(News was last updated 12/31/07 –
Bookmark this page & check it every morning. I update it about a dozen
times a month!)
• My
Space: Did you know that Cool Scrapbook Stuff
has a MySpace???
WE

OH! And send me a quick note, too, so that I know that it is not spam!!!
That way you will get added quicker!

Fire Victims:
I know
that a lot of you have been asking if we are planning anything for the fire
victims. I have posted it before, but in case you haven’t seen it – yes. I
have been working with the Mayor’s Office in Poway
plus I am coordinating with about 40 stores from LA on down plus about a
dozen manufacturers to create an event called “Operation Replenish”.
We
will be collecting unused paper & stickers (etc) and gently used tools
from anyone who wishes to donate. They will be given to those who suffered
a loss.
UPDATE:
we have been given permission by Rite Aid to use the vacant space in our
shopping center. We are planning the event for the middle of February now,
so start collecting items that you wish to donate!
I’ll
be in touch with more information as soon as I can secure a suitable
location.
Thanks
everyone!

to mention all of the reorder items!) AND, that doesn’t break out all of

12/31/07:
• And
More New Stuff:
·
Quickutz – it was their new
valentine’s release in the box. I’m not sure when we are “supposed” to put
it out, but we put it out yesterday.
·
7Gypsie’s – we received several
of their popular ATC card holders. Plus we got a few additional accessories
for the ATC holder.
·
Hampton Arts – it was a
portion of our Creative Café order – all of their ink pads to go with the
colours, plus their clear stamps and a few of their rubber stamps.
And we are just expecting one more box today from SEI and then
I’m DONE ENTERING BOXES (for two days… basic grey’s valentine’s line ships
later this week!)
• Sale: Don’t forget that today is
the last day of our sale. You
can save up to 30% on your entire shopping spree. Very few items are
excluded! Plus, we have Mimi totes at 50% off and Boxed Christmas cards at
75% off!
•
Hours: We
are closing early at 6pm this evening and will be closed tomorrow (New
Year’s Day). We will reopen on the 2nd and resume our usual hours.
12/30/07:
• More
New Stuff:
We are still
checking in our last few boxes of the year!
And it took most of Friday and all day Saturday, but we have the Creative Café FINALLY out!
I had been putting it off since early November
b/c I knew it would be a nightmare of epic proportions and, unfortunately,
I was right!
But,
we have it all and are working on getting it priced and out. FYI – RE: the
Buttons by the scoop… We are selling the buttons by the 4oz container, not
the 2oz scoop. So, while they might seem a little bit more expensive, the
MSRP on the 2oz scoop is $2.99 ($1.50 per oz) and we have the 4oz container
for only $4.99 ($1.25 per oz). But you can mix and match colors to get up
to your 4oz. you can seal the container and keep it in your shopping basket
while you shop around. And we will package them when you check out. We hope
it will be easier for you!
