CANADIAN OOT BAG info...where to shop!

Where did you find the printable puzzle book?? I'd love to use that!

Thanks Tracy or the info on the print out. I do have that one actually from another bride on here, but I thought since I was down there I would try and find them. I think the print out will work fabulously, I just wanted to see if I could save myself some more of the DIY time as I have a lot to do still.
THanks for posting that though - I know alot of other brides will use it for sure!

I'd been looking at this site and seriously considering getting mine here but it all depends on numbers. I asked for a quote to ship here and for smaller numbers, the shipping was nearly twice the cost of what my bags would be!! Count yourself lucky on this one if you don't have high shipping costs. That being said however, the bags still worked out to just over $2 each which in the long run isn't bad at all. It just sucks to have such a great per piece cost and have it more than double because of shipping with little change with the volumes many of us are working with. (30 bags was about $2.30ea. while 60 bags was about $2.20ea.). BUT it's a GREAT find for you over the ones from discount mugs!!!

Thanks for posting this link! A few of us have been talking about this one on the side as well. One idea was to laminate some cardstock or similar to make a front and back cover so that the booklets would be a bit more durable and still simple and easy to personalize.

Ok so it totally took me what felt like hours to find the original post that I seen the printable puzzle books in...it's a really old post(last year) and I have no idea how to transfer the info to this post keeping all of her links clickable! (I'm a copy and paste gal) Also I don't have enough "POSTS" to download the template so I'm patiently (not!) waiting. There are lots online - I just googled it but didn't really look into the format or anything to see what they looked like once printed.

She has an attachment for a poolsize puzzle printable booklet which I really want - but this whole # of posts thingy is limiting so maybe if you do a search on the forum it will come up - like I said it's a post from 2008...
Her profile name is LisaW...I think!

Hope this helps a bit!! )

Ok so if you search "printable books" in the forum search bar you will get a few threads...not that many.
The template is in the:
"How do you set up to print double sided? For a puzzle book for OOT bags...LisaW" thread!

Sorry for the backwards way about it I don't know how to make it any easier!! lol
But she has the template for the poolside puzzle book that I cannot attain because I am not worthy yet...just under 100 to go!! lol maybe 80...

) cannot post fast enough!

SuzieQ76, you are the best ever! Thanks so much for taking the time to dig that up for me! I don't have enough posts either, but my boss is away today, so I guess that'll be my goal for the day!! lol

POST! POST! POST!

Anything for a fellow Albertan!! lol

Well I'm a fake really - have only lived in Calgary for 2 years, originally we both came from Nova Scotia - where the beer is always cold and the seafood is always fresh!! lol

But our little one was born in Calgary, Bred in NS ;o)!!

Oh SNAP! Just realized you're from Calgary! And headed to the same resort as me! PM me your email and I'll give you the low down once I get back from Mexico!!

 

Sorry, to the other OOT thread users.. just to make this relevant, I saw canvas totes with plastic pockets to put pictures in at the Dollarama.. $2 each. Regretted my own OOT bag buy at that moment, as these ones you could easily personalize with pics of bride/groom or guests.

Amandseth, that tarantula freaks me out!

OMG I've been looking for a few months at Dollaramas for tote bags...those jerks! Too late for me, I've already bought mine from cheaptotes....
that's always the way, eh?

Hahahhaha, Billisa, that's one of the small ones of the 4 we have!! lol My fiance is an entomologist, so he likes his creepy crawly things... We actually successfully attempted to rear praying mantis' last year... unfortunately Alberta is just too dry and we lost them before they grew to full size.

 

Yeah, I was choked when I found those great bags at the Dollarama, after I'd already got mine. Have kicked myself over a few other items as well, but I guess that's the price you pay for trying to be proactive! lol
