Is it normal for a bride to spend 275 bucks at AC Moore?????

Oh... my... God. I was literally sweating as she totalled everything up!!!

Cardstock, cocktail hour vases and bowls, 13 boxes of 6 ornaments per box, sand, shells, ribbon, 'WE DO' letters, paint, foam, program paper, wax stamps, table card paper, vellum... 275 smackaroos! And that was AFTER 25% off!!!

Is this normal?? Am I insane?? I won't even tell my FH the total... he just carried the bags/boxes in the house for me and said, 'can we make this month's mortgage?' (only HALF joking... lol)

I never spent that much at once, but I bet if I totalled everything up it would be AT LEAST $275. Don't worry.

I am sure if you didnt DIY, it would cost at least double so dont worry.
Enjoy all your new crafts!

I am not all that crafty either. But once I set my mind on something I get pretty determined to get it done right.
There is sooo much help on the web, I am sure you will be OK. Just take you time. I see you arent getting married until Nov. so start now instead of rushing thru everything in Oct.

I got to AC Moore almost every Sunday and buy 2 or 3 hurricane vases for our CPs...in my head I tell myself that spreading it out makes the money seem less, but I know its just in my head. You are not abnormal! Look at house much you save on DIY projects!!!

Altogether probably yes. Add all the small trips together that the rest of us make and it would probably be the same. You are fine!!!!!

If you think about how much you would have spent to have someone else do it, you saved a ton of money. Good for you and good luck putting everything together

I usually buy one item at a time with my coupon but, it's easy to drop that much money at a craft store! You got a lot of stuff for $275!
