   How much is a Cricut Access membership? I’ve been on the fence about getting one of these!

  I believe you can also get the membership for 99.99 for the year. But if you do monthly your not contracted and can cancel anytime

   I was interested in getting one to cut HTV for shirts for my kids, does anyone have experience with this machine? Would it do the job?

  Yes it will do the job! I’ve made tons of shirts and Halloween costumes with it. You just need to be sure you have a good iron or a heat press. I currently do mine with an iron

   Interesting onlinement at the end of the post. I attempted to use my mother in laws cricut before purchasing a machine & found it quite difficult. She received it less than a year ago and already sold it because it was such a pain. I purchased a silhouette & LOVE it. After watching a few YouTube videos & following some silhouette groups It was so easy. I’ve made tons of shirts, decals and other things already without any issues. Also, FYI for anyone checking out this deal I suggest you avoid purchasing cricut vinyl. There are cheaper options that are much easier to use and hold up wayyyyy better!

  I would actually say the opposite. Cricut and the Design Space web software couldn’t be more intuitive and user friendly. I also really like their vinyl and also use Oracel 631/651 vinyl too. I think it’s each user to their own. Cricut also has great contributors like Melody Lane and TroyTube who have amazing YouTube videos that teach you in a snap.

  I hate the cricut craft room. I’ve owned every cricut since the original release and use my silhouette because of the software.

  I’m a newbie & love crafting. Making printed t-shirts is something I would love to do. What is the difference between an explore, an explore air & an explore air 2?

  I agree I’ve made so much! Yesterday I made 8 shirts! Tons of you tube videos. I don’t use cricut vinyl though. I can find cheaper brands that are very high quality. I love my machine!

  Which one(s) do you suggest? I just purchased a cricut last week and have lots of plans. Especially since I just got engaged.

  Something to think about if you are debating Cricut vs Silhoutte…the Cricut software needs internet. The Silhoutte software is a download. Both have advantages and disadvantages, just something to note.

   If you live near a Menards store, check for the Cricut Explore. My store has the Explore Bundle on clearance for $99 after sale and rebate. The rebate is a check that can be used at a Menards store (similar to a Home Depot store in what they sell). Here is a link….

   I LOVE my Cricut!! I bought the Air everything bundle a couple of months ago. I’ve used it dozens of times already! I’ve made oodles of cards, shirts, banners, wall decals, car window decals, window clings for holiday decor, customized wedding gifts, personalized birthday gifts, a sight word flash card game, and I used it for glass etching for the first time tonight. If you love to craft, I highly reonlinemend getting one!

   Just something to consider though, the new Design Space software does not work well with older onlineputer operating systems. My onlineputer is about 10 years old and still uses Vista. I’ve had someone problems from time to time because the Explore Air is too high tech for my onlineputer. I still use it all the time, I just run into snags when I try certain features.

   Darn! I waited to long. The Cricut with the Everything starter set is out of stock. And I didn’t notice until I had already signed up for Cricut Access. Instead of a good deal, I paid $10 for nothing. Go me!

  What is the difference between the explore and the air? I’m def a novice so I’m wondering how much I really need/want to invest for occasional crafts with my kids?😬

  The Explore will need the Bluetooth adapter if you want to use or wirelessly the Air has the Bluetooth built in.

   I’m not sure how to use both coupons. The Hip2save coupon code as well as the cricut member discount. Please advise.

  Hey Shar! After signing up for Circut Access, you’ll get an automatic 10% off at checkout. AFTER you see that discount, you can enter the promo code HIP2SAVE and you’ll score another 15% off + FREE shipping. Hope that helps!

    is it better to get the bundle “Explore Air Machine and Everything Starter Kit” with the discount or just go ahead and get the new Explore Air 2 without discount? I’m brand new at this 🙂
