If you really do have everything you can always use things like tape and refills for the xyron if you have one. If you don't have a xyron they are great.
I also have a gift card to use, but since I'm not able to move around just yet, I'm having my DH pick up some stuff for me today. I feel kind of bad since he's the one who got me the gift card. On my list are glue dots, stazon cleaner, zip dry glue and MS 18"x18" matching CS & DP (purple). After going to Michael's for over 5 years...it's all about restocking supplies. Unless they have something new out, then I wait for a coupon. I would just make a list of any supplies you're low on and pick some up. If anything, it's always nice just to browse and sip some starbucks.

I've been eyeing a very cool Martha Stewart glitter collection. I think it's small vials of about 20 colors -- goes for $24.99 which would be a great deal if you could use a coupon!

I'm right there with you. I got a $50 gift card. Usually Michael's has next to nothing that I don't already own. So I just figure I'll use it to replace my basics (mono refills, glue dots, trimmer blades, etc) plus a new magazine or two.
If you don't already have prismacolor pencils you could do those (that's what I did with my gift card last year).
I have $75.00 to spend - but I will probably wait till the new goodies are put out - all the Christmas mdse gone to see what is new out there that I must have!! ............
Oh jumpin figs, I was just at our Mikes today and if I'd had a fifty dollar gift card, I would have picked up some:
-Basic Grey stamp sets, brad sets, etc; looks like they brought in groups of cool stuff for holiday gift giving, now on clearance
-SEI anything and everything, again they brought in a bunch of new stuff only for the holidays cos it's all on clearance now
-some of the MM organising stuff, like the spinning carousels (both round and cube), the storage stadium, the organising cubes
-some more of the wood-mounted dollar stamps by Studio G; I usually avoid WM stamps even from the dollar bin, but they had in a bunch of new cool designs and phrases!
Just got back from Michaels and as far as anything papercrafting related it had been picked clean... the only thing I got was some K&Co paper and used my 50% coupon. Nothing that I wanted was left in the clearance.

By any chance did you notice if they had the new K&Co Valentine Line? I think it is called "Smitten"....
thanks~

You can always buy something for storage...really cute totes, baskets, etc. for scrapbooking! Or trimmer blades! You could use the gift card for a new magazine...but you can't get a % off of those...
Think ahead for Valentine's Day...and get heart stickers, etc...
If you have a cuttlebug, get a new diecut or embossing folder for that...
Just a few thoughts...
Oh! Sorry I duplicated some ideas above...duh, Teena!
If all else fails, get a scrapbook, or page protectors, or some of those folded cards you just embellish and send...Don't forget to look in the bridal section for things that can be stamped...or used as embeliishments on a scrapbook page...
How about a new DVD for your computer about scrapbooking?
Go to the yarn section and think embellishment!

I am thinking ribbon. I don't remember the ribbon in the store since it's in another section.. good thought!
I'll have to go in w/out the little darlings so I can think and not have to keep my eye on them. Wonder if I can talk mother in law into coming over and watch them hmmmm
Got a $15 Michaels Gift Card and 50% off coupon.. what should I get? I am seriously
