I was wondering how many of you would be more inclined to buy it if HSN offered it on flex payments. I'm hoping they do carry it! It would more affordable to me than having to shell put that money at once. Just curious.

Don't know about making payments but my big decision is to buy the cakie cricut or just the regular one. Is it worth the extra money?

I would buy with HSN flex payments. I am also keeping my eyes on Amazon.com, they also have very good prices.

I'm hoping that some retailers or HSN will have some really good product debut deals, so I won't have to hand out 400.00 for it when it comes out.

Actually HSN is offering a good deal for like $220. And you can make $50 dollar payments on it. My cousin had just told me about the deal she got on hers! Im still trying to figure out whether I want to even pay that much for it!

weirkd - $200 - Are they offering a pre-order sale for the cricut cake machine?

Not that Im aware of. All I know that my cousin showed me was the two different deals on the packages. One was the expression and one was another with less extra's involved for the same amount of money.

puh-lease. The only cool thing about the Cake Cricut is the cartridge. Buy the Personal at JoAnn this week for $85. Then buy SCALfor $75. You're all set.
