Important Information - Stampin' Up! Shipping prices set to increase 1 April 2022

                                       

  • Stampin' Up! Shipping charges increase 1 April 2022
  • Heads up!  Need a new Annual Catalog coming 3 May 2022?
Stampin' Up! Demonstrators this week received information from Stampin' Up! that starting 1 April 2022, standard shipping and handling rates will permanently increase.  

In the United States, standard shipping and handling charges will change from $6.95 USD or 10% (whichever is greater) to $7.95 USD or 11% (whichever is greater).

In other words, the increase is $1.00 or 1 percentage point, per order dependent on the order total.

In today's business climate this isn't surprising, and this change impacts both you and me.  Stampin' Up! is only one of many companies that have had to increase their shipping and handling costs in response to the global supply chain crisis.   Stampin' Up! has worked to manage steadily increasing costs, which accelerated and expanded with the emergence of Covid-19 in early 2020, and its subsequent ripple effect on the marketplace and supply chain.

Stampin' Up! has not initiated a cost increase to shipping and handling charges for well over a decade, even with many years of the business's shipping-related costs steadily increasing.  I want to make sure you're aware of this change, and I encourage you to stock up on basic before 1 April 2022 to minimize the impact of this change.  

Here's a list of staples you might want to stock up on the Stampin' Up! shipping increases on 1 April 2022.



Visit my Stampin' Up! on-line store to place your order for Stampin' Up! products.  Use the March Host Code if your order is between $50-$149 before shipping and tax to qualify for a thank you gift for shopping with me.  Orders over $150 earn Stampin' Rewards from Stampin' Up!, and you do not use the Host Code to qualify.  March Host Code:  QQXXP4BJ

One additional set of products you might want to consider purchasing before shipping rates increase on 1 April 2022 are the retiring In Color Items that will quickly sell out when the Retiring List is published shortly before the new Stampin' Up! annual catalog is set to be released. 

 


These staples listed above are used for almost any card you create, so stocking up just makes sense.  Additionally, In Color ink refills and other In Color items tend to sell out quickly once Stampin' Up! announces products that will retire with the release of the new Annual Catalog 3 May 2022.  Stock up before 1 April 2022 to minimize the impact of this change.

To learn more about any of these current items, visit my online store.

Ready for the new Annual Catalog?


The new Annual Catalogs will become available 3 May 2022 -- that's right around the corner! Customers who have ordered from me during the past 6 months will receive their new catalog from me automatically.  

Want to get on my mailing list to receive a new 2022-2023 Stampin' Up! Annual catalog?  Contact me here by 31 March 2022.  Then, watch your mail box in mid to late April for your copy of the new Annual Catalog.  

You can expect to see a list of items that will retire from the current Annual catalog shortly so you can order your new catalog favorites and new In Colors as soon as Annual Catalog ordering becomes available on 3 May. Due to on-going supply chain issues I encourage all of my customers to order their favorites as soon as ordering begins to avoid the disappointment of out-of-stock items. Make sure you're on my list to receive all updates.
