I had a Sizzix Big Shot Pro on my request list for Christmas. I guess I had been naughty in 2010 because Santa opted not to bring me one. I have managed to live without it, checking on the prices periodically, and today when I checked JoAnn's they had it on sale at the best price I have seen. Yet, here I sit on the fence debating with myself about actually making the purchase. I guess what I am asking is how often do those of you who own these machines actually use them? My friend has an Accuquilt and uses it all the time. If she lived close to me I would use hers. I am thinking that it would be great for all those scrappy quilts where you only want 1 or 2 cuts of the same fabric or for trimming left over pieces that would otherwise have to be cut one at a time. I need some feedback. I keep hoping someone will post one for sale used but so far no luck on that front. Talk to me here people. Ann in TN
