Bumping :bump:

I might want to join, but I have no clue on what I could find for a summer swap...??? I am out of ideas....I've also never tried a swap before...

it's so much fun lucie!! it is so great getting a nice surprise! hope you join!!:D

Lucie, I hope you join also. Its lots of fun and the neat thing is that each pkg. you get is a total surprise.

Think of some fun things for outside:

- anything for picnics (napkins, tablecloth, plastic glasses)
- anything for the garden
- think beaches (beach towels, Frisbee, tanning lotion)

They really are fun to be a part of.

:bump: to keep this open for a couple of hours before I assign partners later.

Would someone please explain what a swap is? Are they new items? Do you swap with just one person?

slowtypinwoman - we are having a swap each month. Sara tells us what the swap will be for. We then purchase something pertaining to that swap in the value of $10.00. She also specifies when we have to have it in the mail to the member she has assigned to us.

Sara assigns each person who signs up a member to send to. She will be doing this later today I think.

Then we all wait patiently for our pkg. in the mail. You can sign up for any month if you so wish, or just once if you want to. Its entirely up to you.

sara, do we have partners yet??;) ;) i have no patience!!:toothy:

Ok thank you. Since the deadline has past I'll waitfor the next one. Sounds like fun though.

Please contact your partner for their address and to gain any ideas of items they may like. Swaps sent out deadline May 26th
Please let your partner know if you will be late sending.
