I live on the tropical island of Newfoundland in St. John's. I buy most of my stuff at Michael's (which only opened here this past summer) and some of my stuff at Wal-Mart and we have ONE local scrapping store that I am aware of called "The Paperie". I don't shop there as much now that M's has opened but they have some nice things. Oh, and Kent, an Atlantic Canada home improvement store has a small selection of supplies as well. I get most of my punches there.

lol Toronto and Manitoba is not eastern Canada. That's Ok we're used to it here in Atlantic Canada lol
As for where I shop we're getting a Micheals opening soon I can't wait!! We also have "Photo Memories" It's the same company as Carsand Mosher ans it's HUGE. Walmart sometimes, Kent's (like Kellybee said), and the dollar stores around here are really starting to carry some cool embellishments and stuff.

kelly 11-05-2005 06:52 AM

i am also from Oxbow, Saskatchewan. i buy my once a month order from SU and then i am always on the hunt for other stamping and scrapping supplies wherever i am. I buy alot from Micheals or from Joannes in Minot Nd.

Good Morning to you scrapper12 EH? I'm from Manitoba, west of Winnipeg! I just love this website! IAM COMPLETELY hooked! Check out some of my swaps!! There aren't many Canadians out there swapping! How come??

:p

JMCDA 11-05-2005 07:14 AM

Hi There!

I am from the Stratford Ontario area! I used to shop a lot at M's or local scrapbooking stores, and since we are across the border often at Joann's or Archivers but I am finding less and less that I "need" or want that is not from SU - last thing I think I bought was the Palette glue pad (it's like heat and stick powder crossed with a Versamark pad) and I really think SU should carry it in the next catty!
...other than that I will shop M's for the magazines or books and that is about it.

Hi from Raymore, Sask. i am about 1 hour north of Regina. I hear there is a new store (Let's get Scrappin) in Regina, but I haven't been able to get there yet, I also really like (Just Scrap It) in Saskatoon, they really seem to have everything. There is also one in North Battleford that is pretty good.

I am trying to get a canadian goodie box going, I have a thread under this heading, if any of you are interested, we only need 4 more to get started

I'm from Leduc, Alberta. It's a whole 15 min south of Edmonton. There are two really great Local stores here that I shop at, we also have Wal Mart, and Michael's is only 15 min. away on the south side of Edmonton. There is also a GREAT little store that isn't too far a drive from me 10-15 min. west, in Calmar, she has amazing prices on things. She is also on line, I'll see if I can find the link....um....ahh..... Oh there it is. :)

:cool: Fort St. John, British Columbia! (Formerly of New Westminster, BC)

We have a scrapbooking store, WalMart doesn't have much and the nearest Michaels is in Grande Prairie. Great Stampin Up demonstrator though!

lilorangemouse 11-05-2005 07:47 PM

I'm in Calgary. That sounds so unexciting after hearing from all you small town folks!

I live near Saskatoon. I go to Just Scrap It quite often for the Friday late night crops. Love them! That is also where I get most of my stuff if it is not from SU. Great store and small world!

Donna519 11-06-2005 03:06 AM

I live close to Jan in Wyoming, as I'm in Kettle Point, Ontario. Right on Lake Huron.
I'm not a SU demo but I love it. I buy my stamps from SU; a friend that designs very cute stamps (in Sarnia); and Michaels.

Hi: I'm from Thunder Bay Ontario, which is on Lake Superior about 45 minutes north of the US border.

We have a couple of small scrapbook stores, Walmart and CraftsCanada. But they are nothing compared to what SU has for us stamp-a-holics.

scrappy12 11-06-2005 09:46 AM

Nice to see how many Canadians are here..........any more????? As for shopping here......I have nothing.....the best stores would be eight hrs from here. Thats why I'm searching for on line stores in Canada for ribbons........etc.

thuskins 11-06-2005 10:00 AM

Nova Scotia
 
I'm in Nova Scotia and have family in PEI, I shop at Walmart (great for ribbons), Carsand Mosier's Photo Memories in Halifax and scope dollar stores occasionally. On PEI I used to go to walmart and Leisure World but now that there is Micheal's I might try there. When I moved here Walmart in Halifax was the closest and dollar stores were my only option, I bought a lot from ebay then, but now not so much.

Hey Auntie Care
 
We're neighbours. I'm about 1 1/2 hours away from you.
We don't have any stampin stores here. I have to go to Grande Prairie too.
