First was Michael's, because I had to return something. I got Dylusions and Tim Holtz clear stamps (coupon!), a small decorative box (sale!) and a package of wooden letters (clearance!). Then Jo-Ann's because they are in the same plaza, the demons that they are. I got a SHIT TON of punches from them as I had a 25% off total purchase coupon plus the punches were 40% off, plus some stamps and one clearance item. I have a real stamp fetish, especially the clear, cling stamps. I actually save about 40% of what I spent overall so it was a fantastic haul and my punches have a lifetime warranty so if they break the manufacturer replaces it. Then AC Moore was on my way back. I had another coupon for total purchase and I got some basics: stencil, paints, Sharpies and they had their Nicole washi tape on sale so I got some rolls of that. I have a washi tape fetish too and snatch it up when it's on sale, even though I know how to make my own.

Although I buy crafty stuff all the time, yesterday's haul was a major splurge. I do this about 3-4 times a year if it's a good year and the sales work out to my advantage. Watch the holiday ads. They go crazy trying to get people in!

Hobby Lobby is further up the road, but I boycott them due to their politics. Same with Chik fil A, which is in the same plaza that Michael's and Jo-Ann's is and that makes me angry when I see them because I freakin' love their food. Bastids!!!
