   I do, however, feel much better about my $42 order of ten minutes ago…

   I know what you mean! And I’m looking again before the beads even come out of their little baggies! A sickness, I tell you!!!

   Heheh…same here…I put in an order last Sunday night…said I was going to do it before the Tuesday specials came out so I wouldn’t be tempted to add even more to by cart…and then people were talking about them on Tuesday…so what did I do? Put in another order on Tuesday! Oops!

   Let’s just say tnat I was able to get an absoulutely gorgeous strand of aquamarine rondelles free this week. That is why I haven’t even peeked at the BGBM in three days. I didn’t know I had that much will power.

   The LB guys are evil geniuses (sp? – it’s late and that does not look right) are they not – I place my orders on thurs or fri so I can get in my Tues Lunch Specials as well as new beads on Thurs. All the while maneuvering around BGBM expiration times – it’s a juggling act!

    It was so much fun when the package came Thursday. And the best part was I got to the mail before my husband – LOL
    So here’s my justification – I got a few green girl pendants and 4mm beads to make graduation gifts for some of Sam’s friends. I’m thinking about a craft show in a few weeks so I need stock. Or at least one last display at school. The problem is now that I have all these beads – I need ss findings. I’ve got several pieces strung and no closed jump rings or ear wires.

    Shannon aka Silly Chick says:

    OOps! SS findings are stupid priced – I know silver’s gone up, but little bitty packs of jump rings for 3,4,&5$, It’s lunacy – but what are ya gonna do – silver plate won’t always get it in a piece where you’re already using SS…Best go on and get what you need – enough to hold you for a while – This is what I tell myself, anyway!

    I know what you mean, Shannon. Just wish other sites shipped as quickly as LB. I need instant gratification. I’ll probably run into AC moore or michael’s tomorrow when I take my husband to the airport. I cleaned out the little shop’s stock of 4mm closed on Mon. (she didn’t have much to start out) I like to use them at the end of a piece and then attach the clasps. increased flexibility.

    Those little packs of ss at Michaels are good quality but so pricey when you only get, what, maybe 6 rings? Maybe they’ll be on sale!! Know what you mean about the shipping – I ordered yarn a month or so ago and waited almost 2 weeks for it – I was livid! Seems to me that if one place can manage to get my things here in three days OR LESS, then the rest of ‘em could do the same! Guess that’s not reasonable, but LB has completely spoiled me – another of their evil plots!! HAHA!

    I know – I usually only get them when they 1/2 price. I have a few 40% coupons from AC moore so I might hit both stores. did you know they honor competitors coupons?

    Shannon aka Silly Chick says:

    No I didn’t – I think a lot of retailers realize that they have to go the extra mile to get us in the door these days!

    Sam’s prom – I forgot! I’ll bet she looked gorgeous! What a special night for her!! I’m not a mom, but I think I’d be on pins until my child got home! Did she wear a piece you made?
