I usually wait for a good sale (DSD is coming up !!!) or try to get a BlackOut Bingo card which gives me a 40% off coupon. The Oldies sale is amazing too......50% off, can't beat that. I think SSD has amazing opportunities to get great designs for smaller prices. Just fill up your wishlist and wait for a good sale
Plus the FWPs always make me feel like I am getting a good deal when I spend $10 or $20 and get that Free With Purchase kit
