So I bought the Cricut machine…

I went to A.C. Moore yesterday and got it for the advertised $129.99.  Mike drove me there, since I have trouble driving in the dark.  We decided to have dinner at the bar of TGI Friday’s, which is in a different shopping center, but on the way home from the A.C. Moore shopping center.

They have a Michaels in that shopping center, and I knew that they had Cricut cartiridges on sale for $49.99.  These normally sell for something like $89.99, so this is a good deal.  I bought one cartridge there, Opposites Attract.  I really like the versatility that I can get out of this one.  It looks like ALL of the cartridges are very versatile, but this one really hit mye eye as the first one I’d like to have.

Well, not really the first, because the machine comes with a cartridge with the “George” font and some basic shapes.

I haven’t yet taken anything out of the box but for the user’s manual…I was too busy last night watching the Red Sox game.  We watched part of it at the bar at Friday’s, listened to part in the car on the way home, and watched the rest at home.  I read through the manual during the commercials.

When the game was over and the Sox won…YAY SOX…I didn’t start to play with the machine because I don’t know how much noise it makes, and Mike had gone to sleep.

Anyhoo, I am going to play with it today…and after I do, I will write up a review of the product.
