Saying goodbye to some wonderful products won’t be easy. The two catalogs below end on June 3. However, the retiring list, which was released today, marks much of it as “while supplies last.” I’ve been mentioning the 2017-19 In Colors as typically the first to go. Bet on it.
All retiring items are only available while supplies last and will be discontinued after June 3.
Due to high demand for retiring stamp sets, these items will have guaranteed availability until May 24; all other products are not guaranteed and are available while supplies last only.
Depending on inventory levels, discounts on select products may be introduced on or after May 9
Find the retiring list by downloading them below (pdf’s and Excel)
There are some product changes coming with the new 2019-2020 Annual Catalog in June. These are some major changes and you can make sure you take advantage of the inventory while we have it. Once the retirement list is announced, all the products will sell out quickly.
Stampin’ Up! is releasing a new Die Cutting system. This new system will replace the Big Shot and its accessories. The good news is that with this change, Stampin’ Up! will work directly with the manufacturer when it comes to all products for this system. Stampin’ Up! is also releasing a new paper trimmer. There is still no release date for the new products. This also means that the new catalog being released in June will have no Big Shot or paper trimmer. But they are coming.
I would advise to stock up on any of the items for the Big Shot or paper trimmer that you need. The scoring blades and mats for the trimmer are already sold out. There are also many accessories for the Big Shot that you can still pick up. None of these products will last long next week. All of the products will no longer be available once they sell out. So shop my online store with some of the links below to get the supplies you need before the retirement list is announced.
