Red face Please... tell me.

Those of you who organize out which kits you haven't used.
How many kits do you have in that? I just did mine for here alone and have 49... I'm feeling

At last count it was about 80...most likely more because that was just my portable hard drive...but I refuse to count again...the more i think about it the more I become...I'm going to scrap with all those kits before I even think about buying anything else...

I have 12 from this year that I haven't used; most of those were ones I bought early in the year, before I became such an expert at using the kits I buy. ; )

I counted mine last year this time, and I had 54. I had a plan to use five of those each month this year so that I wouldn't feel like I had lost money...I've used 9 of those kits all year long.

But at least it has saved me money because i remember how awful it felt to realize that I'd spent at least $200 on stuff I WAS NEVER GONNA USE!

I have 5. Mostly some All that Glitters kits (I've used a good portion of them, just a few left to scrap with!) and things I purchased last week.

I think it's around 45, maybe a bit less than that but my EHD died the other day and I had to download everything again so I stuck them all in one folder until I have time to organise them properly! I'll probably reuse the ones I've worked with before to do new pages to print as I lost ALL of them from the EHD!

uggh, I just counted, I have about 80 too but there are about 10 in there that I just downloaded last night which were Christmas presents, and there are probably about another 10 that are template packs that I have used only 1 template out of and want to use another one at least before I send it off to the used files... so I guess about 60! Eeeek, I have a lot of scrapping to do too! Good thing I am off for the next 2 weeks!

hmmmm - since when?!? i have well over one hundred on an old EHD from when i first started scrapping in 2006/2007 .... in recent history (say 2 years?) i probably have 30 or 40 ... i scrap mainly with kits from here and other CTs - BUT - there are some designers that i just love and i used to buy everything they put out, but then i never scrapped with it ... i've slowed down on that the past 6 months or so though - bc i don't like the clutter, even on my ehd!

106. And I just counted kits- not templates, alphas, etc. Guess I know what one of my 2011 goals is!

I have 14 kits, and a few template sets. (Most are Christmas kits that I will be using to finish my countdown to Christmas album)

Hatred and jealousy from just about everyone else in this thread

I don't count. Anything. Ever. I never counted how much money spent I before, and I don't count the kits that I hoard now. Although I've become MUCH better about controlling my purchasing. My wish list is PACKED.

I never count them. Why stress? I know that I come back to older kits, it keeps happening all the time, so I'm not guiltidden if I don't use something right away or if something sits on my drive unused.

There's, of course, the question of changes of taste... and kits that looked good in previews but never fulfilled my expectations... Those are worse. But there are worse things in life.

I'm not even going there. LOL I don't have an unused folder either so I'll just continue to live in this pleasant place where my EHD is bulging.

I had 26 at the begining of the month. I used 4 of them putting together my 365 layouts last week, so I am down to 22. I don't let myself buy new kits unless I am below 20 unused ones. So I need to use 3 more this week

I have 51 in all stores and 16 from SSD. The point where I got like Kellie describes is when I had over 100 kits in the unused folder. This freaked me out. I took a look at why that was and realized I just wasn't using the kits from other stores, so I stopped buying them. Now I have just been working on my goal to widdle that unused non-SSD kits down to 0. I did knock it down a lot in the last year. I don't worry about how many unused SSD kits I have cause I only buy ones I know I am going ot use soon.

I have no idea and I don't want to know. I would say from this year... 5-10. Many from previous years--which really means I just need to purge!! And a lot of those were great freebies or free with purchase kits, or bought with gift cards--so I don't feel as guilty about it.

I don't keep mine separate either. I'm guessing I have 10-15 unused though - mostly from DSD and the last couple of times I've gotten SR. Those are about the only times I buy anymore since I've got plenty of CT kits to keep me busy most weeks. I pick up the occasional kit or template set if they catch my eye but I've usually got a layout in mind for those so they get used pretty quickly.

Last time I looked (a few months ago), I had well over 100. And I've bought probably 20+ kits since then. I have a disease.... I've lost my scrapping mojo, but not my desire to buy pretty kits!!

13 that I've purchased
15 that were free for some reason or another, like the kits you get here free with a $10 purchase, etc.

I'm in denial and don't want to count. It's got to be 100+ though. New goal - scrap my stash

I've got about 8 unused from throughout the year, plus 9 more from the big Nov. SSD sales. I have plans for them and really will use them, but if I stock up during SR or a big sale it can take me a couple of months to work through all of my new purchases (using others from my stash as well during that time). I used to have a lot more, but they were mostly $1 deals from other sites that I sometimes used and sometimes didn't. Since the portfolios started here I've stopped buying kits at other sites because I won't get around to using them.

14 kits
40 alphas/element packs/paper packs/templates, etc...

my goal is to work through the cookies4kids after Dec Daily and use up most of these... although some of them are baby kits so I'll be waiting to use them for a few more weeks
