So, I went to the final closing day of a Ben Franklin's craft store in Sparks this morning. There is another Ben Franklin's in town, but they have different owners, so a lot of the merchandise is different. We went on Thursday,and they had merchandise at 80% off--wow, what a discount! And, there was still quite a bit of stuff left. But today, they said if you paid $5 for a bag, you could fill it with whatever would fit, and you could buy more than one bag. They opened at 9, and I wanted to get there early, but didn't get up on time, and we got there around 10. Well---------in the parking lot, there was a lady going to her car with about 5 bags in a cart, and we were hopeful, until we saw the CLOSED sign on the door. The man at the door said everything was gone, save a few packets of quilting patterns, some prints to hang on the wall, and a few bits of Christmas-looking stuff. Ack! We missed the entire thing!! Later, at the fabric store next door, we heard that there was a mob there at 9 and they cleaned everything else out.
Oh well...in about a week, we are headed down to L.A. and I can get my craft store thing on there....
In other news, I have been busy designing a zine to give out with my Etsy orders. Soon, soon, I will be adding ACEOs to Etsy.....
