I don't cut either. I fold the fabric and line it up on three sides and let the overflow go at the 4th side and cut. No waste of fabric that way. And it saves time from precutting pieces.
The key is to also when you get those dies is take a permanent magic marker and trace the outline of the die. This way you can easily see where to place it everytime.
