I found one at my local AC Moore..and was wondering if there was really any difference between it and the BS? I could use a 50% off coupon bring it to almost $50...so that would be fantastic. Just wondering if I should order the BG on line ( as they don't have those?? I called ahead)...I understand the BK is bigger..but to what degree? It can cut the same materials correct??
No difference? Not even in weight? I love my Big Shot and was thinking of buying something as a back up. I paid $100 for mine a year or two ago, but would use a 55% off on the 19th if it's really the same as the BS.
I was so irritated today. They only had one left..and it had been returned b/c there was "something" wrong with it..wasn't even supposed to be on the shelf. This store couldn't order one for me either.. I will just order it from Oh my Crafts..kind of aggravated as I was hoping to play..and I am sick anyway and made a special trip 45 mins away to BUY THE DARN THING..I have a fever..but I was a dedicated crafter today I tell ya. On-line for me...

I'm sorry you drove all that way for nothing....Do you have a Michaels nearby? They carry them too and they take each others coupons. I use my ACM coupons at Michaels all the time because they are usually 50%...
I bought my BigKick almost 8 years ago now, from Joann with a 50% off coupon. It still worked perfectly....that thing is a WORKHORSE! And I work it hard too, doing hundreds of cuts a day quite often....and it is still going and going! I hope you can find one cheap online - so sorry you went all that way for nothing!
I bought my Vintaj Big Kick from Hobby Lobby this past summer and used a 40% off coupon, which made it $59.99 instead of $99.99. I bought it because it was "purty" and I liked the paint job. They had the periwinkle and black Big Shot for the same price and I could have used the coupon on it, but went with the Vintaj instead.
In reading and "talking" on other threads, I've learned that the only difference is my Vintaj came with a 13" Solo Platform and two 8 1/2 X 6 in clear plates. I had to purchase a "Solo Thin Die Adapter" in order to be able to use Nestabilities in my Big Kick.
There is a M's but it is only 5 mins. away from the AC Moore..so more hassle than I want to fool with LOL. I am in a huge slump right now and have kind of just given up on one at the moment...but thanks for all the great replies..
