ATTENTION ARTISTS!!! 12 Years, 9 Months ago Karma: 16
Hello my loverlies!!!

Today, I got a nice e-mail from dickblick.com, informing me of a 70% off Strathmore Paper sale.

At first I was like "Oh... Strathmore is expensive, 70% off won't make the paper cheaper than what I pay for an off brand anyway"

I was grossly ignorant.

www.dickblick.com/products/strathmore-sketch-paper/

Head over there. The Spiral Bound 100 sheet Sketchbook is one of my ALL TIME FAVES, but I never buy this brand because it runs into the eight dollar range at art stores. It is normally 6.29 on dickblick, but RIGHT NOW, you can get them for $1.88 (you'll need to add shipping and tax though)

I purchased 10 sketchbooks for a total of 18.80, and after shipping and tax it was 27.88. If we divide that up, it comes out to about 2.79 per sketchbook, and the cheapest I have found this kind of sketchbook off brand is 3.49. TEACHERS! Use your discounts! And keep the receipts (students and teachers alike) because this falls under school supplies and is a total write off for taxes.


If you have the means, and are looking to stock up for the fall school season, now is the time to do it. They will continue the sale until they are sold out, and it isn't just sketchbooks. Look through ALL their paper. Vellum, bristol board, tracing, etc. It is all discounted.

And nobody smack me for posting like this... its a really good deal. I wanted to share. ;_; DUN HATE MEH!

How long does this savings last till?Its clearance, so it last til they run out. i was reading about it, it's all stuff that is discontinued. So the company is changing the look, count or paper itself, no longer selling that exact product. I would advise to keep an eye on it every other day or so if you cant buy now. artist are known to stock up on good deals. i know i do, obvious totpants does! ^_^ and again thank you for sharing this! I'm kinda mad though i get the dickblick emails too, and i didn't get this one :[

Mebby I ish speshal?

I also follow their facebook and they announced it there as well.

If they are replacing merchandise, it might be a good idea to watch chain stores (walmart, target, meijer, whatever) if they carry them. They may get marked down along the lines there. For now, they have made it clear this sale is online only.
