    I work at a Michael’s and have always been confused on what exactly these do so I’ve never been able to answer questions about them so this was a big help!

      I'd think that Michaels would allow you to use one of their Cricuts to familiarize yourself with it so you'd be able to sell the machines. After all, you're a representative of Michaels and you should push to be the best you can be. Have you even asked for the use of a Cricut so you'd be able to sell it better? Remember, the squeaky wheel scenario?!

      @@lindataylor863 I personally wouldn’t push myself to be the best I can be and do research outside of work if I’m only being paid minimum wage. If they want me to know the products that’s something they should teach me, not something I should teach myself. If I’m being paid well though, sure, but I don’t push myself to be A+ at minimum wage jobs because they typically don’t care

    Currently I am living in Costa Rica from Miami Florida US. I hadn't the Marker give to a friend because of the weight. I was thinking Silhouette here they have Crafts store and distributor and Cricut distributor sell less in accessories. But moving to area that international carrier does charge from Amazon. Don't have cutting machine yet. My question is how to save free image until I get my machine. Silhouette sent to me by emai and it is pre set, I just added my sign in goes to my library "I own". How does Cricut do theirs for future uses until I get my Cricut.
