Freebies & Sales May 30, 08

First, thanks Breeoxd & Jill for leaving a comment :) Jill, a CT (Creative Team) is like DET in DSP - we create & post LOs in exchange for free kits :)

Hehe, I'm no longer in pain because the sweetest hubby in the world (well, sometimes :D) came to the rescue. After about a week of ZERO shopping, Amanda Rockwell's Back in Black Collection of 6 kits for only $1 was the straw that broke THIS camel's back so I asked Colin if he would mind going out to pay $50 first into my CC. I'm lucky enough to have a guy who totally understands "It's a SALE!" (which is also why we're constantly broke!) but I forgot that tomorrow's a public holiday here so there's no way the payment would be processed in time. He then offered his CC (which since he's not as much the spendthrift I am actually still has funds in it) so yay, I get to shop!! well, a teensy weensy bit :D

Sales/Shopping:

Scrapartist $1 Friday: https://www.scrapartist.com/shoppe/home.php?cat=23

I'm of course getting the Back in Black Collection & probably also Aja Abney's Altered Art in a Box. In 'normal' times, I might've also considered Cori Gammon's bracket album (I LOVE albums, esp the $1 and freebie ones :D) but will have to pass now. Similarly for Bohemian's Art (no pic) Jungle kit - I'd been eyeing it ever since they were at Scrapladies but I already have 4 zoo kits and we don't even have any zoos here!

I also snatched up RYD's Tickets which I mentioned earlier and L Bratcher's Stitched Alpha at FPD and planning on getting ON's Grabbag at SBG: http://scrapbookgraphics.com/xcart/product.php?productid=21185

A couple other good deals: DSP's 99ct IOTW for this week (ends Sun): http://store.digitalscrapbookplace.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=8248 and I like this Scalloped Album at PDW's $2 Fave Fridays: http://www.plaindigitalwrapper.com/shoppe/home.php?cat=20.
