Are you the type of person who needs a new item in your hot little hands from a store or will you order online and wait for the item?
Well both, see here in Mexico where I live the availability of scrapbooking supplies is very rare we find some supplies in Office Depot, Office Max but is more like trimmers and some Fiskars products but we don´t get products like Cosmo Cricket or Basic Grey or Prima, so that is ordered so is not that I like ordering online but I have no choice, I have to pay a little higher shipping to get "cool" stuff, but is ok is actually cheaper to buy from the States and pay shipping than buying from LSS in other areas in Mexico (much more expensive).
When we found out about the Fiskars Stamp Press Kit being sold at Costco we ran there and got one about an hour after we´ve been told so we are an antxy bunch over here, but buying on line teaches you to be patient and that is a virtue and actually the main fear is that it will not arrive but we are starting to trust our mailman and being extra nice and friendly to him so he knows we are the crazy ones that order so much.
Also I made this collage and wanted to post it but I always forget so here it is, hope you like it, it makes me happy when I see it.

That's kinda funny, because I guess I never really thought about there being Office Max and Costco, or all those stores that I take for granted, in Mexico. Who knew?
Hey girl, I have a Pooh planner too! And I love Walter Matthau (Bad News Bears and Cactus Flower are my fave movies of his); I do love choco ice cream; and your layouts are so pretty! Just catchin up with ya in a spare momento...
I order online sometimes just b/c I'm too lazy to go to the store. LOL The only scrapbooking store near me anymore is Archiver's - but it's a good 30min plus drive and completely out of the way. Sometimes I'll make the trip, but I have to limit myself - very easy to spend a lot of $$! ;)
Enjoyed your post & mosaic!
I love your collage! What a great idea. I think my favorite square is the fifth one down in the middle of the row -- cookies -- Yummmmmmy! :-)
Love your collage! I'm still figuring Flikr out, but your favs are gorgeous! Off to prowl your blog, sorry I haven't visited for a while!
I agree with Miss M! I never thought of Office Max and Office Depot in Mexico. I'm glad you have at least some access to stuff there.
And I love your collage. Very pretty and colorful
Hey! I left you a small tag on my blog. Check it out. :)
