Just wondering if there's a coupon in it and if it's 40% or (hopefully) 50%. I will need an airbrush for a cake I'm doing next week and a 50% coupon will save me an extra $15, but it would really stink if there's no coupon at all.

If you got AC Moore's coupon then you can use it in
Michaels also.
And I think it's never happened that there is no coupon at all.
Don't worry.

Thanks

I have a friend who works at Michael's and she said there will be a 40% off coupon in the ad every week until Christmas.

They have had one every weekend since the beginning of October and I have really racked up. I have saved so much using that coupon every week on big ticket items.

You probably know this, but you can also use JoAnn's coupons at Michael's. If you sign up to get the JoAnn's preferred customer acct. you get coupons in the mail and through email - I have more than I know what to do with and I sew, paint and do cakes. I rarely even use the one in the Sunday paper.

Yes.. I looked for mine today (as I do faithfully every Saturday) and in Michigan, we have 2 - 50% off coupons. a 1 Day only (Sunday) and another 50% coupon, which will be for 2 Days only. In addition, there is the typical 40% off coupon.


Needless to say I WILL be stocking up.

I got two newspapers yesterday and neither of them has a Michaels add in it, so no coupon! Wonder what happened to ours? Janice

Hobby Lobby also has a coupon online (printable) for 40% off one item. There are limitations but not in the cake decorating area.

Can one get an airbrush system at Michaels? Which aisle would it be in? Thanks

They're under lock & key by the good paintbrushes and paints - the fine arts supplies.

I have never followed the airbrush debates up until this point as I thought they would be too expensive for me....however....are you all saying that I can purchase an airbrush system from Michaels? Isn't there a specific kind of system needed for cakes? Or does everyone use a standard airbrush system with airbrush colours for cakes?

Very interesting......

You can use any airbrush, you just have to make sure the compressor isn't so strong it blows holes in the cake. A psi between 10-20 will usually do the trick.
The airbrush is usually sold separately from the compressor, but Kopykake packages them together.

DH has a full-sized compressor with a regulator in the garage, so I just set it on the pressure I need and run the hose into the kitchen. Next summer I will will probably spend the money for my own compressor so I don't have to let all the hot air from the garage in.
