What spending freeze???

Ok, so I know I said I was on a spending freeze for this year.  That was my New Year's Resolution and like most New Year's Resolutions (think joining the gym and working out every day)...it lasted for 3 weeks.  Yeap, Three l-o-n-g weeks!   

I went to PetSmart today to pick up some cat food and of course right next door is Joanne's.  I said to myself, self, just go in and browse, you don't need to buy anything, just browse I said.  So in I went and out I came with a new stash of AWESOMENESS for...wait for it...UNDER $20.00 and NO coupon!

They had all of their Christmas stuff 90% off.  Why is that a big deal for a scrapbooking person you ask.  Well, my mind sees stuff and even if it's not specifically in the scrapbook isle or designated for scrapbooking (think, thread, small wooden words, ribbon...you get the idea).  I'm always saying to myself, self, would this work for a layout?  All of the stuff of course would!

Here is my haul from Joann's.  If you have a Joann's I suggest you run there tomorrow before it is all gone! (apparently there is some technical difficulty with uploading the entire video so if you want to see the rest click here to head over to my FB page).

I hope you enjoyed this little haul video and I hope you are able to find a crazy deal like this in one of your go to stores!  Remember, just because it doesn't say "scrapbooking" doesn't mean you can't use it for a layout.  Let your mind go crazy!  If it doesn't work out, start over and what did you waste? Thirty-nine cents and a little time...but how fun if it does work!  You just scored!
