Hello fellow crafters!!! Just wondering if anyone knows the least expensive place to purchase the "Sizzix Big shot?" I know that J's you can get the big kick with a coupon, but I would like the big shot. The pink & black one!!
Location: Virginia, where we have the beach and mountains all in one state!!

Michael's carries the Big Shot, nope it's the Big Kick but it's the same thing and you can use your coupon there. Keep you eye out and you could get lucky and get the 60% off coupon, wooo hooo wouldn't that be so cool!!
Good luck.
edited to say Oppps if you want the pink/black one I don't think you can get it at Michael's. Hummmm I'm not sure where the best place would be. I'm sure someone will chime in.
If you buy it from a Stampin' Up! demo during Sell-A-Bration in Feb and March, You would earn 2 free stamp sets. Something to think about. Plus the demo will probably teach you how to use it.

Amazon has it right now for $75 and free shipping . If you watch Amazon you can occasionally get it a little cheaper. I paid $68 with free shipping a few months ago.
Be sure you get it with free shipping. Some places charge a lot to ship it.
Well, watch the Sizzix site--the clearance section. Last October a bunch of us from SCS got it for $29. It was the pink and black Hello Kitty version. I couldn't beat that price! Sizzix.com also has dies on sale for incredible prices. I buy most of my goodies in the clearance section there. I can't find them cheaper than what they go for in the clearance section at the Sizzix site.

Yes, I definitely second what identicaltriplets said! Now, I wasn't lucky enough to get my Hello Kitty pink/black BS for $29, but I did get it in Jan.2010, for $59. I spent $100 so shipping was free and there was just a $5 surcharge on the BS.
Their clearance section is the most incredible one I've ever seen! $20 dies sell for $3.00! It's fantastic! They run Terrific Tuesday sales too. I don't think they currently have a BS on sale there, but you could sure stock up and have quite a sizzix die collection in no time by shopping in their clearance section. Be warned....once you check it out, you'll be hooked!
Best of luck!

This sounds great. Do you earn 2 SAB sets? I tried to find this special on the SU website, but didn't see it. Can anyone link me to where I can find out more info?
Go to ww.stampinup.com. On that home page click on the picture about Sale-a-bration. It will give you the info. You earn a free stamp set with every $0 you purchase. If I can answer any questions, let me know.

That should be free stamp set with every $50 of product you purchase.
Hello Ladies! Thank-you all for chiming in with your suggestions! Katescrafs are sold out :( and I didn't realize that Joanns.com sells the big shot on line! Guess I will wait for a 50 % coupon!!!
Hi! I went to Joanns.com yesterday found the b.s. and other goodies (nothing was on sale) also found a coupon code for 50% off. Went to check out couldn't use the coupon code!! Not good on die cutting machines!! Bummer!! :(:( Oh well low & behold something will eventully turn up!!
I posted the new Joanns coupon policy on the thread about where to buy a cheap Cuttlebug. They state on the coupon that die cutting machines and accessories are excluded.
Right after Christmas I read a lengthy article regarding the new philosophy of businesses regarding discounting. Many said they are no longer going to offer deep discounts they are "adjusting" their inventory
( buying much less) rather than being forced to deeply discount the products .
They realize the consumers will buy less, but the businesses will make a larger profit on the items they do sell.
This concept may work with clothing, furniture, etc. However, hobby supplies are totally a discretionary purchases. People are resourceful and may turn to used products at garage sales and on forums ; form groups to share supplies or just use what they have. Woman will never stop doing crafts they will just approach them differently.
