Nothing so far....I still need to get my Stampin Up catalog from my Demo!
I have looked at the one online, But I would rather have it in my hands so I can look at it any time.
I have a couple of set's I really want. But haven't placed an order yet!

Well lets see my first order was like $650, then my second order (the next day) was a little over $200, and then the last one I expedited was also about $200.
Yeah I guess you can say just a little out of control! But I've been saving for it.

Man now I wish even more that I lived closer!!! It's gonna be so fun to dive in those boxes!!!
The only order I've placed thus far crested at just $160 +/- . . .
Bear in mind, Miss Joan, that I'm having to spread it all out because YOU enabled me to buy a BIG SHOT (so you'd feel better), which just arrived Monday and I haven't even cracked open the box yet. Well, OK, I did, but only had time to pet it, not take it OUTTA the box.
For some reason, I am swamped with behind-the-scenes DD stuff these last few days, including some sort of related "poetry" . . .
What's up with that, anyway? :rolleyes: ;) chuckle!
I'm in the planning stages, of the next order, however . . . ouch.

Yeah don't anyone worry when I'm not on for like a week! The thing that stinks is Alexa has Chemo tomorrow, Friday, Monday & tues!!! She will prob. be sick over the weekend-ick!
I'm bring my stamps to her appointments so I can cut them all, then I'll spend next week (or the wee hours of the night) stamping away!!!
I'm going to make some gift packs for the teens there that uses Stinkin cute saying "Cancer Stinks!" They love stuff like that. They all have braceletes & shirts with that on them. How cute would that be...oh maybe some journals instead?! Now that would be way cool.
My first order was just around $60. Not that I wouldn't have spent more if we had it, but honestly food comes before stamps. (At least that's what my DH keeps telling me.)

JULIE you HAVE to buy MORE! How many gorgeous samples can you create with JUST $160 worth..If I know you I'm sure you got all stuff none of us saw the beauty in, and we will be spending more.
Tell my you at least got the paisley? Its the best I've ever seen. I never even like the last one.
$400 of out of pocket purchases... plus $140 in free stuff from my uplines, plus $100 for a SU promotion coming soon! I am so exited! And I keep looking at the other stuff I want thinkng I better get on the phone and book some workshops!

Heh, heh--serious, Lauren; I gotta spread it out. I like aaaaaall the Level I hostess sets. :mrgreen:
Plus, I ADORE getting new stuff every month, as opposed to all at once, aaaaaaaaand, frankly, the enablers around here in the galleries, including you, girl, will prolly cause the priorities on what I *thought* were my IMH's (Initial Must-Haves) to shift around on me, change entirely, increase, etc. :rolleyes:
I'm covering all the bases. ;)

Oh my gosh. I can't imagine.....
I haven't gotten anything yet, but I'm not a demo. I emailed my demo the other day, asking her what she liked in the new catalog. She said she wouldn't tell me how much she spent, but she might be close to you. She started saying things like she bought some of the new backgrounds, as well as the new bg sets and new punches. I'm thinking it was a lot.
I hope your daughter does well with her chemo. This is the first I've heard of that, and it broke my heart. I'm guessing she is your picture next to your posts. I will be praying for her. When my dad had cancer, we decided we needed as many people praying as we could get.

Holy "Schizel-Bizzel-Gizzel Gar".....
*I* wish I lived closer to you too! :-)
So far, I've done a $175 order and I have another $175 order ready to go. I'm *trying* to wait until August just to just see *if* SU will be running any specials that I can add to it. Most likey I'll cave and submit it later this week.
Julie - I'm with you... I LOVE all the level 1 hostess sets! I'm planning on doing a bunch of smaller orders just to get them all! I really like the scrappin set (Friends and Flowers).
Have a stamp-happy day!

