Default new Fall/Halloween $1 stamps

I couldn't believe it when I walked into Michaels and found these new $1 stamps and they are not made by Studio G...They are from the Recollections collections. But same concept. I just wanted to share and be the enabler for you stampers. I think I am missing one because there should be 24...

Plus they had new Christmas stamps (wood blocks) too.

Enjoy!

I check my Michaels all the time and they NEVER have new $1.00 stamps. It's been almost a year. I also check Michaels in two other cities and haven't had much luck there either. These are awesome finds and there are quite a few I'd buy....oh well. Maybe next time I visit they will be there!

My Michaels still has a graduation stamp that says "2005" in the dollar bin. Does that say it all about the selection at the store for dollar stamps!

I was going to say, "She must live in Louisville," because the same is true here. Plus the regular stamp aisle is :PPPPPP

Grrr...There's never good $1 stamps at my Mikes! They also still have the CO 2005 and LOTS of them! (You would think they'd want the inventory space so they would just put them on clearance already.)
I was just there for a Back to School event with my DD today and I def. checked the whole place out and there was nothing new.
There is another Mikes locally that sometimes is a little more ahead of the times so maybe I'll check that one out.

Also, the two Christmas stamps you bought, they were also $1? They seem larger than the standard Studio G...? I've purchased other "Recollection" stamps at Mikes in the $1 before, too and I was impressed by them.

The Christmas stamps were not $1...they are regular priced by Stampendous and were found on the end caps. I just happened to have 2 half off coupons and used them. I paid $4 each for them...We dont have the Studio G Christmas stamps yet.

Ahh Gotcha! I misread. Thanks for clarifying. We don't have any new ANYTHING yet. lol
I don't need any of the Halloween stamps because I just bought up all the new Joanns Studio G's. And I don't even make Halloween cards (yet). lol But some of these are too cute to pass up and I have a 25% off your entire purchase coupon for tomorrow, too! Yippee! Hopefully my Mike's has them!

Well, I checked one of the two Mike's in my area yesterday and they didn't have the new $1 stamps...YET! The clerk didn't know when it's comin' in so I'll just have to keep stalking the store..hehe. I need to stalk the other Mike's too..just in case.

Oh! I love that owl stamp!!! My Michael's hasn't gotten new stamps since summer. They still have the swim suit stamps and such.

Maybe they'll get these soon as they're super cute! Thanks for sharing!!

The regular Michaels haven't had anything new like this, but last Friday I went to a new Michaels "concept" store, and they had these and a ton of other stuff I'd never seen at the Michaels nearer to me.

I got a few of the Halloween stamps. The little mummy is my favorite.

My M's also rarely has anything new...not before all the M's in the 50 states have been updated! I hope they get these stamps - I like the fall leaves border stamp. It would look so pretty!

I think there's some Studio G stuff that Michael's won't get - - you can check out this site - - there's Halloween/Fall/Christmas Studio G cards, inks, glitter glue, and of course - - stamps. ;)

Rats!!! Was in town with DH yesterday and he asked me if I wanted to stop at Michaels and I said no...ARRGH! Chances that any of these stamps would have been there is slim to none, but at least I wouldn't wonder if they are, LOL.

I saw a bunch of those Fall/Halloween stamps in the $1.99 bin at Archiver's. They were pretty cute!

I picked up about five of the new Halloween stamps when I was in Mike's the other day. The one I really thought was cute was the clothes line.

Wow, these stamps go fast. I did find about five of the fall/Halloween stamps yesterday (Aug. 29) at the Michael's I go to that is an hour away to the north of me. It didn't look like they had ANY new ones and I asked a clerk and she said they did have some. I dug and found a few. Then today I was two hours south in a bigger city and they did have a better selection. I did not see either place the three row of three maple leaves, the mummy, the pumpkin with leaves and five others. Out of two stores I decided on eight stamps. Wow, it's a lot of work finding these any more. It used to be that they always had new ones. Maybe they just go really fast!

My favorite is the two little angels. Our Michaels didn't have that one,but, they had the Halloween. Maybe they will get the Christmas one's a bit later. Keeping my fingers crossed.

My Michaels had two full bins of all these Halloween/Fall stamps. I got a few of the ones that were not Halloween but more fall type. The squirrel and the acorn are so cute.

Thanks for sharing!

Joann's has a few Fall clear stamps that I found today, though that may be old news. My Joann's is the biggest in our city and tends to sell out of those things within hours of their arrival so this is likely a restock.

I was at Michaels and saw them a few weeks ago. I got the Mummy and the Tombstone ones. They really caught my eye!

According to my husband, it's not a great bargain if you just let them sit and not them...little does he know!

I saw that too. I am trying to be a good girl and not buy any stamps for awhile. Trying to stick to a budget and use what I have...plus the digital ones come in handy.
