As a scrapbooker, we all love to have variety of shapes and fonts to unleash our creative side. With Cricut personal electronic cutters, what you can cut is limited to what cartridges you have. So the more cartridges you have, the better. Unlike before, with the Sure Cuts a Lot software (SCAL) you can cut fonts and shapes you design without actually owning a cartridge for it.

 

Cheap Cricut Cartridges

With cartridges costing $30 to $50 on average, scrapbooking can quickly become an expensive hobby. You might need a couple of designs from this cartridge, and another one from a different cartridge – it all adds up!

Sure you can wait for Cricut cartridges to go on sale at your local store, but it can be a pain if you really need that design for a specific project that needs to get done. If you’re following this strategy, however, it will be opportunistic and you need to be prepared for a rush of people during “sale days”.

You can still find cheap cricut cartridges though without waiting for Christmas sale, but you need to know where to look. You may have to scour every arts and crafts shop you happen to pass by. If all else fail, don’t worry, you can still find cartridges online that won’t cost you a fortune.

Here are the top 3 places where you can find the cheapest cricut cartridges being sold online:

1. Amazon

It’s no wonder really – Amazon is the biggest online retailer so you can also find crafting cartridges in their online store. Amazon has this FREE  Super Saver shipping where you can get free shipping for orders over $25. They offer one of the cheapest prices online and they’re backed with a guarantee so you’re getting your money’s worth without the risk of getting ripped off.

They have several buying choices with their wide array of sellers, offering both new and used stocks. You can easily check the seller’s reputation based on the feedback, so you can make an informed decision.

2. eBay

Being the largest auction retailer online, eBay offers some of the cheapest cartridges for Cricut Expression and other Cricut cutters. You can get the best deal by buying a pre-owned Cricut cartridge, however you need to be very careful who you buy from. You can also buy new but they may be more expensive. Do your research first so you’ll know your threshold price.

Always check how much the seller asks for postage and packaging as this is not reflected in the bid price. You might be surprised at the total amount you have to pay once you factor in the P & P.

3. Scrapbookpal.com

When I did a Google product search for ‘cheap cricut cartridges’, I found that Scrapbookpal.com offers the cheapest prices for some cartridges – even beating Amazon! Also, like Amazon, they offer free shipping once you order at least $25. They also offer PayPal payment option, and have a wide selection of cartridges available in their online store.

 

Here’s some more good news.

These stores also offer seasonal sales and discounts, so these cheap prices might be slashed down ever further so you don’t have to make do with what cartridge you have and treat yourself to a new one. You can even use your Amazon gift certificates (if that’s what you got for Christmas).

With cartridges this cheap, it won’t cost your relatives an arm and leg to get them for your birthday.
