Darcy Scraps

The first time I saw the Clip It Up storage system online I knew I had to have it! Then I saw the price tag :( As much as I loved the idea of having embellighments out where I could see them (and be inspired to use them) and still have them organized I couldn't rationalize the expense.

Then I got an email from one of my lss. I had pretty much quit this store because they sent their customers what I considered a very offensive email at Christmas. The email invited customers to open the most important present under the tree and accept Jesus in your heart as god's gift to you. It even invited those troubled with spiritual doubt to contact the ladies at the shop for help! I bit my tongue when they played Christian music in the store and even when they displayed posters for religious events and religious symbols in the store. But this email had me seeing red. I certainly do not want a store I patronize to attempt to press their spiritual beliefs on me.

So this email was a coupon for 40% off any item in the store including the new Clip It Up which had just arrived. Oh so tempting! But could I really give my money to a business that had offended me so? I went to two other scrapbook stores but no one else had Clip It Up. I broke down. I went in and bought only the Clip It Up base and upper tier. I used my coupon and I got a great deal. Seems a witch's money is as good as any others.
