Foxy Fairy Kit

[chrissie]

A little promo was just on for this, but I missed when the show was as my phone rang:(. Does anyone know what time it's on please?
Also it mentioned it was a star buy - but I seem to remember that it was this price when it was POTD/4 day deal?

Thank you in advance!

Hi Chrissie

The die cut oriental ladies have just been on and The Wonderland kit all at the original POTD/4 day deal prices! All Star Buys - so I wouldn't be surprised if it was - can't find it on the web though! Mind you it has just crashed!

[chrissie]

The Wonderland kit too?! Missed that then - can you remember the star buy price please ROC? When it was a POTD, I'm sure that it was £29.99 as well.
The Wonderland kit can be found on IW website, but can't find the Foxy Fairy kit anywhere.
Thanks ROC!

Sorry - 'nother "senior moment" - just read your post again, & see they are at the original POTD prices.

Come to think of it, I saw a little pre-recorded promo for the Christmas Shaker & Fabric card kit last night - billed as a Star Buy at $24.99, but I could have sworn that was the original POTD price...

The item no for the foxy fairy kit is 137098 but its not showing on the websites

[chrissie]

Yes, that price rings a bell with me for the Chrismas kit as well Welly.

Thanks very much for the no of the foxy fairy kit Jeanette. It disappeared from the website just after if was POTD/4day deal last time.

If I remember correctly, weren't they all in the last Craft Week? I really liked the Foxy Fairy & Midsummer Dreams kits, but held off in the hope of them being reduced. Wonder if that will happen now IW have an outlet shop?

Oh chrissie, if only you could see the outlet shop - it's groaning with fleaflots and tights type things to make fat ladies look thin (yes, I could do with one of those!).
Surprise surprise the qvc outlet shop sounds miles better!
In the few times I've been to the iw one they originally didn't have any craft at all and then upgraded to a very small section about the size of a tall bookcase. None of the kits are complete (as in drastically so - a crafty bitz set of cards without the decoupage sheets that match with them, a set of cards without the handmade embellishments that they were originally sold with etc).
Last time I went there were 3 floral simplicity sets (complete!), some xmas sets that were damaged, lightweight hearty clay, cosmic shimmer sets (actually a good bargain at half price of £7.49, wish I'd got one now) and various oddments.
By far the best place for old c&c stuff is pondskipper crafts. They have a shop in Peterborough that a friend regularly visits and gets great bargains in - practically complete wonderland kits, the bear necessity kit and floral versions thereof and loads of embellishment sets.
I think you can look the shop up online and they also sell on ebay. Am hoping to take a trip there after the hols as it involves several buses for me and DS would be moaning before he even got there!

Thanks very much for the description DD! Sounds like they just have the returns then. Hopefully the kits I'm interested in will be on an extravaganza hour in the future.
Thanks for the info on the other outlet, their site is currently under reconstruction at the mo & I can't find them on ebay, although I've only had a very quick look - will have a proper look later. I'm only about 2-3 hrs from Peterborough, so it might be worth a visit.

I can't find them on ebay

They don't have much at the moment, lots of glue though:D

No, they never have the stuff on ebay that my friend comes back with.
It's probably best to ring them before you go if you're coming that distance as sometimes they have nothing much and othertimes they have lots.
While you're in Peterborough you could check out Alan & Barry's shop too and Sir Stampalot. Not that I'm trying to tempt you at all!!

[chrissie]

Thank you DD!:)
What an absolute nightmare this place is! I've never come across so many "enablers" under one roof!:D
