How do you hook up the cricut expression machine to your computer in order to use the SURE CUTS A LOT software?
I read about a program for the cricut machine that allows you to hook up the cricut to your computer or laptop. I also read that the cricut does not have a USB port. Does anyone have a cricut and use the Sure Cuts a Lot software?
All of my cricuts have a square usb port on the back. It looks like the one on my printer. The cord (you can buy at an electronic store) is a square usb on one end and a regular, rectangle, usb on the other.
Provo Craft is not affiliated with SCAL and suggest you do not use it. however I do have SCAL and have not had a problem with it and it has not interfered with my Cricut Design Studio software. My machines are no longer under warranty though. hth
http://www.How do you get decals like Browning deer heads and Ducks Unlimited duck heads for the Cricut machine?
I would like to make Browning and DU decals with my cricut Expression machine. How can I get these for my machine?
Hi RC,
Below are some places you can call by phone to see if they handle these decals. Also, Ducks Unlimited has a catalog you can send for. You can locate that info by search engine and it will take you to 5 or 6 of their web sights. If you find these, let me know as I would like a few also. ok? Some of these you will have to do a yellow pages search, etc.

How could I persuade my parents to buy me a Cricut Expression?
I am a 14-year-old girl that really wants a cricut Expression. They’re "fun, easy, and fast." One of my friends has one and she really, really likes hers, and I’m always trying to find ways to be more creative. They cost a bunch. Which is about 400 dollars including S&H, and 400 dollars isn’t anything to play with. Please help.
Tell you parents you are committed to earning at least 75% of the cost (babysit, do odd jobs, shovel snow for neighbors, mow people’s lawns – be creative) yourself. Show them you’re serious by actually doing the work to EARN that money. Once you’ve earned at least $300, make a polite, humble request to your parents to finance the rest as an "advance" on your next birthday or Christmas present.
In the meantime, ask your friend if you can borrow hers. Make SURE this product is worth it to you to spend the time it’s going to take to earn it.
Good luck!

where can i find cheap supplies for the cricut expression?
I have been to Michael’s and hobby lobby and everything is just so expensive! And the Michael’s coupons exclude any cricut products. Im really loving my cricut but i only have one cartridge
I went to JoAnne’s today and I believe the carts are on sale for around $38. I went the day after thanksgiving and bought mine at WalMart and Joanne’s for around $30. I bought Sure Cuts A Lot and now I don’t even miss the carts at all. SCAL is lots of fun and everyone is very helpful and generous. I am also a newbie. Only been doing this since I got mu Expression for Christmas. Have fun. I also hit Michael’s for the clearance 8 for $1.00 on paper.
