I just placed a $65 order with Scrapbook.com! I am making a scrapbook for my mom...actually it will be kind of an ABC book about her...

Scrapbooking is a very pricey hobby! I spent $20 on an album (with a 40% off coupon from Michaels), $8 (Making Memories) eyelets, $18 (Making Memories) tool kit, $10 on The Slab III paper....and I still have a couple more things left to buy! So it's already $100+ spent! Eek!

I sure am glad that my darling GeGe is an engineer!

Today we went to Walmart to purchase some food stuffs. I just happened to go by the office supply section and there were scrapbook albums for $5!! Yes, $5!! 12x12 albums! Needless to say, I purchased 4 of them...what a deal!

Last week I purchased an album I am making for my mother for $20...and I am definitely glad that I found an even better deal at Walmart. Go figure. I had hoped there would be more designs, but unfortunately not. Oh well, you still can't beat a 12x12 album for $5!

I found ANOTHER bargain yesterday! I have been doing some researching and everyone talks about how much they love Xyron for scrapbooking. Well, I went out with GeGe to browse some stores and we stopped by a Target in another area. I went into the scrapbook section and found Xyron 505 maching for $14.98! Original price is $29.99...an even better deal than using the 40% coupon from Michaels! I picked up the adhesive & lamintor cartridges for $7.48...I think they are originally like $12. Woohoo!

I've oficially started my mom's scrapbook...I have high hopes for this one!
