IT's evil!!!!
Most of the things I wanted were already gone. But I managed 7 books anyway (GAH!!!) people on Raverly were complaining about it taking awhile to load pages etc. so be warned of slow page loads (I am on cable so didn't really notice much) |

Jamie of Interweave sent me that this morning but I won't be shopping:
Hi, Interweave Press will be opening its annual online hurt book sale at 10 am MDT today. This news release is embargoed until that time, but we’re inviting you to take a peek at the preview pages. Just don’t announce the sale to your readers before 10 am Mountain (and no personal shopping until then either)! Feel free to call me with any questions. –Jaime Guthals, 502.243.6834 EMBARGOED UNTIL JULY 11, 10 AM MDT INTERWEAVE PRESS ANNOUNCES 2007 HURT BOOK SALE Shop online for 50–80 percent off your favorite craft books Loveland , Colo. , July 11, 2007: Interweave Press announced today its annual, highly anticipated hurt book sale, beginning today at 10 a.m. MDT at http://www.hurtbooksale.com/hurt More than 125 craft books will be deeply discounted and sold online only on a first-come basis until inventory runs out. This is a great time to pick up bargains on both hardbound and softbound books about beading, jewelry making, knitting, crocheting, felting, spinning, weaving, needlework, and other popular crafts. Hurt books are still in good condition but imperfect in quality and have minor dings such as a scratch on the cover or a bent page. The savings run deep and some books will be combined for greater discounts. For example, the knitting titles Scarf Style and Wrap Style from the popular Style series will be available at 50 percent off individually ($10.98 each) or for $15 plus shipping if ordered together—that's over 65 percent off the retail price! Other sought-after titles to be marked down for the sale include The Beader's Companion by Jean Campbell and Judith Durant, The Knitter's Companion by Vicki Square, Felted Knits by Beverly Galeskas, and Beaded Embellishment by Amy Clarke Moore and Robin Atkins, as well as rarer titles such as the Weldon's Practical Needlework volumes—the perfect gift for needlework history buffs and a fantastic value at 50 percent off the original price of $30 each. Hurt books cannot be combined with normal products at check-out and phone orders will not be accepted. All sales are final and books are nonrefundable. About Interweave Press LLC |

FYI
Thank you for your email. I’m very sorry about the bad experience you had on our website today. In anticipation of today’s sale, we increased the bandwidth by six times the amount we had last year. Unfortunately, that was not enough. We’ve increased the bandwidth again this afternoon and now the site is working. I’m sorry for the frustration and stress that we’ve caused you—that was certainly not our intent! Please accept my sincere apologies—we do appreciate your business. Amy Sapp Customer Support |

I almost ordered more . . . but I'm trying to be better.
I've ordered so much yarn and books in the past few months  . . . I need to exercise a little restraint for a while.
But this sale was just too good to pass up.
