For those of you that know me personally, you know that I’m THAT LADY at the grocery store with ALL THE COUPONS

Michelle, a fellow tweet and blogger buddy, just posted her adventures in saving 92%!!!!

Couponing is not for the faint of heart, it takes time and patience, multiple trips, and perseverance.

Creatopia…mixed feelings

Have you heard about the latest and greatest from Xyron!!!? An ALL IN ONE machine! Cuts, embosses, laminates, applies adhesive, you can use metal dies, utilizes fancy cuts! It’s supposed to be the crafter’s swiss army knife! Check it out here.

I’m on the fence. I know this machine does it all, but it’s pricey and you need all the add-on components in order to REALLY get things going, which cost another $40. To me, it’s alright to have multiple tools…

Creatopia + 3 other functions

Creatopia and some more add-ons

Embossing add-ons

Add-on component for metal dies

Fancy cutting blades
