Get on mailing lists

Sign up for the mailing list at your favourite craft stores. Look for both email and snail mail versions. Many include coupons you can use to get extra discounts on already on sale items. I use my coupons to buy the more expensive craft items, like a package of blades for my rotary cutter or machine embroidery threads that are normally out of my craft budget range. They are also great resources for crafting ideas and tips, and keep you up to date with current craft trends. Two of my favourites are Spotlight (www.spotlight.com.au) and Lincraft (www.lincraft.com.au).
