O.K - so I have been thinking about buying a little laminator to keep here at the house for emergencies and to laminate games and stuff that I find in this wonderful world I like to call Blogland!! :) I asked around at school, and a friend of mine had bought one and she liked it but didn't really use it that much, but it worked pretty good. Well, hubby and I were at Costco earlier this week and they had one.....so.....of course I had to buy it. Wanna know what the best part was??? THE PRICE! It was only $18 bucks!! Now, I haven't really priced them or done ANY research on them at all, but I figured for $18 it could break after the first month and I would have gotten my $$$$ out of it!! (It also came with lots of little pouchy thingys too!!) Well, so far so good! I love it and it has made these snow days actually pretty productive!!! :)
Happy Laminating!! :)
Love this snowman game I bought from Kathleen Pederson! She is awesome!! Of course I had to mount on polka dot paper!! :) You can see that the polka dots carry into our house too...do you see the chair cushions?? :) I just can't help myself!!!
Love it! Especialy the polkadot seats.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE my laminator - this one is a little bit different than mine, but it looks like it works the same. LOVE the snowmen on the polka dot paper too! Too cute! It looks like little snowballs! You can get this unit over at TpT: http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Hats-off-to-Snowmen-A-Literacy-Center-for-CVC-and-CCVC-Words
ReplyDeleteThanks for the link. I meant to link over there before I published. Sorry! It was late. :) I spelled your name wrong too. :) I fixed it. :). It does look like little snowballs doesn't it. :). Can't wait to try it with the kiddos this week.
ReplyDeleteHi!
ReplyDeleteI bought a laminator 3 years ago from Sam's Wholesale...it is the BEST ! I have saved so much time by having a lamintor at home. I really think it is the MOST used teaching tool I have ever purchased! Also,the quality of the film is so great.

The film is really great isn't it!! It is perfect for all those little game pieces and game boards!!!!
ReplyDeleteI would love to buy one of these! What is the brand that you bought? Is it cool or heat sealed? I was looking on the website and they have two. Which did you buy?
ReplyDeleteI think the name of it is Purple Cow?? It is does both heat and cool stuff!
ReplyDeleteI bought the same one from Costco. It has been great and for the price you can't beat it! With all the great games that you find on blogs and TpT, I have put it to good use already. Do you know where to purchase the refills of laminating pockets when we run out?
ReplyDeleteLove your blog!!! It looks amazing!

I actually saw them at Hobby Lobby the other day - I think they were the big ones - and I'm thinking that they were like $12 for 20 or so...I was gonna search around the web and maybe on Amazon to see if I could get a better deal. If you find anywhere please let me know!! :) I am almost out and I just got the thing!!! :)
ReplyDeleteThank you for the kind words about my blog! I had an AWESOME designer!! :) Pamela at the Posh Box is awesome!! :)
Sam's Club has the laminating sleeves for 20 dollars for 200 sheets at their store. I love my laminator. I use it all the time at home.
ReplyDeleteGood to know!! Thanks edegrote!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the info. I will keep a look out and let you know if I find a better deal.
