Going... going... gone... when?

Just few days after I joined SSD community in fall 2009, there was a semi-annual sale which helped me to build my kits base for future scrapping.

I'm so curious about when the spring sale takes place as I am prepared for big shopping for my 40% Sweet Rewards and I have only one credit card with only one salary incoming by... so I want to be able to shop also during the GGG Spring 2010 sale :D

Thankee, girls :)
 
I'm not sure when it is, but I'm pretty sure they do it only once a year...


ETA: ooooh, twice a year!!!! watch out Paypal! hehehe!

I think they do it in the srping and the fall...if I remember right {but I could be wrong}, they did it around last May....
 
I've been having mini panic attacks thinking one might happen during the BDay Bash and I'd have to blow my budget. I *still* haven't used the ones I got at the last GGG sale. :(
 
I ADORE the GGG sale. I tell my husband it's on clearance so he doesn't freak when he sees the credit card statement! :lol:

Plus.. you can't ever get it again. I have this slight problem with things I don't own being gone forever. What if I need it someday? :blink:

I have the same problem... my name is Stephanie... and I'm a digi-hoarder...

:p I could scrap with each kit just once on my EHD and never have to buy again, but yet here I am...

I KNOW!!! During the last sale, Misty and Julie had their religious kit in the sale and I thought, no... it's not my style (hello, it is Misty and Julie... of course it's my style.. duh!)... and didn't get it. Now my kiddo is in Sunday School and I think back to that kit all the time... wishing... dreaming... that I purchased that kit... stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid!!!! UGH!

Maybe someday... there will be an open the vault sale for a week... *finger's crossed*

*snort*

The last Going Going Gone sale was when I joined SSD and the world of digiscrapping was opened up to me and my collection began. Kellie, I too have one kit from the sale that I haven't used yet... it's waiting for the day Moriah starts school or a school type activity that I'm not so involved in that I forget to take pictures, lol.
 
GGG are roughly 3 times a year. Roughly LOL It has been awhile since we had one, and I predict there will be one soon.
 
lol..I have one from when Robin retired that I still haven't used, too. It was just too cute. Can't wait!
 
just think of it this way.. out of all things to hoard.. digi scrap supplies are one of the few things that if you buy excessive amounts its not going to hurt the environment, wreck your waistline or fill up your house with useless clutter :)

LOL, true... although, I think the time it takes to use all the excessive amounts I buy does a little wreckage to my waistline, lol... I need to figure out an exercise I can do while scrapping :p
 
not only that, but you can get lots of use of them...eventually. LOL at least they don't expire!!!

Sooo true!
 
HA! One kit you haven't used yet? Bwahahahahahaha......

I have about um......let's see....every one I bought from GGG! :p
 
I'm a sucker for a sale...

Just when I thought I would have my process down for buying... I hadn't heard of the GGG before... but now I can't wait... & I have about........, oh, that many & then some that I haven't used.

I couldn't agree more wholeheartedly! I find it really hard to go through the sale and pick my favorites, because I really want them all.

Now, I have been (mostly, with the exception of some KCB kits I couldn't refuse) able to avoid buying girly kits for the girl I don't have. BUT, I can't guarantee that I could resist girly things in a GGG sale.

I have a problem. :huh:

Ok I have a great example for this ... two actually ... what if someone starts digi scrapping AFTER the sale ... they missed out FOREVER on those kits ... and the designers missed out on newbies getting those kits they might have just loved ...

...up until January 9, 2010 I *NEVER* thought I would ever USE a "soccer" themed kit ... January 9th hit and FIRST Robotics announced their "Breakaway" challenge which was robots playing soccer!!! Now how would I have *ever* guessed I would have needed a soccer kit to go with robotics??!!! hmmm? Thankfully Libby had a great looking kit currently in the store. ...so that would be under the classification "what if I need it someday"....

...that's like the "teaser" for BEST Robotics next Fall ... hmmm from watching the video it COULD be a football kit I need, or a martial arts, or maybe just an "assembly line/factory" type of kit ... but I won't know until next Fall....

...sigh...maybe the designers should just keep making robot kits ... and making "lime green" a staple color in their kits...then I'm covered. :p

I was telling my mother at the end of last month that I had to get a few more layouts done so I could earn my 40% off ... and she says ... "now Sharon, don't you think you have ENOUGH digital kits? I mean how many could you NEED?" ...

...this coming from a mother that is on a first name basis with HER UPS man that delivers her QVC orders to her every week!!! :p
