The Best Deal On Paper Pumpkin

February 16, 2022 2 Comments

Your Paper Pumpkin Choices

Are you looking for the best deal on Paper Pumpkin? You may have heard the rumors, and it is true! Due to the cost increase of raw materials, shipping and overhead, the price of Paper Pumpkin is going up. And it all starts with the March 2022 Paper Pumpkin Kit.

The new cost of each Paper Pumpkin kit will keep the value and high quality standards in effect. There is nothing better than getting that orange creativity kit delivered straight to your door! With each kit brimming with supplies, you will find it easy to craft long past the kit’s limits.

A Breakdown of Costs

Of course, you may really want to know what the best deal for Paper Pumpkin is! And what the cost will be compared to what they used to cost. I will break all of that down for you here:

Paper Pumpkin Month-To-Month

With the Paper Pumpkin Month-To-Month Plan, you are paying as you go each month. This gives you the flexibility to cancel at any time, since you are not locked in to a specific subscription plan. As you can see, the price increase is $1.50 per month:

Previous Price: $22.00 (shipping included, tax not included).

New Price: $23.50 (shipping included, tax not included).

This new price is already in effect, since the next kit coming is the March Kit. If you are on this plan, you will be billed the new price on or around March 11th.

Speaking of the March Paper Pumpkin Kit…

March happens to be Paper Pumpkin’s birthday month! I have explored Paper Pumpkin kits in previous blog posts, but the best part about Paper Pumpkin’s birthday is that you get a gift! In the upcoming March Kit, titled Beyond The Horizon, you get not one, but two stamp sets…the second stamp set is free!

And if you love the New Horizons Suite Collection in the January-June 2022 Mini Catalog, you will love this Paper Pumpkin Kit!

Paper Pumpkin Subscription Plans

When you prepay, you save! And just like buying in bulk, the more you purchase, the more you save. I will break down the previous and new prices for each of the prepaid options. But first, did you know the prepaid codes for Paper Pumpkin never expire? You can redeem them anytime in the future. This is a great reason to have one or two on hand…especially now before the price increases.

1 Month Prepaid Paper Pumpkin Subscription

Besides being amazing for you, Paper Pumpkin makes a great gift. When you purchase a prepaid Paper Pumpkin, you get an email with a redemption number. When you are ready to redeem your code for a kit, you log on to Paper Pumpkin, set up your account, and activate your kit.

This makes the codes “giftable”. Yup…you can give your code away and let someone else get the kit in their mailbox instead! Starting on March 1, the price will go up $1.50.

Previous Price: $ 21.00 (shipping and tax not included).

New Price: $22.50 (shipping and tax not included).

3 Month Prepaid Paper Pumpkin Subscription

By purchasing 3 months of Paper Pumpkin, you are not actually saving money. The cost per kit is the same as the 1 month subscription. And the increase remains $1.50 per kit.

When you redeem your 3 month code, you will receive 3 consecutive months worth of kits. You do have the option to suspend a kit (cancel for a month), but this does not affect the number of kits you will eventually receive.

SPENDING TIP: During Sale-A-Bration, the purchase price of a 3 Month Prepaid Paper Pumpkin Subscription will earn you a free SAB product! (For each $50 purchase before shipping and tax = a Sale-A-Bration freebie.)

Previous Price: 63.00 (shipping and tax not included).

New Price: $67.50 (shipping and tax not included).

6 Month Prepaid Paper Pumpkin Subscription

Here is where the savings start! By purchasing a 6 Month Prepaid Paper Pumpkin Subscription, you save $1 per month. This also lessens the increase as seen with each category above from $1.50 per month to $1.42 per month.

SPENDING TIP: When you purchase the 6 Month Prepaid Paper Pumpkin during Sale-A-Bration, you will earn 2 qualifying products in the $50 Sale-A-Bration category, or 1 qualifying product in the $100 category.

Previous Price: $114.00 (shipping and tax not included).

New Price: $122.50 (shipping and tax not included).

12 Month Prepaid Paper Pumpkin Subscription

The 12 Month Prepaid Paper Pumpkin Subscription is the largest offering and the best deal for Paper Pumpkin. Again, by buying in bulk you are saving money. In fact, it is like buying 11 and getting the 12th kit free. Just think, a whole year of Paper Pumpkin creativity! And the cost increase goes from the highest amount, $1.50, as seen above to the lowest amount, $1.25, per kit.

SPENDING TIP: When you purchase the 12 Month Prepaid Paper Pumpkin during Sale-A-Bration, you will earn 4 qualifying products in the $50 Sale-A-Bration category, or 2 qualifying products in the $100 category. You can also mix it up and choose 2 of the $50 and 1 of the $100 category products. What a great time to splurge on Paper Pumpkin!

You also earn Host Rewards when your order total is over $150 before shipping and tax. That means more product for free when you choose the 12 Month Prepaid Paper Pumpkin Subscription.

Previous Price: $ 220.00 (shipping and tax not included).

New Price: $235.00 (shipping and tax not included).

