Tips & Tricks
Tip #1 Utilize Cash Back Sites
My preferred cash back website is Rakuten (formerly ebates), where I am able to earn cash back by clicking through the link on the Rakuten website. For example, as shown in the image, when I click through the Michaels link on the Rakuten website, I can earn 1% cash back on my purchases! There are thousands of stores on their website, and typically around the holidays the % cash back increases, sometimes up to over 10%!

Tip #2 Use Coupon Codes . . . But Read the Fine Print!
I found that many of the coupon codes available online for retailers who sell Cricut machines exclude the Cricut brand. There were a few exceptions though!
The best coupon code I could find that did not exclude the Cricut at the time of my purchase was HSN. I was able to get a 15% off my first purchase (up to $50) by signing up for their email list! HSN coupon codes change from time to time, but I linked one below!
Tip #3 Get Gift Cards for Making Your Purchase
Similar to Rakuten in Tip #1 when you purchase through Honey you can earn ‘Honey Gold’ which you can then exchange for gift cards.
I had a lot of luck with this method when I purchase by Cricut Maker from HSN. For my purchase I received 4,997 Honey Gold ($49.97) that I could redeem for gift cards at popular retailers like Amazon, Walmart & Target! The in-stock Cricut machines at HSN switch frequently so check back often to find the best deal!
