So for the first time in awhile we went to Dick Blick = good.
We got there right before they closed = bad.
I did manage to grab a Staedtler Mars Plastic Eraser , a pad of Borden & Riley Paris Bleedproof Paper For Pens
, an Itoya Art Profolio
, and Prismacolor Art Stix
(err imagine a pastel stick but made out of colour pencil).
And then bad = closing time. I wanted to get some new pens and stuff, but I’ll just have to order those online.
DickBlick is having a big clearance sale. They’re mean. They’re making me drool 
Prismacolor Colored Pencil Sets Special Offer
If I could think of anyway to justify $80 on my credit card right now, I’d click buy. I’m soooo tempted. I have crappy crappy coloured pencils… so… tempted… stop me… want… to… click…now… 120 colour pencils + 12 piece sketch set + verithin colour pencils = *drool*
Seriously come break my fingers, I’m very very tempted. Ok no! Don’t come break my fingers, my three day headache is enough pain so I won’t… Argh bad bad bad them tempting me! If I hadn’t already used my PayPal money to buy *gasp* an art book, I’d so justify this much easier. But I had to get the book!
They also some good deals on papers and some paints and framing stuff, etc for my artistic friends with money! The clearance section on their site: Dick Blick Art Materials
is EVIL. Most of their site is, but especially clearance *nods*
