Sizzix Texture Boutique at Michael's for $9.99!!!!

I woke up today determined to buy my embosser machine. I saw the Texture Boutique on eBay for $33.95, not including shipping. So I figured I will buy it at Michael's with my 50% off coupon. I tried my Michael's they didn't have it, tried 2 other stores, they didn't have it either. But at the 3rd store I found the price ticket still on the rack. It was clearanced at $9.99!!! Can you believe it!!! I peeled the ticket with the sku number, I took it to customer care and the lovely Eva called the local stores for me. After calling three stores and no luck, the fourth store had one. I bought the last one!!!

I figured since it was a clearance item they wouldn't take my coupon, so I bought a lavender mailbox, I thought I would decorate for V-Day. When the cashier scanned the coupon it took $5 off the Sizzix!! Tell me how cool was that!!! Unfortunately, she dropped the mailbox and it got bent. BUT THAT'S ALRIGHT BY ME!! I GOT MY EMBOSSER FOR $5!!

It came with 10 bonus embossing folders. I was leaning towards the Cuttlebug, but it was too much for me, besides I have my Cricut for all my cuts, I didn't need another die cutter. I also made up my mind after going back to an older post over at My Cricut Scrapbooking. {Please note her contest is an old post and is now closed}

And it gets better, I get home to find I was a lucky winner of a cookbook over at Lindsey’s Craft List!!! My husband will be so happy!! Saved him a few bucks and I won him a cookbook!!! {I do little cooking.}

Yay for you! Isn't it fun getting deals like that? Things like that can make my whole day! It's not the money, it's the CONQUEST! LOL! :) And $5??? Would be a good price JUST for the FOLDERS!

And I thought I had gotten a deal on mine at $10 using a 50% off coupon!!! That was a steal! I have only used mine once, but it is so very cute sitting on my desk. I can't wait to see what you do with it -- you always have such beautiful creations.

Thanks for always leaving me such sweet comments on my blog at lilcabininthewoods.blogspot.com. You are the greatest!
