| - I am a HUGE scrapbooker, and this scrapbook store is probably the best one I have found here in the valley so far. The selection here is huge, and the prices are fair and reasonable. Lots of paper, ribbon, stickers and other wonderful scrapbooking items to choose from. The staff is wonderful, and actually help you with anything you may need. If you have layout questions, need help with getting the right ribbon, or just questions in general, they really take thier time to answer the question and help you!
They also have a really good setup where if you put your name in the computer, you get monthly discounts, and an extra discount for your birthday. I think once you spend $100 with the store, you also get an additional discount as well. They keep a running total of how much you have spent in the computer under your name,and you get an additonal discount once you've hit your $100 mark.
The store also has a lab as well, and they hold classes regularly. I think they charge for most classes, but there may be 1 or 2 that are free. Check with store on the classes and charges. If you do work in the lab, they will let you run a tab, so you dont have to pay every time you want to get something for your scrapbook.
The store also has scrap night, for $15, which is pretty typical. Usually run Friday and/or Saturday nights, and its a blast. Hourly drawings, worth the $$, and its a lot of fun.
Here are the only negatives I could find about the store:
A) They charge $5 fee to use the lab. I don't like paying for lab time, since most other scrapbook stores will let you use thier lab for free.
B) I like to use the lab to scrapbook. It gets me out of the house, I get to meet other scrapbookers, and I can get supplies that I need as I work. Being the working professional woman that I am, the only free time I have to scrapbook is the weekends. What I DONT like, is that getting into the lab is near impossible on the weekends. Why? Becuase when they hold classes, the lab is off limits to open scrapbookers like me. What this means, is that I can shop, but if I am having a scrapbooking weekend, I can't go into the store, and Im stuck scrapping at home. If theres a class going on, they will not allow you to go in and scrapbook off to the side. I dont like that.
C) They are closed on Sundays! Argh! I wish they would have Sunday hours, but for some reason, they dont.
