hey everyone! I was at my local Costco today in the Waltham, MA area and found this great Scrapbook set...it was HUGE!! I looked at all the stuff in it, and I'm thinking...this has got to be like $40-$50?? So I looked, and then looked...and then saw...it was only $14.96!!!! WOAH!!!! I scooped one right up and couldn't get over the price. Even the cashier was surprised. The set has LOTS of stuff including 2 albums, Primas, Chipboard, Brads, Eyelets, an entire CUTE Alphabet Stamp Set, 12x12 Album, Ribbon, Other embellishments and more. I took pics so that you guys can all see what it looks like in case you want to look for it at your local store! Even if I only use HALF of this stuff, it's still a STEAL!!
You got a great deal. Mine has not had them since Christmas and They were $40. If there were not many they may have been returned Items. Way to go I wish someone would return one to my store! :mrgreen:
That's quite a haul for the money!! My Costco does not have this at all. They had huge rolls of wired ribbon and a crop a dile set. That's it. Just as well...

holy smokes i am going to try to make it over there today I have to be in Billerica tonight anyway! Thanks for the alert
I actually live in Billerica :-D
I work in Waltham though. So Costco is a great lunchtime stop for me. How weird is it that I don't go there too often, and the one time I do, I find this? The cashier said when they arrived, these sets were originally being sold at $60 - I've seen some of you say you got one for $40 - wow, they must really be trying to push them through for $15!
My hubby was so proud of my deal. I tried to tell him: "SEE...I can get really GREAT deals on craft supplies!" haha! now if only I was always this thrifty...
Gonna have to check my store here in Canada - I highly doubt they have them, but worth a look at that price for sure. thanks for the pics - that will definatley help in finding them!
What section of the store did you find this in? I only have BJs here but I'm wondering if they would sell something like this.
I found them in the office supply section...not in the aisle but more along the side wall of the store. There were quite a few left, I'd say about 10 or so.
So far the albums seem to be decent quality...they have a suede-like finish on the outside covers.
My husband is there now and said they are all out! Some lucky SCS must have gotten there today and cleared them out. :( Thanks for the heads up though!
That is awesome.........I think I need to make a run to the Waltham Costco this weekend.
Save yourself a trip! As I posted above, they are out. They said someone came in earlier and bought them all! :( I am so sad. I was so excited that my husband was flying up there on business today and he could get me one in each color (it was a small consolation for me being left behind while he got to visit all our family - we come from Waltham). Now I am just alone and sad and feeling sorry for myself! :mrgreen: Sorry, the weather here is getting to me!
I'll check the Nashua Cosco this weekend. If they have them at that price, I'll pick some up. I didn't end up getting to Waltham last night cause the Wildtree Tasting went late :( , but from what you said I didn't miss anything so thats ok.
Its sunny and beautiful here in Mass today! Whoo hoo another day with no rain.

I'm going to check my Costco and if I don't find any papercrafting deals, buy one of those ginormous apple pies to get me through the disappointment! :mrgreen:
I have only a very small Costco and since this was a Christmas item, I am sure mine won't have any at all! However, they do have a pink handled Crop-o-dile with all these eyelets and huge rivets for $25 right now, that is a pretty good deal, right?
