My Winkflash Album - What a great deal!

Ok - One of my hobbies is finding a great deal. Anyone who knows me can attest to this fact. Anyway, for the last almost 7 years I have been an avid "scrapbooker". The last year it has felt more like a chore than a hobby. I kept looking back at pages I had done years before and thought they looked hideous! I figured in 20 I will think it all looks hideous and the time I put into "decorating" would be in vain. After all, the pictures are what everyone wants to look at anyway, right? (And let me say to all of you die hard scrapbookers - I still think it is a beautiful craft, but for me, personally, it became a chore - I don't want any scrappy hate mail:) -

So I started looking for alternatives ways to display photos. I love to take pictures of my kids but I was just putting them in a big organization box. (Creative Memories has a great photo storage box, contact your rep or check ebay). I found some great leather books with room for journaling at Tj Max and Marshalls. They have been great for everyday pictures. My sweet mother in law pics them up whenever she finds one. I like that they are all the same style so I can display them on a shelf nicely. I kept looking for a way to display "special" event pictures and one day I found it ........... Drum roll if you please,

WINKFLASH! I created the greatest little album by uploading pictures and choosing placement in a great hard back album. They even emboss it for FREE! With the discount I had a custom 50 (front and back) page album for $30 including shipping. The greatest part was I had signed up for an account with them and they sent me sale emails. They sent a sale code and I got the book for 40% off. I have received so many compliments on this book. You can check them out at www.winkflash.com . (And no, I don't work for them!) I ended up getting 9 months worth of pictures in one book. You can choose how many pictures you want on each page and even journal. Ok - one more thing about how great winkflash is and then I'll be done. This week I received a sale code for their gift items for a father's day promotion. I ordered great father's day gifts that I know will be treasured for years to come!
