Ali Express update
About 6 weeks ago I wanted a particular stamp set used online and found it dirt cheap on Ali Express. I asked you all if any of you had bought from them. Those who had said they had no problems, but shipping was slow since it literally came on a slow boat from China. I placed an order for a total of 11 items. They were a combination of dies and stamps. Including shipping, the total was $22. They have all arrived and are fine. Unfortunately, I can no longer remember what card idea I wanted to make with the original stamp set. So, my advice is that it is safe to order from them, but you need to write yourself a note why.

I always take a screenshot of the original idea and refer back to my photos for my brain dead self! Not implying you are brain dead, but certainly imply to me!
Re: Ali Express update
Check back on the aliexpress site and see if they used that card as their example. Sometimes they do that.

That sounds like something I’d do. I also buy unusual foods for recipes and then can’t remember the recipe.

Another note on Aliexpress vendors.... make sure you follow through on confirming what you've received from orders. Take a photo of the package if anything is missing... and take a photo of what you DO receive.... then upload those in the comments section where you're confirming things. I've had vendors re-send the missing pieces... and have also had them just issue a credit.

Re: Ali Express update
I don't cook much so it doesn't happen in the kitchen, but I can sure relate to not remembering what I wanted craft supplies for when I get them. Like Debbie, I try for a visual reminder. Years ago I relied on saving the image from a blog or website to a file on my computer, now I stick them on a Pinterest board. I also save YouTube videos to watch later, if that's where I saw the idea and buy the supplies. And if I see the idea in an LSS I do take a photo on my phone. Of course with all the different types of inspiration available now it might take awhile to find it again - I'm thinking Debbie's idea to always take a screenshot might be smarter because then it would all be together.
