Tag Supplies Cost-Yikes!

I was talking to someone on another group who is doing the Tim Tags, too. She wondered how much the supplies for all the tags would cost if you went out and bought them. I had just seen the lists at Stampers Anonymous yesterday so this morning, I added them all up. I removed all the duplicate items once they were 'purchased' on a previous tag. This also includes all the tools he used whether from Ranger or someone else.
And so here it is:

Tag 1-$216.75
Tag 2- 102.40
Tag 3- 128.50
Tag 4- 67.50
Tag 5- 57.35
Tag 6- 71.75
Tag 7- 45.85
Tag 8- 37.15
Tag 9- 60.75
Tag 10-43.90
Tag 11-75.34
Tag 12- 9.90

for a grand total of $917.14

:happywave: :happywave: :happywave:

I don't know about you but I'm glad I improvise!

Wow, glad I didn't feel the need to purchase them all. I purchased a few things and that did damage enough.

Boy, I'm glad I improvised too! Even though I have alot of the supplies, I've been collecting them for 3 years now, so at least I've spread the cost out a little. :-o

WOW....this is amazing. Don't let my hubby read this thread. HA HA

Of course, I didn't have half the products he suggested so there was a lot of improvisation going on here but still........

Now I remember why I don't have all those items and why my cards are always so plain and simple......

Boy, if DH sees this, you're in big trouble. ;)

Yep - we're keeping the economy from completely tanking.

So you're saying I should take out a rider on my home owner's insurance to cover the small Banana Republic GNP I've invested in crafting supplies?

Not a bad idea . . .

Makes me wonder if the local HazMat team knows what I've got running around my house.

BTW: Did ya include the cost of the manila tags too?

Oh, yeah, Kelli, the tags took a whopping $3 out of the total and you get 20!! That's the best deal of all!

I didn't think of inquiring spouses when I posted this topic. Maybe it should be one of those "for our eyes only" topics. :cool5:

Wow! I have been spreading out the supplies myself. I did place and order but it wasn't near that much.

and now you see why Tim can afford all those trips to Disneyland! Ofcourse he's keeping the on-line and LSS in business too I suppose!

I'd love to order some things, but right now I just can't justify it. Maybe if I request nothing but Tim things for Christmas? I did check on the muffler tape and what they have locally isn't any wider than the tape that I already have. Got to figure out how to double it without a bad seam showing.

perhaps we could show our spouses all of our beautiful tags and Marianne's price list and show them exactly how much money we saved by NOT buying supplies.. :cardmaking:

I've always joked that Tim Holtz has a suite in his Maui condo named after me! After seeing the tally I am now convinced that it is true!
