actually I have never heard of one.
But boy I wish we did.

Wish I could've been there. Let me just say that in Sweden you can't find anything for those prices. Not when it comes to craftinggoodies as they are imported from the US. You should buy some extra and sell on ebay :)
When it comes to photographing I got a good tip: use a coffeefilter (or similar. I use a iron on fabric) over the flash and photograph with a flash. The filter takes away the worst of the white light. You might need to fold the filter a couple of times.

Oh my... thank you for posting this. I went to my local Tuesday Morning and found some awesome deals on MS punches and Edgers and the Grunge Board and some Ranger stamp pads.. oh my. I would have never thought to check them out for supplies.

Thanks for posting the suggestion.
