Every year my father and I go shopping on Black Friday. This year I was on the search for some letterboxing supplies that might be on sale. We got up at 5am and we were off to Staples. I was looking for some little blank books that I have gotten there for log books along with some boxes. I did not find any. I did, however, find pink stuff. Well that's what I thought at first. It was really just a clip board.
The only thing I ended up getting there was a reciete book for the craft show next weekend.
We then went to Radio Shack and then to Star Bucks. I got a hot chocolate. We were waiting for Micheal's to open at 7am and we had about 30 minuets till so we waited at the coffee shoppe. I waited forever for my hot chocolate to become warm since I don't like hot drinks. I was a bit hungry so I pulled out half of a little loaf of bread from my bag. My dad game me the weirdest look. It was left over from Thanksgiving. I like bread....
At Micheal's I didn;t find anything on sale that I could use for making boxes or anything. I couldn't remember what all I needed for my LTCs but I was looking at a heat gun for embossing. I didn;t find one nor was anything embossing related on sale. Nothing of Tim Holtz was on sale either and I did print out any coupons. Now the Micheal's I normally shop at doesn't have any carving material or any sort of speedball stuff. But... at this Micheal's... they had pink stuff! They had a 6x12 sheet!
I have been going up to Hobby Lobby to get a small sheet of pink stuff. I didn't get any even though I really wanted to. I ended up getting jewelery bags for the craft show.
After that we went to Best Buy and Tractor Supply and went home. Latter that day I went out with my aunt. Our first stop was at Pack Rat Comics. I walked in and started looking around. When the owner came up stares and I turned around he said, "You have a hitchhicker!" "What?" I replied confused. "You have a hitchhicker!" "Oh, yeah! They told me online." He handed me the hitchhiker and I looked at it then put it back explaining that it stayed there.
The rest of the day was rather unproductive in the letterboxing world. I ended up just getting Christmas and business related stuff.
So I mentioned a craft show a few time. Next weekend Tyrus and I are selling hand made duct tape and recycled products. Our little business is called R3 art. If anyone lived in the West Jeff area here in Columbus, Ohio, feel free to stop buy our booth at the West Jeff High School on December 1st, 9-2. If any letterboxer brings their sig stamp to do an exchange they will get 10% off their purchase if they choose to buy!
