I haven't been in Tuesday Morning for quite a while, but went today and wow — their crafting section has so many goodies!
Today I saw Spellbinders dies, Tim Holtz Movers and Shapers dies, Tim Holtz Ideology embellishments, a Sizzix letterpress plate (darn, I should've got that), assorted Dyan Reaveley WM rubber stamps, Tattered Angels Glimmer Mists, crafting foil, 6x6 paper pads, ATC and Project Life cards, non-skid rulers, paintbrushes...I got a folding cordless Ott light for $20!
My local store gets its deliveries on Thursdays and I'm definitely going back!
Congrats on all your cool finds! I have yet to find anything like you mentioned at our local Tuesday Morning. However I did find a Tim Holtz trinket box a ways back which is a neat decorative piece.
Thanks for reminding me about Tuesday Morning. There is one not too far from my house, but I tend to forget to go there. I used to be on their mailing list, but haven't heard from them lately.
About a year ago, I found a Big Kick there for only $20! And some really good deals on packs of cardstock.

I was on a marathon shopping day yesterday and popped in to TM and also found 3 Tim Holtz dies, some stickles, wooden embellishments, and great bag of gold buttons. It was the first time in quite some time I found some good stamping items. Yea!
It is one of my favorite stores and I am lucky to have 2 stores close by. I recently purchased embossing folders for 99 cents to 2.99 depending on brand (Darice, Momenta, Tim Holtz), spellbinder dies, lots of paper packs and pads, stickles, buttons and so much more!
So I put much of it back, ha, but I got two packs of Spellbinders Media Mixage dies (so great, $3.99 each) two beautiful modern fall themed 6 x 6 paper stacks by American Crafts, the Ott light and cool Tim Holtz Ideology paper tape. And I've already used all of this stuff, too!

I like to look at the Tuesday Morning haul videos from DeesSpecialThings on YouTube. If the store gets in something new for stamping, crafting, or scrapping she seems to buy it. (Don't know how in the world she manages to organize and store all she buys!)
I have to tell you, I am cracking up!! I cant believe people make videos of stuff they bought. Why? What am I missing? I dont have time to watch those! I'd rather be shopping myself!
This isnt a slam on Dee...she isnt the only one doing it. Maybe she has a thing with her bloggies.

Last year I was in a boot for 10 weeks due to an ankle injury. Needless to say I was told not to do a lot of walking on it. There were many days I spent watching Youtube videos. I watched many videos which included things people would buy at shows. My all time favorite videos were from some woman who would go dumpster diving behind Michaels after it was closed. These were a hoot. What I have to ask is what possesses people to spend so much time making videos and uploading them.
I love Tuesday Morning stores! Not only do they have WONDERFUL crafting supplies (but they are usually older over-runs), they have wonderful kitchen ware and gadgets, glassware, dinnerware, cooking supplies, rugs, furniture,, garden....and pet supplies. Puzzles, toys, and sometimes clothing, shoes, lamps, towels, sheets, and bathroom d�cor, etc. It seems to be a surplus store, and originally it was only open on Tuesdays! I am luck to have several in my area!! (St Louis). I do LOVE this store! I bought my Corner Chomper here, and some 7 Gypsies paper, some Tim Holtz dies and spellbinders this weekend too. I needed some BOY Designer Paper last weekend and found a nice thick pad of super cute boy papers. FUN finds, and I usually hit this store when I am out and about on weekends!!

