I need the lowdown. Tell me which one I need to punch holes with and show me a picture because I don't know what is what. Also, how much did you pay for it? They have them on amazon but I'm sure hobby lobby has them too. Last I checked they did. I want to go tonight so I can do my TP album. Yes, very obsessed, very...

It looks like this

They also have a big bite, that is more combersome but can punch on things up to a 12x12 surface. The Crop a Dile only will do about 1.5 inches in. I have both and use the Crop a Dile much more often.

I'm pretty sure that I paid for it using a 50% off coupon, so it wasn't more than about 12 dollars including tax.

I didn't have to pay for mine, I won it a few years ago when a LSS opened up. 
Love it, can't live without it!

Ok, cool. I'm going to HB after the girls get home. I think I have the 40% off coupon.

I love my crop a dile!! I have the pink one and the orange one. I paid $20-ish for my pink one about 4+ years ago. Then I bought the orange one at Walmart for about $10 about 2 years ago b/c my pink one is stuck in storage. I love it and use it alot for everything. It will punch through anything!!

You are lucky! I ended up buying the smaller one because I didn't want to spend so much and the hole it makes seems small to me. Are there attachments? The hole size is 1/16 in.

Ugh, I got the wrong one... I should have gotten the green one which is 1/4 inch. Instead I got this http://store.scrapbook.com/wr-71273-2.html?t12-13=...

If you are stuck with it, you can always punch the the original punch hole a little bigger by just punching a little further out if that makes sense?

I'm still trying to figure out if I should keep it. I know what you mean though. I do have to go back to get the rings since I forgot so ill try to return it and just get the big one and be done with it. I think I was just being frugal thinking I never use that eyelets so why have the bigger one in the first place. Not the big bite but the middle one I mean.

I have this one.
http://store.scrapbook.com/wr-70908-4.html
It punches 1/8" and 3/16" holes, and sets the matching eyelets and other stuff which I haven't investigated yet! The girls are right, it only has a smallish reach, but it works fine for most projects, and it is really easy to use. It punches through thick chipboard like butter. I love mine.
Watch the little video on that product to find out about it. I'm just watching it again to find out what I've forgotten!

Ok girls I got the pink one like you all have. I'm a bit cranky that I'm stuck watching the kids outside when I could be playing with my loot. Lol I might be able to tinker tonight after I put the house to bed...

I chose orange. 
They are fun. You'll be punching holes in everything for a while, just to see whether it can! Or was that just me?

umm..... well... what if you still get amazed by it and occasionally punch things at random just to see if it punches through?
