I can remember that when I first started to be involved in the forum, there was a GGG sale. Round September, I'd say. Is there to be one in the upcoming weeks? *wink*

Not that I need more kits. Hmph.

BrattyMeg · #2 09-08-2010, 08:19 AM

I can tell ya it's not this month..Thinking later in the year

Lots of fun stuff coming up though!

Actually it's OK if it's not any time soon. I don't need to spend more! :-)

Fun stuff? Can't wait! ;-)

MommaTrish · #4 09-08-2010, 08:22 AM

about to say I thought we just had one in like Marchish.

ColleenSwerb · #5 09-08-2010, 08:27 AM

I thought GGG was a once a year thing?
There's usually a rare store-wide sale in the fall.

adrianka · #6 09-08-2010, 08:27 AM

See, I thought it was a twice-a-year thing, that's why I asked. :-)

pewtertm · #7 09-08-2010, 08:30 AM

I think it is twice a year...seems like the second one was around iDSD (maybe a week or two before? or after?), although I could be wrong on that one. LOVE a GGG sale...so later is better, once I build the bank account back up after vacation!

I was thinking we had one around iDSD weekend (international digiscrapping day in November) but maybe not that exact weekend. SSD has only a couple sales a year, but that is why the portfolio challenges are so key!

Oh, forget my original reaction. I mean, how blind am I? You mentioned November and I saw April. And it's only 3 p.m. in my time zone. :-)

*double headdesk*

I deleted what I have originally written, but this part is still true: No big deal if there's none, as I really don't need to spend anything right now. Actually, the later the better! :-)

I think I should better go working and stop spamming the forum. :-)

Oops, that's what I meant LOL...that's what I get for typing so early in the morning.

gabbygirl · #11 09-08-2010, 10:26 AM

There was a black Friday sale last year..I think.

Yep, I remember clearly - black Friday announced as the biggest SSD sale of the year!

joelsgirl · #13 09-08-2010, 11:22 AM

*i* think GGG is three times a year. ; )

The last couple of years there's been a huge sale for iDSD, and I'm holding out hope for another one this year.

Tell us more of this "fun stuff" of which you speak, Meg.

newfiemountiewife · #14 09-08-2010, 11:27 AM

Yes, there was a Black Friday sale last year, but my poor brain cannot recall anything else LOL.

Julie Billingsley · #15 09-08-2010, 11:31 AM

GGG is twice a year. It feels like the last one just happened so I'm hoping we wait a bit on having the next one!

KristinCB · #16 09-08-2010, 11:48 AM

it's the most wonderful time of the yearrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. lots and lots of stuff coming up! get your paypal ready

LOL

DeepGirl · #17 09-08-2010, 12:25 PM

GGG is definitely a SEMI-ANNUAL sale. The last one was in the beginning of April 2010, so the next should be in October

Yes, and I remember my first GGG shortly after I joined SSD in September 2009

I was just thinking the same thing

Jengerbread88 · #20 09-08-2010, 01:57 PM

Argh! All of my extra money goes to SSD anyway. So sales don't exactly help-- just encourages me to spend more! Like the 5 weeks of spend 8. I spent 8 every. single. week. of that.

Because I can so afford it right now. :: snort ::

rochelle789 · #21 09-08-2010, 02:55 PM

Isn't DSD in November too? Do I remember last year having a DSD sale and a Black Friday sale? Or am I just making that up?

In any event, I still haven't used 90% of the kits I bought at the last NSD, DSD and GGG sales. I need to get on that.

Digital Scrapbooking Day is the first Saturday in November.

yep

This year I *THINK* rewards might even be in between..don't quote me on that but maybe!

hollyxann · #25 09-08-2010, 04:31 PM

I feel like I always seem to miss the good sales and the exciting fun things throughout the days because of work.

Granted the sales are all day but I miss all the fun stuff inbetween.

Me, too! They always fall over drill weekend when I work a 16 hour shift, so no time at all and we can't access the boards from work (the store, yes, the boards, no, because it has community in the address).

Ebony · #27 09-08-2010, 08:21 PM

What's that? Sales? Fun?

Geez. I'm gonna hold out on spending till then. Worst bit? Our new designers (one in particular) is going to drain my account. Drain it I say! Better get to work on that portfolio!

letumom · #28 09-08-2010, 08:24 PM

Since I joined earlier this year, I don't exactly remember a GGG sale. What does GGG stand for, since there might be other newbies in the dark with me on this one?

lovely1m · #29 09-08-2010, 08:28 PM

Going, Going, Gone...retirement sale.

*shakes hands*

What's worse, I've committed some serious overspending lately, and since I know my expenditure for October will be higher than usual (will have to pay for my 3-week stay in Strasbourg), I don't seem to have the right to spend anything more.

She has just drained mine!
