Where to find cheap scrapbooking supplies?

Question

Does anyone know of a website (with Canadian Dollars) that I can find cheap scrapbooking supplies at? It's just so expensive at craft stores...

Answer 1

Have you tried a local thrift store or hope chest?

Walmart is pretty low key also on the price.

Answer 2

The cheapest are the ones you make yourself. There's no law that says you have to buy the stuff already made.In fact it's not really crafting if you are just assembling stuff you bought in a store.  Cut shapes from scrap material, old greeting cards, wrapping paper, even pretty napkins. Make your own brads from paper clips and polymer clay.

Answer 7

Walmart, Cosco and Office Depot are definitely "upping the competitive pricing game" for scrapbooking supplies.  They carry the more common supplies for WAY cheaper than anywhere else.

Then you can take advantage of the 40% off sales at Michaels for the rare or expensive supplies.  Even if it only applies to one product / purchase - that's okay.

Oh...and there is always the 40% off "entire line" sales at Clipper Street (in the Lower Mainland, British Columbia).

Both you discount coupons can get via their email newsletters.

PLUS...like previously mentioned - many of the dollar stores are starting to stock scrapbooking supplies (mostly stickers, small paper packs, glues etc).

But here are a couple of big secrets for you:

1) Ask your local print shops if you can take their BLANK paper / card cut offs.   You may be surprised at how much you can get and how quickly.

2) Also look at your regions Shopping Channel.  Mine (TSC) has a scrapbooking hour...and the deals are unbeatable there as well.  PLUS  depending on how much you spend - you can usually make "payments" on the product even though they ship it out to you.

Hope that helps dear.
