I have had my Cricut Expression for a while now, and I have never really paid attention to the infomercial. But today while I was getting ready for my day it came on, I could not find the remote so I left it on. They are showing some really neat stuff on that commercial! But what I really want is the "Instructional DVD's" that they said come with the bundle. Nothing like that came with mine! Does anyone have them? I am gonna call Cricut and ask if they can be purchased...

I didn't get an instructional dvd with mine either. It would be very nice to have one.

I love watching that infomercial. If you want to use your cricut to it's fullest potential I would suggest trying to find cricut classes in your area. That seems to be a good way to learn about the machine, it's features, and what you can do with it.

I think Janine should become a traveling Cricut demonstrator. She can do so much with hers that she could stop in each of our towns and teach us!

I got the instructional DVD with my cricut expressions and it's an exact repeat of the information that they offer on the website. The DVD only showed how to get started, put incutting blade, load paper etc. hope this helps!

I wander how many times those ladies had to make things and redo them because they messed up on something I have never had a new project to work exactly the way it was suppose to Just like the fishing shows, how long do they stay out in the water before they actually catch a fish
