Default What do I need?

I had a SU party tonight and it's already over $500!! Now here's my problem? What should I get. I've always had small parties. Should I get 3 Level 1's or 1 Level 1 and 1 Level 3? I'm so torn. What would you all get?

It is basically up to personal choice. I had a good party this spring and I got the Tags SO Much (cause I have the tag punch), warmest regards and Riveting. I didn't care for the level 2 or 3 sets in the catty this time. Glad your party went well! Enjoy your new sets!!

It's been my experience that $500+ workshops don't come around all that often, so if it were me I'd get the Level 3 set. Congrats on your awesome sales totals! :mrgreen:

Thanks for the help...it'll be hard to decide. My best friend hasn't ordered SU in 2 years and she bought all the ones that were retiring that she wanted and spent over $400! Is she awesome or what? She says it's the same difference as me spending $30 - $50 every month but wow! I'm going to be at her house trimming a little rubbah I think!

Congrats on the great results. I say just get what you like. I have had really good luck getting Level 1 hostess sets here on the BST trade forum after they're retired for very good prices...and they've been UM too.

Is there maybe a level one hostess set that she would like that you can get with your goodies? I'm sure she isn't expecting it and I wouldn't say you're obligated to offer, but I bet it would give her a really nice warm fuzzy feeling.

Basket Full of Fun (level 3). I want this set so bad...it goes for 50, 60 dollars on ebay. I will never own at those prices. So many cute things you can do with it. I use Riveting a lot!!

Congrats on your awesome party! I had a big party in February and was finally able to get some of the basics that I had had my eye on for a long time. I got the Stampin Scrub and the Markers. It was such an exciting time. I hope that you get all the things on your wish list!

If there are A sets you just love for sure get them but I'd be tempted by level C because you can hardly get your hands on them otherwise ya know?

It's a fun problem to have!

I always opt for 10% off what I'm ordering rather than a hostess set.

it is definitely a personal preference thing...

i have all but a couple of the level one sets because there weren't any of the level 2 or 3 sets that i really liked.

Never heard of this?

And I think the OP should get whatever stamp sets she likes the best.
