My Big Lots is advertizing the Cricut Create for $99 on Thanksgiving Day.
Hope I wake up early enough LOL.

So there are a fair amount of great Cricut deals doing on this upcoming
weekend and I've resigned myself to trying to pick up the smaller model. My
question to all you experienced scrapbookers out there is this: I've seen
both the "Personal" maching and the "Create" machine being sold for the same
price. From the Cricut website, it says that the Create model "has all the
functionality of the Expression" but the smaller size of the "Personal"
model, and that it cuts as small as .25" wherease the Personal only cuts as
small as 1". I see that most of the ads are for the Personal model. Can
anyone tell me -- is it worth my effort to get the Personal machine, or
should I hold out and try to get the Create model? I'd really love to get
the Expression, but even with fantastic Black Friday sale prices it's so not
in my budget this year that it's not even funny.

Thanks in advance,
Jinx

The Create has the same functions as the Expression* but the cutting mat is
the same as the personal version (6x12). You can also make smaller cuts then
is possible with the personal cutter. I have the Expression and I had the
personal cutter but I gave it away so now I need to get the Create LOL.

*portrait mode, fit to page mode, auto fill mode, center point function, and
flip function
