Scrappin’ Goodtime

this store is a great little scrapbooking store deep in the heart of texas! i don’t live anywhere near here, but my family had some business to take care of in corsicana, so i dropped on by, cause i’m a major scrapbooking fan (yeah, can you tell here on Unilocal?that and getting my car washed, it seems) anyway…
the store has lots of what you’d expect. a good selection at reasonable prices. they’re the typical ‘way over michael’s/joann’s” prices but that’s what you expect in a dedicated scrap store. the thing i like about this store is that it’s not ALL marriage/​graduation/​freaking baby. it’s not too «cutesy»
there are also some BIG discounts. when susie, the owner, wants to get rid of something, she’s not above BLOWING it out. i got great papers (with glitter!) and cut outs and such for about 10¢ each! woo hoo!
that all said, our friend susie is a MAJOR talker. while that’s a good and bad thing (she’s GREAT at advice and simple show-​me type stuff) it’s a turn off in that she seriously doesn’t know when to quit. as a first-​timer, it was a bit off putting… just let me shop… and spend my money, ya know?
the location is fine… easy to find, LOTS of parking, and there are several nearby restaurants should you be scrapping there for hours and need a nibble break. no, i wasn’t there that long, and frankly didn’t care about the restaurants. but i learned that all from susie. :)
