I know that ritzcamera.com was running a special on a lot of the nesties...$16.65 per single set of dies... I've bought mine from a few places online, all with great service, 7 Kids College Fund, Papertrey Ink are some of them...

Don't forget to get the tan mat to use, so you can emboss as well as cut In the CB (though my understanding is a lot of the machines vary) for cutting, I use (from bottom) Plate A, Plate C, die face(ridge) up,CS, plate B.
For embossing, I use Plate A, die face up with CS in the die, tan mat, plate B, 3 CS shims (this will definitely depend on your machine, and the weight of CS you use), 2nd Plate B.
I have bought all mine at Cut At Home. Sign up to be a VIP customer and you get a 40% off coupon each month. That makes the price better than any other online site. And I've checked. I don't have a Hobby Lobby near me, but I have heard that this store sells them and they often have coupons.
You don't need to buy the special tan mat for embossing. Go to your hardware store and buy a piece of plumber's gasket. Its a rubber sheet about 6" square and costs less than $1. This is what I use and it works just fine.

I agree with ritz camera and 7 kids

If you are looking for just the basics try Overstock; the first time I ordered I applied for their creditcard and ended up only paying about $9 for two sets, they also only charge $2 for shipping.
I always get mine from Ucutathome - I use the coupon - super fast shipping and yes I use them with my Bug.
Me too, I have purchased the whole sets of circles & ovals and scalloped circles and ovals. I really love my Labels 1 too. Not sure if should get squares or long rectangles next?
I just ordered a bunch from 7 Kids College Fund. I ordered them on Sunday and they are going to be delivered on Friday. yepieieie and the newer one's where 19.99.
Whooo hoooo...I felt the need for the new nesties. I just went to Ritz and ordered 5 of the new sets...for under $100 and free shipping....very nice...lol
I've bought from [email protected] and use the 40% off VIP coupon. When you sign-up, they send you the code via email and you can use only once during the month on one item. The discount is taken off of the retail price not off of the cut@home price. They also have excellent customer service. It is best to buy a set or two at a time to save on shipping. Otherwise, you are paying at least $6 per shipment.
And yes, you can use them in your Cuttlebug (which is what I have). Instead of buying the tan mat, I bought red rubber gaskets (6x6 in size) that you can get at Home Depot in the plumbing section for about $4 for 2/pk). I haven't had to use the other one yet. The nesties do not cut through the rubber when embossing. You do not need to cut it down either. I taped a couple pieces of cardstock underneath for embossing. You will have to experiment first and make sure the fit isn't too tight or you will break the plate.

Sure wish I saw this BEFORE I spent 9.00 for 2!! That's me - day late $1 shorter LOL!

What, I just ordered a bunch of nesties last week from Ritz (square & rectangle sets, end tags, and label 1) and they were out of the new ones. Darn, now I have to wait till my next pay check which will be next month to buy the new ones (I hope it doesn't run out by then). Free shipping for over $100.
I always get the best prices on ebay these, I must admit. The labels are the hot dies right now and they are going for about 20.00 on ebay. I have a buyers group (private but taking members) where they are much cheaper. I must admit I sell them myself on my website. But the prices are much better on the buyers forum, so if you are interested email me for details.http://www.michellesscrap.com
For those of you that have them in you area, Archivers sells Nesties now. They are $24.99, but I always use my 30% off coupon. They don't have all the shapes though, but it's a nice way to save on shipping!
I just ordered at Joann.com and they are still on sale........and the new shipping code for FREE shipping is CCABINAPRFS9 I ordered five sets and saved 35 dollars with the free shipping.
I did my order over the phone and they don't automatically give you the free shipping you have to give a code. I think they should just have free shipping if they are going to have it.
Anyway not griping just thinking outloud. I am a newbie nestie gal so I am happy to be getting 5 to go with my 4 I just bought at Hobby Lobby!