Oh that lady could drive me a little nuts! Not generally a fan of haul videos (I sure don't need an excuse to shop) but I did happen to see one that made me remember Tuesday Morning again. She didn't call out all of the SKUs :mad: but she did have great ideas for how she was going to use a lot of the stuff, which is really useful.
But all that stuff from just one shopping trip generally makes me anxious!
I love Tuesday morning! Not too long ago I posted about a bunch of Martha Stewart stickers I was able to get there for $.99 each and some where ones that would be $3-4 dollars at the regular craft store. I can usually always find something there to add to my stash, it's hard to pass up the bargains! I even found my Sizzix Bigkick there almost two years ago for like $30 dollars!
I finally was able to stop into a local Tuesday Morning. The funny thing was I went there to look for a hot/cold food tote that I saw advertised. Unfortunately they were already gone. The bright side I found some goodies in the craft area. I came out with DCWV paper stacks, Spellbinders dies, a Sizzix tombstone die, and a couple of other crafty things. I also found some cool baking tools.
We're moving soon to northern Idaho & I can't wait to check out Tuesday Morning and some other stores not currently in Montana or so far away I never get to visit them!
You hooked me in - I just popped in the TM up the road to get some paper for an upcoming video. I managed to get out with just two 12" paper pads, a 5x7" embossing folder and a large stencil, but there were lots of Spellbinders dies (the smaller jewelry sets) and quite a variety of other supplies mentioned above.
First love Tuesday morning. Can always find something there.
I love love to watch room tours on eBay but I don't like any haul video - I find the hauls so boring and all I would think is why can't I buy that stuff ??
Dumpster diving behind michaels ??? Why did I never think of that. Now to find a buddy to go diving .....

Went back today and scored more fantastic stuff! A large filigree heart Sizzlets die by Scrappy Cat (retail $19.99, TM 8.99), an Ink-its letterpress plate ( the one I really wanted, $2.99) and a Tim Holtz Alterations border die ($6.99) plus Spellbinders Media Mixage thick cotton rag 100# paper, iridescent metallic paper, and an ephemera pack for $1.99 each.
They had tons of Tim Holtz border dies and embossing folders this time, and a cool pack of 12x12 Studio Calico Christmas paper. I'm sorry if I'm enabling :-) but the prices on the Tim Holtz steel rule dies alone are incredible. I will definitely be checking regularly!

I am totally happy for you! I have to lay off buying anything for a while due to everything I purchased in the last 2 weeks.
Last time I was in a TM store a few weeks ago another lady walked up right after I did and grabbed up all the dies before I had a chance to look at them. Since she probably does that on a regular basis, she knew exactly where they were. Not that I needed or have the $$ to spend on more stuff but curiosity is killing me not knowing what I missed out on. I just know that elusive must have that I needed was in her cart.

grrr!!!
Maddening! I'll bet they were going right up on eBay. Guess they don't have a limit because they want the stuff gone. Because I know where the dies are in my local store now, I go right to that section and flip through quickly with shaking fingers ;)
Definitely find out when your store gets their deliveries and go soon after (on a weekday, maybe? teehee). There was a lot more stuff out at my store just two weeks later.
A good friend of mine went to two TMs and bought me a bunch of Stickles, both loose and the more typical glitter glue types. They also had distressed Stickles, which I've never used.
It was during the day and middle of the week, lol. They aren't close to me so it's not convenient to drop by, I happened to be in the area and decided to take a quick look. Oh well it saved me $$$...
I finally got a chance to go to Tuesday Morning this week. I got out really cheap - all I found was an embossing folder in a chicken wire pattern for $1.99.
That is not like me to walk out with only one thing!

I was out with my daughter and stopped in again today... I was going to get some of the Mixage dies with matching bezels, but decided I didn't need them - ended up with 2 sets of Spellbinders dies (Snowflake Bliss and the 2012 Heirloom Ornaments) and some Tattered Angels snowflake masks.
I'm loving those Mixage dies! When I went back, I found a pad of Sizzix ephemera sheets with lots of designs, that match the dies exactly — all I need are the bezels, which my Tuesday Morning didn't have lol
I almost got the circle dies, just because they're so teeny. Hmm... *sigh*
I got the heart set, and the set of three squares with rounded corners. I'm finding so many uses for them! If I go back, I'll probably get the pennant shapes and the diamond shapes if they are still there� I already have similar sized circles in my Little B nested circle die set so I resisted those
When I went this past week - literally a lady had just put a few spellbinders dies in her cart ( if only I had walked into store 5 min earlier!!!). The remaining ones were ones I didn't want. Sooooo being a good little shopper I drove to the next Tuesday morning and guess what - all the spellbinder ones were Christmas ones ( which I don't want). So the moral is ... What is in another persons cart is stuff not worth even thinking about ...( at least that's what I tell myself).
I don't know what mixage is. But they had Darice dies
