For a very complete list of DSD freebies and specials, visit The 3 Chickens. As you download/shop this weekend, ask yourself these questions:

• Will this freebie/purchase add value to my stash?
• Am I just buying this just because its on sale (aka “spaving”)?
• Do I have photos in mind (or an upcoming event) to scrap with this kit?

Simple Scrapper certainly wants you to support our community of talented designers, but we also want you to shop smart for stress-free scrapping!

Prices are current as of late Friday/early Saturday and are presumed to be good through Sunday. Please let me know if you notice any significant price changes.