Past Paper Pumpkin Kits & Refills

Another benefit that is exclusive to Paper Pumpkin subscribers is the option to purchase past Paper Pumpkin Kits and Refill Kits. This inventory will vary, and when depleted will not be refilled. Just like the Paper Pumpkin Kits themselves, there will be a price increase with the past and refill kits too.

Previous Price: Past Kits, $19.00 (shipping and tax not included).

New Price: Past Kits, $20.50 (shipping and tax not included).

Previous Price: Refill Kits, $10.00 (shipping and tax not included).

New Price: Refill Kits, $11.00 (shipping and tax not included).

Time is really running short on the pending Paper Pumpkin price increases. Remember, all the new prices go into effect on March 1. Make sure you take all the cost calculations into consideration. And factor in Sale-A-Bration freebies, which also end on February 28, to make the most of your purchase.

If you are already on the Month-To-Month Plan and would like to switch to a Prepaid Plan, you will need to purchase your selection before March 1, and redeem before March 10. Click here to order your Paper Pumpkin today! Enjoy your Paper Pumpkin Happy Mail!

My Paper Pumpkin Addiction Part III

March 21, 2020

This is the last installment of my ‘all things Paper Pumpkin’ series. If you have been following along, you know what Paper Pumpkin is and how to coordinate and organize your kit. Today I am tackling the pros and cons of a Paper Pumpkin Subscription, and what’s in it for you.

There are 2 easy ways to subscribe to Paper Pumpkin:

For $22 a month (plus tax), you can pay as you go. You simply place a credit/debit card on file when you sign up and you will be billed monthly for your kit. As with any subscription option, you can choose to skip a month if desired. And you can easily cancel your membership at any time. This is a great way to try Paper Pumpkin if you are on the fence.

Then there are pre-paid subscriptions. There are 4 options here, with a 1 month, 3 month, 6 month and 12 month choice with unique price points for each. For example, when you purchase the 6 month subscription, you save $1 per month. When you get the 12 month subscription, you actually buy 11 and get one free.

Pre-paid Paper Pumpkin subscriptions make great gifts, for yourself or someone you love. When you purchase the pre-paid option, there is no expiration date for it to be used by. In fact, Stampin’ Up only allows subscribers to have 1 Paper Pumpkin code (per email) on file at a time. This keeps you from getting duplicate kits in the same month.

Paper Pumpkin Grid Paper, #153985, is perfect(-ly cute) to stamp on!

Pros of Paper Pumpkin

Paper Pumpkin is an all inclusive kit, the only thing you need is a clear block to mount your stamp(s) on. It is a no-brainer, easy to assemble whether you are following along with the printed instructions or watching a how-to video. Also great to take on the go!
Paper Pumpkin contains exclusive stamp sets. And the stamp set and included ink spot are still valuable even after the consumable paper products are used up. In fact, you typically end up with extra consumables even after the entire kit is assembled. Refills of kits, when available, are also exclusive to subscribers.
Paper Pumpkin is delivered to your mailbox, you don’t need to add it to your purchase list for errands out and about. If you have a recurring subscription you don’t even have to remember to order it every month. It just shows up and provides you with happy mail! So cool, right?

Cons of Paper Pumpkin

Paper Pumpkin is a surprise. You never know what type of kit you are getting, the color of the ink spot, or the images of the stamp set. It is money spent without exact choice. There are no refunds or exchanges. You need to be able to make lemons out of lemonade, if need be. Thankfully, Pinterest and FaceBook provide lots of change-it-up inspiration.
Paper Pumpkin has some consumable pieces that are manufactured in nature, printed on thinner paper, that pop apart on perforations. If your intention is completely homemade and cardstock thick, you will need to do the work on your own. Granted, for “supermarket shortcut” or “half-homemade”, the images are lovely.
Paper Pumpkin provides you with an ink spot, or jackpot, sometimes two! However, you will end up with lots of duplicates in color. It is hard to get a rainbow assortment, so you may need to supplement your ink supply by other means. Ink spots also dry out quicker than traditional ink pads, so refills will be necessary with time.

What’s In It For You?

By now, you should have a great understanding of Paper Pumpkin, but the best way to make an informed opinion is to subscribe and try it for yourself!

Your happy mail will provide you with an amazing kit full of mystery and possibility. There is help galore on the internet to assemble or create alternatively. Spending time crafting will give you some relaxing alone time, or the opportunity to gather and share the experience with your friends, family or children.

The BEST time to subscribe to Paper Pumpkin is NOW. During Sale-A-Bration, which runs from January to March each year, pre-paid subscriptions earn you free Sale-A-Bration item(s). I encourage subscribers to renew during this event, because free is always a great benefit.

Pre-paid subscriptions may also be added to a party or event, where hosts earn free merchandise any time of the year. Contact me today regarding Paper Pumpkin, or sign up now at https://www.paperpumpkin.com/en-us/sign-up/?demoid=2116612. Let the pumpkin bring some magic into your life!
