You gals should visit the another Burnaby Winners store down on Marine Drive.
It's located right next to Michaels. It's huge there. And lots of scrapbooking supplies there.
Oh, by the way, this Sat. ...

Hey, I went to that Winners location on Tue... but I don't see lots of scrapbooking supplies... is that in the Homesense area? or a different area?
That's what I worry. when I watched the youtubes, seems like the spellbinders are so so easy to get thru the B-plate. However, the spellbinders are so nice lor.
Last time I went to Scrapbooking Warehouse and said I wanted a cuttlebug machine~
They suggest me to get the "Big Shot" machine which was onli $20 more~
The sales said that they sell the Big Shot way more than the Cuttlebug, like 1:50~
She said the with the Big Shot u can use not onli Cuttlebug, but Sizzix, Originals, and those brass stencils that they sell in Scrapbooking Warehouse~
So far I like the Big Shot a lot~
Also another option~
FYI - I find that spellbinders at Scrapbooking Warehouse are cheaper compared to MMWS even after member's discount, just by a buck or two though. And Scrapbooking Warehouse has way more choices. Too bad, I don't drive and only been to go to Scrapbooking Warehouse once.
Actually I watched a few videos about how we can use cuttlebug with Sizzix, Originals, and those brass stencils, spellbinders, and etc. I guess we can still use the cuttlebug for different brands of dies/folders.
Where exactly is Scrapbooking Warehouse? Does it near the Canada Linke (Marine Dr/Oak) Station at all?
Actually I found the store in Granville Island has the best price on spellbinders. But the differences are couple cents less (to $1), compare to Scrapbook warehouse.
Scrapbook warehouse is 8932 Oak street. (Just south of S.W Marine Dr). If you get off from Canada Line (Marine station) I think you need to walk about 15 minutes (from cambie to Oak).
I think big shot is better (it's bigger (can emboss bigger area/bigger card), and easier to work with diff things). But it's also more expensive and takes more space. Depending what you want. If you don't mind paying $20 more than the cuttlebug, and have enough space, then Big Shot is definitely better.
The spellbinders will leave a mark on B-Plate when it goes thru cuttlebug. But don't worry, it won't break it (unless you force it to go through).
