Hassy

Evening.. just about..
It's raining here.. hoorah!!! We have a hose pipe ban, so it will do the garden some good..
Rainmac You did have some sweet and sour news.. but glad you have been taken on by the other lady...
Wannab Thanx for the tip re subscription for the mag... Good luck tomorrow, I am sure it is a cancellation appointment...
Kms A couple of codes found in the mags I have... http://www.craftsuperstore.co.uk has 10% off if you use the dicount code MCM18 at checkout.
10% off at checkout at http://www.craftybargains.co.uk if you use XE175251

I just look at the advertisements in the mags and make a note of the codes.. sometimes I don't use them, but they could be of some use to someone on here??

I went shopping today at a retail park and they had a hobby craft so it would have been rude not to go in and spend the odd £20 lol
For that i got 1x spring 5 pk promarkers 1x pk summer promarkers :j

I haven't been on this thread before, so apologies everyone for jumping in.

Thanks for posting this. I have wanted promarkers for ages but couldn't afford them at full price. It's my birthday in a couple of weeks, so I asked my Mum to buy me 6 packets of Promarkers for less than £30. :j

Addams - I'm using proper Epson cartridges atm. Although have bought some Tesco ones to try.

Peppop - was Tesco own cartridges that caused the problem?

Hassy

Louby you got a great amount of stash for your money...
Elysia Hello... Hobbycraft is cheapest for Promarkers at the mo.. don't know when the offer finishes tho, the girls at my local one said in July.. when I'm not sure...???
Flourgirl I hope you enjoy Doncaster if you go.. it looks like there will be a few good exhibitors there...

Thankyou Hassy. I ordered them online and then asked Mum to pay me back.

Addams

Thanks wannabrich. I have had epsons before and used the compatible ones and never had a problem. But with my canon printer I have loads of problems. Hopefully its just the make! I saw 4 sets of cartridges for £24.99 here. So if they are ok, you can save a fortune, to spend on lots more craft!
Hope your hospital appointment is good news. I'm sure it was just a cancellation.

Hassy

Just had a brain wave.. a very rare event.. :idea: don't know if it has been done before or mentioned, but has anyone swapped any of their duplicate promarkers on here with others??

I wanna go to Doncaster! ... Wonder if I can sweet talk oh, is this the one at the racecourse? Or am I being thick?

Sorry been busy all afternoon, made another seed pcket but it looks awful, had to post it to step mum, she will probably think kids have made it though so that's good lol!

Can't stop just got back from the school induction meeting for nursery starters!

Thanks for the links flour girl, already have one, but will add other tomorrow!

Hassy

HI Rusty... No, not being thick... it is at racecourse...

Hassey I might go to the Doncaster show, my friend asked me ages ago, can't remember if she wanted to go on the friday though.

Has anyone had anything from Payper Box, for some reason I missed it at the NEC, I was thinking patterned card for boxes etc.

Rainmac my Wild Rose Studio papers came this morning For Men and In love with Japan, they are absoloutely gorgeous.

Congrats on going back to the cake shop and those lovely craft stash pennies.lol.

Flourgirl i'm sure helen from fiddlefart and her friend craft fairy bought loads of card from payper box at the nec for making boxes etc They buy loads and swear by it i remember reading it on helens blog.
