Scrapbook Shopping: MAMBI Testing a Happy Planner Kit at Select Costco Stores
Well, this is fun! MAMBI is selling a Happy Planner kit at 16 select Costco’s.
It’s hard to see because the photo they provided is so small but it looks like there’s an 18-month Happy Planner, 5 rolls of washi tape, 3 pens, some pocket page inserts, 2 little paper pad inserts, etc. MAMBI says, “If all goes well, we are hoping for a chainwide set in the near future.”
To see a list of stores, check out their post on the MAMBI blog. If “your” Costco is carrying these kits, I think it’s your duty as a scrapbooker to go buy one, take photos, and tell us about it. C’mon, I would do it for you!
PS: I still haven’t decided if I’m keeping mine. Does Michaels have a so-many-days return policy?

Yes they do, I used to work there. Check the back of your receipt for details. Don’t get caught beyond the date. May your decision soon.

Good advice, Julie. I have the receipt right with the planner so I’ll see what the back says just in case. Thanks!

Where do you live? I tried to see which Costcos are carrying the kit but the link is no longer there.

I love the Create 365 embellishments but sooo don’t like their books. It’s those discs. I want something sturdier.

Yes, I have to agree the discs make my 8.5 x 11 Happy Planner feel wobbly. It’ll stay open on my desk 24/7 so I’m okay with that but if you want to carry one around, it would make me think twice. Thanks Lisa!
