Yes, I have YG! That would be no problem. Are you around later and we can sort something out?

YG, let me know how many you want and what colours and I will sort them out for you.

I have been hovering over ebay the last few days trying to contain myself...but my credit card keeps jumping out of my purse and saying "buy more dies, buy more dies"

If you were buying one which do you think is the best offer
The ebay link works out at £26.95 inc P&P
OR
Just checked Cheapdies.com
They offer the sidekick for £31.95 Free P&P plus
The Sidekick comes with a start up kit containing 2 Sizzlit Dies enabling you to cut 7 shapes ! A flower, a leaf, a circle, 2 different hearts, a tag and a star. You'll also receive 5 strips of paper, pre cut to Sidekick width

Worth having a look at the sizzlit dies that come with the offer to see if you would actually use them.

The link on ebay also comes with a sidekick starter pack - worth investigating.

I actually prefer the sizzlits dies to the sizzix dies. They just seem to be better value for money and the dies are IMO so much nicer.

Have you got a sidekick JM, or do you cut sucessfully with the sizzix machine. I have heard a mixed opinion! I agree about the dies, I love the quickcutz dies too!

Is ebay the cheapest place to buy dies, or do you all get them elsewhere?

marne -- enjoy If you think you may get quite a few dies it may be worth looking for places that do a loyalty scheme. That way you can get some free goods.

Yorkiegirl -- I love that forum, everyone's so helpful!

jayzmummy -- IYWYM!!! it's so heavy!! I huff and puff just bringing it up and down the stairs. was thinking if bringing to a crop but it is sooooo heavy. may just cut some bits before I go.
