Want to pick your brain for a minute...

I'm hoping to get some comments about where you find your best deals on dies.

I'm wanting to buy a few new ones (got a few dollars from selling a few cards) and I've always waited for what I felt were the best sales - and then end up finding I've missed even better sales and better values (like free shipping or really reduced shipping) within a matter of days.  So very frustrating, especially if you have a tight, tight crafting budget like me.

Now I own a fair amount of the basic dies (most of them I've won) like Spellbinder Nestabilities.  And I do own a few of the smaller misc. shapes of various Companies dies (like a couple of Verve and 3-4 from Simon Says.
AND, maybe more importantly, I only have the cuttlebug, no other machines, so they must be compatible.

So let me know where you shop for the best bargains!! I'd love to know.  Oh, I am in the US - so keep that in mind too.

I found a company called Icon UK think it's a computer company but for some reason they sell a fair selection of different brands of dies and so far they are the cheapest I've found. I know I'm in the UK but many of the dies are shipping free ,not sure if that's the same for overseas but it might be worth a look, hope this helps.

Thanks Julye. I checked them out and they do appear to have tons of dies. Shipping added may be too much, but I'll have to check that out too.

I usually buy it form Joann.com. They always have 40% off on spellbinder dies plus free shipping is an added advantage.

Thanks Diane. I'm starting to get a few now, and I love them. I hadn't heard of a couple of these places, so thanks!
