    Nope, only 3 people in the WHOLE state, me, Candi and mooretll :lol: :roll: :lol: :mrgreen: since mooretll said she got hers yesterday, that means yours is going to either me or Candi and the one mailed earlier goes to the other one of us :thumbup: :mrgreen: :thumbup:

    I buy things when they are on sale and don't count anything that is from my stash or that I have made for my pal in the $10. When I find things that are a really good deal I stock up in my swap box. By doing this I have managed to stay within the $10 limit and put together nice packages. Some people include the stash items in their $10 budget but many of us do not. It is a personal preference on how to deal with stash items.

    I do the same thing. I check Tuesday Morning, LQS's sale items, and sometimes I get lucky with sale things at Hobby Lobby as well and I buy and stash it away in my SP box. Matter of fact I already have my June pkg ready, only waiting on a name to personalize it. And I don't count what I use from my stash as well. I also do not count any candies or goodies from my area that I add.

    Thrift stores are other places for brand new fabric and notions. I've picked up some great things for almost nothing.

    I also notice nobody's mentioned shipping to Ga...my mail lady's awfully lonely...make her make me happy ;)

    I live in merry ole England so it could be me. This month has gotten away from me but I will post SP package tomorrow just have to complete one thing. My SP has already posted looking for her package so sorry it will take at least 10 days by the time it clears customs. Will let you know when it is definitely posted and give a clue or two. Eileen
