Default Score!!! TJMaxx ... AC paper packs

DH and I popped into TJMaxx this morning for something other than SB related.

As we were walking to the checkout, I spied an AC pack of Dear Lizzy Christmas on a bottom shelf and almost kept walking since I bought one last week for $6, but thought I would check in case there was a pack of something different.

I walked out with:
AC Dear Lizzy Spring (48 sheets)
AC Heat Wave (48 sheets)
AC Merrymint (60 sheets)
AC Specialty Damask (48 sheets)
AC Specialty Christmas Foil (30 sheets)

I paid $5.99 per pack...that is 234 sheets of paper for less than 13 cents each (overall).

Along with these packs and what I bought last week...I'll be making kits allllll weekend. I picked up 432 photos from Wolf for 7 cents each. I'm hoping to kit everything and buzz through LOs at an upcoming, 3 day retreat. I'll have a lot leftover for cards.

This was the TJM in Cary, NC and there were more packs left. If you are out and about today, you might want to pop in your store.

WOOOOO!!!! HOOO!!!!

I seen some at the store in Fayetteville a few weeks ago, but resisted the urge to buy any. That is an awesome price.. sounds like you made out like a bandit. great score!

I went back today to pick up the Valentine foil paper I had left behind and guess what they had...

AC Adobe
AC City Park
AC Travel

Oh, my gosh. I just spent a total of $48 for 390 pieces of AC medium and specialty paper. That's over $300 worth of paper. That's 8 pack of paper.

Since I have no way of know how to find what I want, I'm cutting ATC card size of each design and placing them in baseball card sheets in a 3 ring binder. I'll also do that with the 4 stack of other paper I have. That way I can easily look at a pack on a sheet and mix and match.

I went there last night & bought 3 border punches for $3.99 which are Martha Stewart, plus Image Tree clear stamps by EK for $1.49--I did see the paper packs, but I already bought those last time.

I was in Michaels on Tuesday evening with my sisters and these were also on clearance there...the shelf said $7.99 but they all rang up at $4.99. Boy did we all load up on these!
What an awesome deal!
blessings.

I popped in to my TJM again and can't believe there was still AC paper packs left. I bought another Abode for $5.99. I pulled out about 48 pieces that I will use as background pages for an entire album....give a bunch of the patterned paper to a friend who has fiest ware dishes and will love those patterns.

I'm so excited about all the paper at such great prices lately. TJM must have gotten a good deal on outdated AC paper. I love their PP....nice weight.

I also popped in to Joanns to return a damaged punch (they replaced it with no problems...didn't even ask for the receipt)....anyway....check their clearance and they had already marked tomorrows clearance items and bought a stack of Could 9 Seasons paper. 180 sheet for $4.19. These are NOT the cardstock weight. They are heavy paper weight....but some adorable prints to us on some Bazzill backgrounds.

Found a few more bargains today....5 Jolee's $5 title stickers for .99 cents each at Ms. I was so excited. I bought 20 pieces of Bazzill from ACM for 25 cents each. I think I will go back tomorrow to get more.

Bought a Fiskars slide trimmer for crops at Js. They had 40% off tools and a 20% off reg and sale items.

The past two weeks have been great for bargains....NOW, I must scrapbook them all!

I have 10 kits made, so far and 20 more to finish.
