Oh. My. Goodness!
The warehouse portion open to the public wasn't
as large as it might be in the future, but was still larger than their
flagship store.
What did they have? What not, indeed?
12x12 sheets @ 3/$1.00, including some Graphic 45 papers... Most of these run between $1.00- 1.50 each in the store.
An
area with assorted size papers and envelopes. Pick up an extra large
20x20 inch Ziplock bag, and as long as the papers fit and the bag zips,
pay $3.00 total.
Sticker and chipboard packages, varied between $0.25 and $.75 each pack.
Small tags regular price...about $2.50 for less than 20, today's find, 100 tags for $0.50.
Ribbons for $.25 per roll.
A sealing wax monogram stamp, something I've search the world over, (well, for awhile, anyway) all of $2.00
Christmas, Easter, and Halloween decor... way, way cheap!
Little decorations to spice up the home decor... even less than cheap.
I
bought everything that I wanted and could possible use, but despite
that, I barely put a dent into any of the inventory. I came out with a
goodly sized box (estimated at 12x12x24) almost filled to the top with
paper, and a large reusable cloth bag... stuffed and overflowing.
This
was the very first day the warehouse was open to the public. The
everything 75% sale ends Friday. They are thinking of opening the
warehouse a couple of days each week, but prices will only be cut to
50%. Even so, this
delights my treasure hunt obsession.
Oh, did I mention everything brought home cost right at $60? Oh, yeah! Not the $240 the supplies would have cost full price.
Now,
whew, I have to find a way to organize all the new paper from the
fill-it and seal-it bag; the goods there had six different sizes, not
including the tags. Ye-haw!!!
