I mentioned Creative Memories as a BOLO back in 2015. And holy heck were those some high prices I got! I’m still fuzzy on what is going on with the company, but I think some of the products have been reissued and probably aren’t worth as much as they once were – but they’re still worth picking up at the right price.
At the beginning of March there is a huge church rummage sale that I look forward to going to every year. This year I spent a big chunk of the day there. It is one day only, opens at 8 a.m. and closes at 3 p.m. I was there in line ready to shop at 8 a.m. But starting at 1 p.m. everything goes half-price, so I went back later in the day.
And what did I find? A HUGE tote of brand new, sealed Creative Memories scrapbooking supplies.
What the heck?!
First – amazing find. But how in the world did I miss it in the morning? I absolutely would have paid full price for all of it.
Second – why was it still there? Probably because the tote was on the floor instead of on a table so everyone just looked right over it, as I must have done that morning.
Half price made the Creative Memories items just 50¢ each!
As I type I still have three Creative Memories lots left from the rummage sale purchase available for sale. Read on to see what has already sold (listed in the order it sold).

Lots of people starting or finishing scrapbooks during all this down time, that’s for sure!
I’m glad you found those goodies!
