I have a Go Baby and my die uses a 6"X"12. Instead of buying a 6x12 mat I ordered a 6x24 for two dollars more. It should last at least twice as long and possibly more if I can shift the actual cutting area each time, by a few inches instead of just flipping the mat. I considered that it might be a pain dealing with the extra length but once the die is through it should just slip out so I consider it worth it. Just thought I'd share!

I think I'll get about 2/3's more life out of it. It got here today and I'm able to get unlined up cuts in three places on each side!
