lol, i can picture pillowcases stuffed with stamps and supplies and the family with their own bag of goodies to carry...kinda like the show "it takes a thief"
none. family and pets are way more valuable than my stamps. sorry if you didn't get the answers you wanted. But stamps are replaceable family isn't.

p.s. my albums would go before my stamps ever go. those are non replaceable.

Actually not. Waterproof fire safes are NOT heat proof. Everything inside will melt in a fire. Give a copy of the discs to a friend to store too.
:shock: That's good to know! Thanks!

Hummm, I think I would just open up the window in my craft room and throw out as much as I possibly could before the flames reached me. Well, OK, I would be sure that my kids, DH and bulldog get out first! BUT...if I HAD to pick just 5:
Voila
Bubble Queen
Teriffic Tulips
Best of Cluck
Totally Cool
What can I say, I like the "fun" cards more.

ok, say your house isnt on fire but you have to move to a foriegn country and the customs agents only allows you to take 5 sets of stamps with you....THEN which ones would you choose?
First, I would grab all of my scrapbooks and I mean all of them. I would make my hubby get some too...You can replace a lot of things, you can even replace the pictures, but you can not replace all of that work that you put into them. I should probaqbly start taking pictures and storing them online so that I can recreate them if soemthing happens and I can't get them out...oh how sad!
But the stamp sets that I would bring with me would be (please note that I'm at work and can't log on to check the correct spelling):
Stamp of Authenticity, Office Accourtement, Be Happy, Big Deal Alpha, and Short Order Alpha.
Since the question asks what stamp sets you would save and not "What would you save if your house was on fire" I don't think there is cause for debate here, but I guess debate is always ever present :rolleyes:
Anyway, here are my FIVE FAVS/most-used sets
Little Pieces
Classic Alphabet
Girlfriends
Girlfriend Accessories
Sincere Salutations
I do think it would be smart to pick retired sets b/c the others you can re-buy.
I've fortunately never lost belongings in a fire but I did have a crop-in-style XXL filled with stamp sets and other supplies stolen from the trunk of my minivan before. That happened over 2 years ago and I am still recovering emotionally :(

This is EXACTLY what I was thinking before I saw your comment!! LOL! I have a huge window in my room.... I would throw them out and follow with albums. OF course, that's after my DH and Bud were safe.
My Fav 5 right now are:
Fishin'
Bow Wow
Like It a Latte
What's Brewin
Garden Pleasures
(All Retired and hard to replace!):(
