Yes, I told you I had too much excess scrapbook stuff! I have put MORE stuff up on eBay and let me tell you...if you won an auction of mine last week, you got a STEAL of a deal. Most of my items sold for a measly $1.30 or even $0.99!! Even a custom pre-made 6x6 scrapbook albums sold for only $0.99!! It was painful, but that's the "fun" of eBay. You just never know how much your stuff will sell for. I even had a buyer from the Netherlands! How cool is that!
Well, my question of the week has to do with great deals on scrapbook supplies. I want to hear your best stories. Once, when we lived in Corpus Christi, TX, a local Christian bookstore had been bought out by a big chain and was selling a TON of scrapbook supplies at 75% off. I got 3 albums, lots of alphabet stickers, pens, papers, glue and too much other stuff for about $50.
Then, when we lived in Georgia, the local scrapbook store was closing because the owner had terminal cancer. It was a very sad story, but I did my part to help her sell off her inventory. I think I ended up going to the store 3 times before it closed and got chalks, albums (yes, I had a thing for albums...did you see my auctions??), paper, card stock, eyelets, fibers, brads and more. I don't even remember what I spent, but it was WAY more than I had intended.
Isn't that what sale shopping is about? :o)
I look forward to your replies. Remember, if you win an auction of mine, let me know you are on my mailing list and I'll send a few goodies. Oh, and the fibers I have for sale are my daughter's. She is trying to save up some $$ to buy some clothes for her American Girl doll. She spent all her money on the doll and now she wants clothes for her! I'd appreciate you helping her if you need any fibers. She's in charge of cutting, packing and addressing her orders. It will be a great learning experience for her!
Keep on scrapping...
