just to let you know... the debbi brown books are sold here onsite.. I didn't realize that myself until after the fact (as I posted a thread regarding them being in the abc book) I had Heath delete my post as the CC store is what keeps the website going for free... BUT that was my choice, NOT the moderators!!!! Heath did say though that because it was "wholesale" he'd let it fly for a bit..

just wasn't sure if you realized they had some of the products on-site :0)!

Thanks
bo


btw..great find!

Wow those are wonderful prices. I bought both of the Debbie Brown books for much more. Dang it!

I don't think I will order the decorating set as they are plastic and from what I've found plastic stuff doesn't hold up that well. But it would be great for kids to play with.

The cup cake stand is a super price too.

Just wanted to let everyone know that they can't give you a freight quote when you order so sometimes it's not as good as you'd think. I still love ABC but my sis threw a fit when she found that out. And delivery time is long too. I get my silicone bakeware from them and it's cheap and wonderful!!

I haven't received their catalog in over a year so I wasn't sure how ordering from them worked. I think I ordered one thing from them but don't remember how long it took, etc.. I'm looking at the order form now and it says shipping and handling charges are billed at the time of shipping and it depends on the size, weight and destination. They can't quote anything at the time the order is placed. They bill you upon delivery.

Just thought I'd put it out there for others to see.

I love that site although I've never ordered from there. I would love to get those books but don't want to be icon_surprised.gif shocked at the shipping charges. Anyone else use them and can tell us more about shipping $$?
TIA

I used to order from there with my coworkers (previous job), and the shipping was never that bad. I don't remember how much for example, but it was never a sticker shock issue.

Ok thanks Laura. I think with the prices of those books it will still be a great deal even if shipping is a little more than I expect.
Thanks again!!

Awesome deals! I love buying S-T-U-F-F! Makes me wish I had a business...icon_sad.gif

Oh well...

It'd be nice to get a slew of those kits and have decorating time with a group of interested kids!

Hey gals, just be sure and check the measurements of some items. They look great in the picture but when you get your measuring stick out and check it out sometimes the item is extremely small and does not look like the size shown in the picture.

That's funny. My Mom ordered me the books and 2 of the cupcake stands for an early birthday. I was so excited when she gave them to me early. (BDay not till November)

I love abc too. but when you get the bill after the s/h it's the same price if you buy it outside. I have paid anywhere from 4.95-8.95 for small stuff. it's crazy. i've been trying to stay away from it for that reason. Stuff don't come as quick as you wish they would either.

Their shipping can be a little high sometimes and sometimes they have shipped one little thing to me in a huge box and then sent the rest of my order in another box the next day. Don't get me wrong though, a lot of their prices are really good. I think the best way to do it is to take up an order from a lot of friends and then split the shipping costs. It seemed to work out for the ladies at my work that way.
