I just bought one from Jo-ann's, and got it 150 off. Yeah. I've been up in my sewing room trying to use it. Pretty simple. I think I will really like it, when I get down to business. Got one pattern[die] of squares and triangles with it. I've been cutting squares from scraps. Easy, but I can see I'll need more than one mat if I use it a lot. also a big hand full of money for other dies.LOL Oh, Well! Mine was 199.99.
