Well, I have some good news and bad news.
First, the bad news.....I have just noticed on the demonstrator website that most of the Canadian prices for Stampin' Up product will be going up with the new catalogue. I wanted to give you the heads-up, and encourage you to stock up on any cardstock, ink pads, ribbons and anything else, before the prices increase as of July 1st. (From the products I can sneak-peek at, it looks to me like the ink pads will go up to $7.25, the single-color 8.5X11 cardstock packs will be at $7.25 and and the assorted packs at $10.50.)
Here's Stampin' Up's explanation of why the prices will be going up.
Price Increase
May 29, 2009
You will notice a price increase of about 10 percent for products in the upcoming 2009-2010 Idea Book & Catalogue. The price of the Demonstrator Starter Kit and other supply items will also increase.
We evaluate product pricing based on a number of factors. While the exchange rate is only one factor in pricing considerations for Canada, dramatic changes in the exchange rate are cause for price adjustments. Because the Canadian dollar weakened seven months ago and has seen limited recovery since then, we have found it necessary to adjust our prices.
Too bad, but...Now the good news.....you can beat the price increase! If you are getting low on anything, please let me know before June 15th what you want to order, or you can order online and have it shipped to you. This way you can get the current prices, and save some money! Think about the items you will want for the fall (even Christmas cards!) and order now!
