Wishblade on HSN Mon 3/5/07

[SplshMtn99]

According to Xyron's website, the new Wishblade is supposed to be on Home Shopping Network on 3/5/07. I'm not sure which scrapbooking hour segment its going to be in during their programming. I'm going to be watching & taping at midnight (sun pm/ mon am) just in case.

The VCR is set. So, while I get a Wishblade before I even get Tivo?

 

[SILLYANDI]

I've never bought anything from HSN- is it cheaper when they show it on TV than their online price?

If not, then you can go buy it now and get it 1 day earlier!!

 

[SplshMtn99]

It should be the same price online as on air....BUT if its the special item of the day on Monday, the price will be lower. At midnight, they announce the special item & demo it. So....wait till midnight at least.

Oh crap. Why did I open this thread??? I just had to keep my willpower after seeing an awesome cookware set on QVC. Now this!!! OK - gotta save for Disney, gotta save for Disney, gotta save for Disney...

 

[SplshMtn99]

He said I can get one!!!! Of course, I think he was 1/2 asleep when he said it, but, he did say it.

 

[SalandJeff]

You can get it for 5 easy payments of $89.98 and over a third are gone already (I think they only have 2700 for the entire day).

Congrats! So is it cheaper on the show than on the website? We only get QVC here I so wish I had the money for this right now!

 

[jenr812]

LOL We posted at the same time!

 

[SplshMtn99]

Same price as website. So I went & ordered on the web & picked 5 easy payments.

 

[jenr812]

I am so jealous! Can't wait to hear your review

 

[jenr812]

I am seriously salivating looking at the HSN webpage right now DH was going to get me one for Christmas but I told him not to (partly because I knew the new ones were coming out, partly because it was so expensive and totally out of our budget for Christmas, and partly because I KNOW I don't have the time to properly play with it right now til I am done with school.) But I still want one *pout* I told him he can get it for my birthday in August! It will be hard to wait that long though. Especially when we get back from Disney in June and I have tons of pics to scrap LOL

PS I really ramble on when I am tired Sorry!

 

[jenr812]

Hey, did you see online that if you buy more craft stuff today, you get discounted shipping? Such an enabler, I am Just living vicariously through you hehe

 

[SplshMtn99]

No, and I'm not looking. lol

I'll justify the Wishblade by saying I never bought any Sizzix or other die cuts things -- knowing I could only use them at the size they were at. And I have over 1000 fonts already in my computer.

Besides, I deserve it.

 

[SILLYANDI]

OK, reading all of your posts, especially the one about not buying the sizzix made me think I deserve it too. I would have spent at least $400 on the sizzixs abd'c i wanted, right?
I do have a cricut, but that doesn't count-I bought it on clearance at Walmart and I have a friend who offered to buy it from me-I think I'll take her up on the offer now...Off to buy on hsn now!

It's so unfair!! I deserve one, too!

OK whining over...for now!

You can get the new Wishblade for $399 (free shipping) at the Yahoo wishblade forums. The founder Martha Jackson sells them and she includes a CD of fonts and clips as well. I just bought mine, she ships quick as well.

Well DH was looking at it, as we can still take back the Cricut and put the money towards the new Wishblade.....BUT then he saw how much the replacement blades are. Is it really $49 to get three new blades or can you get a better deal else where?

 

[rlovew]

You can get slightly better prices but replacement parts are fairly expensive.
