I've been going through my list and trying to figure out which ones to choose?! There are so many great kits and templates in my wish list that of course I want them all but that definitely can't happen. :D I know the store collab is coming out this weekend too and I need to make sure I have enough money to purchase that! :wub: :thumbup: I keep going back and forth and fighting myself on getting kits I need that I have pictures for and wanting them because they are just so pretty! Ahhhh...choices!

So how are you going about deciding what to purchase with your Bingo coupon??? Please share! :thumbup:

I still have to make sure I don't go overboard.... last year at this time the coupon was such a great deal (and still is here in the store), but with how the dollar has dropped this past year my 30% coupon only covers price increase of the exchange rate :( So basically I am working my butt off to earn regular price... visually it has been discouraging the past couple of months, but I keep reminding myself I am still saving lots by scrapping!!! ;)

I'd love to see what everyone bought too.
My wishlist is way too long! I'll probably buy some templates from Cindy and Simone and a few kits.
I'll share the preview when I'm actually done shopping.
Thank you for reminding me to keep some money left for the store collab.

Ooooh, I always try to decide before I receive the coupon and fill my cart beforehand but still, I find it difficult to decide and in the end I remove a thing or two and add another lol. I also want to have money for next week releases (when the coupon is no longer valid) so this month I filled my cart with some kits that I had in my wish list for quite some time which I wanted to have because I know I can use for my photos and will fit my style. I got a few templates too because I need them for some of the challenges or for some private layouts which I know will be a great fit. There are, of course, kits which I love just for being pretty but I try not to buy on impulse. So, let's say I buy the kits I know I CAN and WILL use.
Sometimes, however, I wish I could experiment with another style but would rather not spend my money on something I am not sure. So, in this case I'm so happy that this month I won a free kit and will have the chance to try one of Rachel's kits -- I've been eyeing them for quite some time but because of being so unsure if I'll be able to scrap with them or not, I restrained myself from buying.
Well, that's basically how and what I do with the bingo rewards.

That does make it hard Jenn! I like the positive attitude though! I usually only have my Christmas/Birthday money for shopping and then whatever I make from my TeachersPayTeachers account, which usually isn't a lot since I haven't invested my time with it. So as I'm coming to the close of my spending amount from Christmas/Birthday it's getting super hard! I'm so thankful for my wonderful CT teams for sure that allows me to scrap my families memories.

Some of these I had in my wish list while others I liked because of some beautiful pages I saw in the gallery.

Melanie, I'm so in love with all the new releases too! So many great ones to choose from. Then I spot another one I hadn't seen and add to my list LOL....so many good ones!

Sarah, I can't wait to see what you buy! No problem for the mention about the collab coming up...I had to remind myself too! I can't wait to see it!!!

Anelia, congrats on winning a free kit! That is always such an awesome feeling to win something! I can't wait to see what you create with Rachel's kit! I'm sure it will be beautiful! That style is really different from my usual too but one that I love is a dip she did with Krystal Hartley and Digital Scrapbook Ingredients, We are the dreamers (I'll post the preview and link below my comment). I usually will use everything I buy from here but yes I want to make sure I purchase something that I don't really have yet that I have pictures that need to be scrapped. There are a few themes I already have but the kit is so pretty I want it...we shall see what I end up doing! lol

Here is the kit I mentioned:

That is perfect for one of the bingo challenges too! I can't wait to see you use it! :wub:

Those Cindy templates are on my wishlist too Anelia!

I've been eyeing on those kits from Rachel too.

anelia
02-08-2016, 02:39 PM
Yes, Mary, that's one of the reasons I went for it :) I'll download it later and will try to scrap the bingo page tomorrow.
Sarah, you should probably get some of these because you're very good with templates. Some of them are perfect for the bingo challenges too :)

In the email it says the coupon is only good until the new releases go live. So you'll want to use your coupon before then.

I hear your pain Jenn! The lousy dollar has really cut into my scrapping budget. I used to pretty much purchase what ever I wanted now I have to really think about which kits I get. The coupons definitely help though. Which is why I pretty much stick to SSD these days.

I'm (hoping) that the FWP kit will be available earlier in the day than new releases, as the current kit is only available until the 11th.

02-08-2016, 09:54 PM
I feel the pain regarding exchange rate Jenn & Suz. I pretty much have to get 30% off or more otherwise its not worth it. Thats a big reason why I didn't finish January - I needed to do 5 or 6 more layouts and I left my run too late.

I bought a lot last week so not sure what I'm buying. Definitely a lot left on my wishlist though! I was hoping there would be a new FWP too since I already have the current one. I have to say that I'd be tempted to buy more every week if there were a new FWP every week! I'll buy anyway, LOVE the supplies here!!

One of everything, please! I haven't even tried to narrow it down yet. We're taking the kids to Disney World for the first time next month, so I'm probably going to start building my collection of Disney-themed kits. I also have a lot of Brook's templates on my wishlist, so maybe one of those, too.

I'll be back to share once I've shopped, but that probably won't be until late in the week. I haven't decided yet if I'm going to wait until Friday for the new FWP. I want to, but it would mean shopping around midnight (if the new FWP has gone up by then) because work will get in the way of doing it later on Friday. I worry that I'll forget or fall asleep and never get to use my coupon. :(

I'm thinking of getting this:

Not sure what else... I'll probably just spend around $10 to get the next FWP. Same as others, the exchange rate means I can't afford to buy much anymore - things are 30-35% more expensive than they were a year and a half ago :(.

anelia
02-09-2016, 04:29 AM
Speaking of exchange rates -- in my country the average DAILY salary is around $10-12 so the coupons are a must for me. If I could, I'd buy anything I wanted on the day of release. Unfortunately, I can't, so I try my best to complete the bingo cards.

mrsashbaugh
02-09-2016, 12:03 PM
Yes, I've been eyeing KCB's kit too...a couple of them actually since I was waiting for my coupon. There are some temps from Cindy, Simone and Brook that I've been eyeing. I want to get a travel kit too. I haven't done any official shopping yet as I'm still deciding lol. Rachel, getting some disney inspired kits would be great for your upcoming trip! Kim, that is a cute kit choice too!

Some awesome choices! I think I'm almost ready to make my decision lol. With my money coming to an end...I'm really thinking which ones to get. These are the ones I'm pretty sure I'll be getting with my coupon and then I'll putting some of the money to the side to make sure I get the mega awesome store collab this weekend which will also get me the new $10 FWP anyways so I don't need to wait until Friday to have it change over.
