They have 8 by 8 mulberry scrapbooks you can print off your pages to fit onto these books pages. Of course, they're $1.00 each.

no way - must have to stop after taking my kids to gymnastics! Might be prefect just in time for Xmas albums!

Thanks for the info! I'll have to hit Dollar Tree while I'm out tomorrow!

Of course, I went with the absolute best color in the world. It wouldn't fit all the way in my dinosaur HP Scanjet 4470C, but here is the one I chose.

Thanks for the tip. I'll have to get in there and pick up a few. I'm always looking for gift albums and you can't beat that price. I've just recently starting scrapping 8 x 8 and love it.

OH THANKS!! Wow I hope they've got some here at our Dollar Tree!

PLEEEEEEASE note!

While $1 is a great deal there are some "issues" with these albums just for your knowlege ahead of time. They are 8x8 with the cover meaning the pages are like 7.25x8 (not square) so if you scrapped that way you will have a white border and print smaller than 8x8 or you will crop off some of your page. Also there are no sheet protectors with the pages so if you have little ones that are going to look at the book, I'd pass. But this probably could have been remedied with other sheet protectors, except they are the wrong size for the book (8x8 plus the binding). So if you were going to print out your pages and you don't mind the weird size and no sheet protectors, then have at 'em. But I went today and was dissappointed that I spent the gas $ to find out that they wouldn't work for me! Just to give you some more info. It still is only a $1 so I shouldn't complain, right!

Yes, I was disappointed, too. These albums are not at all what I expected. I guess there is a reason why I usually don't go to Dollar Tree.

Anyways, thank you wikdevilgoddess for sharing your find with us. It may not work for me, but I sure hope that someone can make use of this awesome deal. Can't beat $1!
