I never spend more than $10 on mine but I don't count items I make using my stash or if I put second hand books or magazines in. Also unless I have bought fabric specifically requested then I don't count anything taken out of my stash. I sometimes pad out the package with favourite recipies, guides to my local area none of which cost anything. Hope that helps.

I ordered some fabric for her as this is a rural area and not many choices for fabric shopping. I really hope it gets here before the deadline! Otherwise I'll be sending a supplemental package.