I have to agree with you Julie on all accounts!
I love the level one sets. Mytime's work has really caused me some spending issues! And my list keeps changing already!
I placed a 150 + a bit and had it sent 2nd Day so I could play with them quicker! Crazy but oh so fun!
I will be placing another order next month and if the upcoming mini sets are good then I will do another the following month ;)

So far, only $55.00, but I just got started! I have lots on my wish list, so I'm going to schedule a couple workshops soon. Especially before the holidays. Like Mindeola, I budget about $40-$50 a month because I go to at least one workshop a month that my demo has, plus the few camps or workshops that I have in hopes to accumulate a few discounts or free gifts.
I am debating signing up as a demo just to receive my own discounts, but I'm not sure I would be able to spend and/or sell the minimum requirement each month/quarter to make it worth while for me. I bargain hunt at rummage sales and e-bay too.
My 1st order was 647.50 and that included next day air shipping and then I got 75 dollars worth of free stuff on top of that.
My 2nd order was 350 with next day air too. You could say I'm out of control. ;-) but I have to stop because the holiday mini comes out soon and I know with those ribbon holders I will spend another 300 bucks probably.

Renee you know I would LOVE to get together and stamp with you! You need to plan a trip to NH!
I voted for nothing yet, but it's not because I'm still thinking, it's because of lack of funds! I just made a huge retiring stamp order at the end of June and I need to replenish the funds. My wish list is a mile long. My first order will easily be several hundred. I'm afraid to add up my total for the wish list. It might be too much to handle. I'm sure in the end, I'll be getting more than I can afford because there is so much that I want!

Wait a minute!?? Moi! I have no memory of such enablement, but I was just thinking about getting one!! My husband feels guilty because I had to cancel going to the convention and is looking for ways to make me happy!! LOL
I want to do window cards. Julie, drop everything else and go do a window card and let us know if it really works!! Is it worth the $$$???

My first order was $440! :-) I even paid the extra $35 to have it send next day air. Money WELL spent in my opinion. My daughters and I stamped 24/7 this past weekend :-)
Well lets see my first order was like $650, then my second order (the next day) was a little over $200, and then the last one I expedited was also about $200.

so my sweetie wants to know, your single, huh? He was just teasing!

btw, my order was for 165, but I was severly limited as I have to get school supplies and school clothes for the kids..darn kids! Oh yeah, and the new hot tub we just got, and the wedding set that my sweetie is getting, and the new driveway. GEEZ, can't I just spend it all on stamping stuff? Oh yeah, but he did let me get all of the snap stamps, sized 1/8-1/2"..lol, both formal and casual!

I spent about $450.00 on my order. My demonstrator included a few more orders to bring the total up so that I got two Level I sets and one Level II set plus $60.00 in free stuff! I can't wait to get my order!
I will also join her stamper's club, so I'll be buying about $30.00 worth every month for the next six months, plus any sets and goodies I like from the Minis. [IMG]//www.splitcoaststampers.com/forums/images/icons/icon7.gif[/IMG]

$202!! And, I have a bunch more stuff on my wish list! My order just went into picking, and once it ships, it takes a week to get here, darn it, so I still have to wait awhile to play!
The only thing I am "still thinking" on is when to put in my second order! My first was a little over $500...I am out of control (it won't be here until Monday...I knew I should have expedited, 'cause being on the East Coast stinks sometimes). My wish list was over $1800 in stamps not to mention the new colors....stamp pads, cards stock and reinkers....OH MY!
The only order I've placed thus far crested at just $160 +/- . . .
Okay Julie,
Spill the beans on those IMH's!!!!!! I spent about 160 as well and here's my list:
Be Happy, Paisley, Finest Flourishes, Circle of Friendship, Letter Patterns, Warm Words, Watercolor Vine, both chipboard sets, Tags So Much as my hostess set, new buttons (must have the celery buttons) and The Wheel Thing from the summer mini as my freebies.

LOL! I might end up that way ;) . I actually had used my instant income from selling SU, my great rewards visas ($200 total), and my check from my volume rebate also over $200 so it really wasn't "house" money. I stamped my heart out earning it-or getting people to spend their money on SU! Plus I won 2 contest from SU and had some free sets comin my way-
My first order was around $200. But it was part of a larger order so I ended up with 2 level 1s and the free merch as well. I got stuff I really wanted right away but it was really difficult to reign myself in. My wish list has passed $1200!!! But... we have 11 more months to go and I always spend a lot in Jan & Feb!!! Wheeeeee!
