If you know someone who is crafty and they don’t already own a Cricut machine, stop what you’re doing and buy a Cricut JoyXtra bundle. I just got one for one of the crafty people I love and it has absolutely delighted them in the way the best presents should. The Cricut JoyXtra produces professional results from a machine the size of a bread loaf, and it’s getting its first good sale since launching in August.
I’m still working on my Cricut JoyXtra review, but I’m having an absolute blast and I don’t miss the features I had on my more capable Cricut Explore. There is also a great Cricut Explore 3 Black Friday sale for $249.99 (down from $319.99) if you want to take your hobby further. The professional-grade Cricut Venture is also on sale for $799, which is $200 off the normal price, but if you’re just getting started with Cricut, you really should just buy a basic Cricut Xtra bundle to get every tool you’ll need.

The Cricut Joy Xtra is pretty new, so the machine by itself isn’t on sale, but every bundle is at an all-time low price, especially if you shop directly from Cricut. You get the right tools and materials to make stickers, greeting cards, or vinyl decorations, depending on the bundle you choose. You’re going to want them all eventually, trust me, because the Cricut is an addictive hobby with limitless possibilities.
There are plenty of third-party materials that work with Cricut Machines, but in my experience the name brand Cricut material is worth buying on sale. The machines are precisely calibrated to cut those materials so they are the easiest to use for beginners. Cricut vinyl and ink can be more expensive than generic brands, so shop around the Cricut Amazon store on Black Friday to score a discount.
