Kathy,

At Cutters Creek there is a great bundle for $375.

It includes

• Expression machine
• Plantin Schoolbook cartridge
• Accent Essentials cartridge
• A third cartridge of your choice
• Design Studio software
• ONE 12x12 mat

Click the Specials link to see this bundle. Sign up to be a member and then wait for your membership to be activated so that you see two prices (the regular retail and the members' price). When you check out, use the coupon code of KIMSFRIENDS to save an additional $5. (The coupon code is good on any order over $20.) At Cutters Creek, any order over $10 has free shipping with the exception of the machines ($20 shipping). The mats are very inexpensive here too. The 12x12 mats are only $7.14 for a set of two and the 12x24 mats are only $9.34. (At one of the local stores they are $12.99 and $16.99 respectively.)

Another place to check is ACMoore.com. For $368.99 plus $5 shipping you get:

• Expression machine
• Plantin Schoolbook cartridge
• Accent Essentials cartridge
• Locker Talk cartridge
• Cuttin' Up cartridge
• Set of the markers (you use this to draw the image instead of cut)
• ONE 12x12 mat

If you have an AC Moore store NEAR you, the bundles goes on sale sometimes for only $319.99.

Deals are out there if you look. I bought a brand new Expression machine that came with just the Plantin Schoolbook cartridge for $235 including shipping from someone at the Cricut.com message boards. (I already had the Accent Essentials cartridge.)

I forgot to mention that at Cutters Creek, the price of the unbundled Expression machine is only $289.99 (plus the shipping charge). It comes with the machine, Plantin Schoolbook cartridge, Accent Essentials cartridge and the one 12x12 mat.

This means that they haven't "activated" your membership yet. Once your membership is activated, you will see two prices. (The activation is done by hand and the owner is currently traveling home from visiting her daughter so this might not be done until maybe this evening.) Or you could send them an email at [email protected]. The owner and her daughter both receive this email and they check it quite frequently.
