Good deal on address stamps

I usually buy these at Bering's or that children's & stationery store on Woodway.  I got an email from Tinyprints that they are 25% off today with the code DOD0908.

I personally have five of these and am contemplating buying a holiday one, to spruce up our Christmas cards even more. Tongue Tied  Pretty sure David is going to take away my internet if he's ever home when we get deliveries.  Between this, Erin Condren and Amazon Prime I am in trouble.  I might never leave the house to shop again.

I am LOVING all these online deals for frou-frou things lately. :)

  • Here's where my cheapo side is exposed.  I use whatever labels come in the mail from the various organizations I donate to or work with.

    I used to.  I'm quite possibly needing a hobby besides checking my email for good deals during naptime.  If only I were so diligent about laundry.  Huh?

    I do too, but only the ones that have my name spelled right! 

    I will make some for Christmas cards/birth announcements.  Those aren't exectly Ziggy appropriate!

    I was pretty excited yesterday to get some with American flags on them.  That's appropriate for any occassion.

    Same here.  I either make them or I order through Vista Print when they have free label deals.

    I get so excited when we get "nice" ones... like ones that have simple flowers, or flags.

    I use the free ones or if I feel matchy I get them from VistaPrint. I got some to match G's birth announcements (they were just baseballs, so also multi purpose) and I *just* used them all up when I mailed out B's birth announcements. I think I got some to match G's baptism invites too, which I used for Christmas cards because they had a cross on them. I think I've spent $5 total on them in my whole married life.

    I have two that I bought from Etsy.  :)

    Which is exactly why I pretty much never get to use the free ones. I only use them on the occasional bill that I mail, so maybe 2x a year. Otherwise, the kids get to play with them

    I have an embosser, which I love. It was a housewarming gift.

    we actually know some people who own a rubber stamp company here in Houston (2nd generation, family owned) and they gave it to us when we moved in to our current house.

    JLMOULD was great to work with. Mine isn't self inking (and was only about $16).

  • I am totally fine with my free self-inking stamp from Vistaprint.  It isn't something I am going to spend money on.

    ETA: I just clicked on the link.  $45!?!?!?  That is crazier than a $50 planner...I am such a cheapskate.

    ditto =)  I use the free ones. I did buy a $10 selfinking one that I hardly use because of all the free ones I get.
