Don't know if it was a bargain or not, but I finally purchased a Cricut cartridge. Got Mickey and Friends at Wal-Mart on clearance for $35. They had the Mickey fonts for $35 too, but I couldn't justify 2 cartridges, especially as I am wanting to buy the SCAL program.
Scout Lady, your recent post about the programs has me convinced this is the way to go for me - I think the older I get the smaller my learning curve gets.) My 15 year old DD programs my cell phone for me and my 11 year old DS works the DVD player. At least I can still use the computer.........
