Complaint! (not really!)

[asiverson]

Okay, I have a complaint of sorts. Every time I make up my mind to not get any more supplies Paper Wishes and HOTP come out with something I just have to have! The dazzles package in the last webisode comes to mind, as does the Zoo finished in a flash package (as well as just about everything else here!). Alright, I'm a glutton for punishment, keep bringing these great products and ideas on. I'm ready for you!

There is so much cool stuff they have that I want, I don't even try restraining myself! Especially when Mom's sale comes around! lol

[Dee_Dee]

LOL! Tell me about it, Annette! It's a basic occupational habit!

[fabyon]

I don't know what's more fun: buying stash making your credit card groan or paper crafting ? lol

[love2scrap]

LOL, Fabryon LOL!!! So true.

I keep telling myself to stop buying. Right now, stocking up on Cricut carts is my addiction (oops, I mean, no, addiction is the right word;). Someone stop me.:)

[Irishlady]

I keep looking through my PW catalog marking more & more things to buy. Have to watch the budget right now so I'm trying to pick out the most wanted items. Only thing is, I can't decide what I have to have first. I need to win the Power Ball lottery. Or have a rich relative die & leave me a fortune. Judi

Fab - Okay, making my c/c groan isn't all that fun, but buying, hoarding and papercrafting, yesiree bob! Annette

[JodiSong]

I try to only use my debit card, that way I'm FORCED to stay in budget. Then only my hubby groans.

So, my plan is to get rich on songwriting royalties, then build that addition to house all my crafting, sewing, needlework, and scrapbooking. There are a lot more things I'd rather do with a dollar than play the lottery.

Who are we kidding with the Paper Wishes Catalogue .....my advice is just write in big red letter on the cover 'WISH LIST' and then we can get on with it ! LOL You know I actually collect them and put them in a binder. I know it's an illness, I'm telling you.

[Melanie]

Hey Fab, Heather and I also save the old PW catalogs, as they have all those wonderful ideas in them!

Ya gotta keep the stash built up! It's like my mom used to say, if you don't buy it today, you won't be able to find it tomorrow. Besides, I'm saving stash for my retirement too! :D Yep, that's it!

[JodiSong]

I keep 'em for the layout ideas.

[Heather]

Yep, same here. Love saving them for ideas. Got very mad at the bad kitty who once destroyed one of them. I tell ya, I love my kitties, but sometimes they can be soooo bad!

[asiverson]

I keep my catalogs for the ideas too (ha ha!). And Heather, I'm doing the same thing, saving/stashing for my retirement! My DH will absolutely love that idea!

God bless

Oh look what landed on my doormat today ! Summer catalogue and was well impressed with no plastic covering, very very eco-friendly. I like that the catalogue was kept closed by two plastic round tags. Like we get in the pads, you know the adhesive circles. Anyhoo I haven't had a proper look at it but I love it already, whizz through a few pages...LOL

I saw a signature the other day can't remember where that made laugh, it said something among the lines ' May we live long enough to use all of our stash' ! So very true ! Also don't forget in 20 years time prices will go up so for saving for the future really ! wink

[asiverson]

Oooh, I love the ideas, saving stash for my retirement by hoarding it and by buying at today's prices! LOL! Now, can I convince DH of the same!

Annette

[asiverson]

You know, I was just over on pw.com and I must say, their prices are really very reasonable. Such a HUGE selection, terrific product, great ideas on how to use your purchases, and good pricing. Not bad at all!

Annette

[Heather]

' May we live long enough to use all of our stash' !

Oh I like that one! :D

[pattylt]

I think I'd say, "May we live long enough to use all our scrappin' stash." That way it doesn't sound like we have marijuana in the back closet somewhere. At least that is what a stash meant back when I was in college (a loooong time ago).:rolleyes:

[kasiahbug]

Or just leave it and let everyone wonder :)

[Irishlady]

Fab, I save the PW catalogs also. They have all those great ideas in them. Judi

[Dee_Dee]

I'm an old pack-rat who has no room, but loads of mags, catalogues, and "stuff". I still have my decorative-edge scissors, eyelet-setters and doodads my high-school kids brought home when they were in elementary school and I put away somewhere becomes someday I just know they'll embellish a scrapbook page. Don't ask about the paper piles.

[asiverson]

I just saw a quote on another MB, and I may be paraphrasing a bit, "I can't die yet, I still have stash left!" Maybe it will actually keep us alive; I know I feel happy and energetic when I'm around it.....
Oh, and maybe we should take Patty's advice and refer to it as scrapping stash so people won't think we're addicted to something else!

Dee Dee, a lot of our family are pack rats. You really don't want to know about our paper piles...

Ummm... "our?" It's mostly Dads paper piles. http://bestsmileys.com/lol/4.gif
And with pack rats on both sides of the family, we are doomed!
