Thanks for sharing your tips on the grab bags!  I've only seen them in "my" store one time and it was purely chance.  There was a lot of good stuff in it -- so-o much fun to open!

You got an awesome score! I bought one on Tuesday, which had some really good stuff in it. And then one of the doctors I work with, her and I went Wednesday at lunch. The manager was making more boxes from the remainder of the things they had on the shelves, and the doctor asked her if she could give us a box and we could make our own? I was thinking there’s no way this lady’s gonna say yes. She said well I’m not supposed to, but sure. And we each got to make our own box to put in whatever we want it that was out on six different shelves plus I got a giant Nutcracker and three green garlands. One of my best scores EVER! 😊

What a score!

Wow you definitely SCORED!! I was able to get one the year before last and it was packed!!❤❤❤ I guess it’s time to go visit Michaels lol. Thank you for sharing

back in 1990 my grandmother saw someone with a poinsettia sweat shirt. She fell in love with it and asked the lady where she had gotten it. One of the ladies family members made everyone one of these sweat shirts. They either had the a huge poinsettia on front of of it or smaller ones around the collar. All they had done was place the leaves down and used that puff paint in the little squeeze bottles from Walmart to attack it to shirt. I know our local Dollar tree has those paints individually too. When i saw that huge poinsettia i was thinking oh that would look beautiful on a T-shirt.. I personally never wear sweat shirts but i love my T-shirts. Wish our micheal did these boxes because i will not wear plain t-shirts. This would put some of mine to use for at least nov thru dec.  
I also loved the black poinsettias. Would make beautiful t-shirts too.  Oh you got the white ones too. I could make a shirt or sweatshirt for each of my friends 6 kids and a shirt for my kid.
The candy cane count down i would paint over the words and use it for a actual interactive Calendar. That would be so stinking cute.
the turquoise ribbon would be a beautiful easter color.

Every year I say I'm going to buy at least 2 boxes....and I never do.  It's just that I live in a small town and Michaels is about an hour away, so I never make it there when this is happening.  I'll get lucky sometime, I hope.  Thanks for sharing.

I have seen some beautiful black Christmas decor. Black and gold are very popular colors and black and green. I'm doing pink and black on one tree this year I'm so excited

WOW! Your haul is amazing! Such cute pink things! Thanks for tip on using our carts and when the grab bags are available. I have my eye on some ornaments but thought that 70% off in March was still too much to pay. Now I know the trick!

What amazing boxes!  I was excited right along with you.  Your store associates did a great job at packing the boxes.  Lately my store has been random like a whole box of the same items.  I keep items in my cart like you suggested and forgot to go to Michael’s Monday lol!  Thanks for sharing your score!  Have a good week!

You got some Amazing boxes!! I got 2 great ones last year, not nearly as full as yours though lol. I’ll have to get to my store and pick up a few. I’ve been impatiently waiting for them😂. Have a great rest of the weekend.😊

Your Christmas countdown, can be painted over and instead of numbers, put Christmas activities and movies and you can "roll" the dice or die and do whatever activity lands face up. (I hope that makes sense)

My Michaels in Indiana hasn’t had any yet???

Love this thanks for sharing I'm in New Jersey someone had told me they come out in March with the grab boxes here I was there the other day and didn't see them going to give him a call hopefully they'll give me an answer over the phone

Fabulous!  You definitely got some great items.  Thanks for sharing.  You said something about the Freebie Guy.  I looked him up on youtube and all his videos seem to be from several years ago.  Can you send me his name or link or something in case I don't have the right guy.  Thanks!

I love those sleighs
